EC50: Safety Instrumented Systems - Design, Analysis & Justification

 

Training:

Training can be conducted at your plant site or as open enrollment. ISA Onsite Training brings ISA courses to your site. The expert instruction and training materials will come directly to you. All you have to do is pick the time and place - ISA does the rest!

 

Description:

Engineering requirements for the specification, design, analysis, and justification of safety instrumented systems in the process industries are the focus of the course. Methods of analyzing process risk, determining system performance requirements, and analyzing proposed systems to see if they meet those requirements, are covered.

 

You Will Be Able To:

* Differentiate between process control and safety control

* Understand the design basis of recent and upcoming standards, guidelines and recommended practices including ANSI/ISA, IEC, AIChE, API, NFPA, IEEE and OSHA

* Evaluate process risk levels and determine system performance requirements

* Analyze the full impact of redundant sensor, logic, and final element configurations, as well as the impact of diagnostics, test intervals, common cause, system size, and more

* Specify and select various safety system technologies

* Determine optimum manual test intervals for any system

* Satisfy the documentation requirements for process safety management and regulations and industry standards

 

You Will Cover:

* Introduction: Acceptable Risk | Reliability vs. Safety | Danger of Overconfidence and Complacency | Lessons Learned From Past Accidents

* Guidelines and Standards: ANSI/ISA | AIChE | IEC | API | NFPA | HSE | IEEE | OSHA

* General SIS Design Considerations: Design Life Cycle | Separation of Control and Safety | Independent Safety Layers

* Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment: Hazard Identification | Risk Assessment | Determining Safety Integrity Levels | Qualitative vs. Quantitative Methodologies

* Failure Rates & Modes: Safe vs. Dangerous | Failure Mode vs. Technology | Failure Rate and MTTF

* System Technologies: Pneumatic | Relays | Microprocessors | Field Devices

* Operations and Maintenance: Installation | Bypassing | Testing | Management of Change

 

Classroom/Laboratory Exercises:

* Calculate device failure rates and determine safe vs. dangerous performance

* Model system performance for relay and single, dual and triple PLC logic systems

* Model the impact of field devices, automatic diagnostics, manual test intervals, common cause, and more

* Determine the SIL (safety integrity level) of a sample process and design an SIS to meet the performance requirements
