ABB Ability SafetyInsight

Safety Manager is a SIL 3 certified system, which minimizes incidents, maximizes production uptime, reduces the cost of compliance, and manages plant safety. Safety Manager is our second-generation safety platform. Based on the same Quadruple Modular Redundant (QMR) architecture as its FSC predecessor, it goes further in minimizing incidents, maximizing production uptime, reducing the costs of compliance, and managing plant safety. Safety Manager combines a rack-based design with remote IO capabilities. Introducing Universal IO, Safety Manager can help customers distribute their safety control architecture across the plant(s) saving money by reducing wiring and conduit. Safety Manager integrates process safety data, applications, system diagnostics, and critical control strategies, and executes SIL-defined safety application logic in a fully redundant (2oo4D) architecture. Safety Builder provides plant-wide management of safety-critical databases and application programming.

In spite of decreases in CAPEX and OPEX, operators today must minimize unplanned downtime while maintaining functional safety compliance according to ISA84/IEC 61511. Is your operation able to accurately track data for safety system performance monitoring and compliance? Throughout the plant lifecycle, Yokogawa’s Sustainable Functional Safety Management (FSM) solution continually analyzes all demands for safety action and failures in process operations vs. Safety Performance Indicators. This process provides continual safety performance updates to all plant personnel. Active management of operational safety information enables continuous compliance with IEC 61511 and ISA84 over the entire asset lifecycle. Once the operation has completed the safety instrumented system (SIS) design and layer of protection analysis (LOPA), the configuration of process safety monitoring is automated. Our sustainable FSM solution also automates change management.
