ProSafe-RS
The ProSafe-RS safety instrumented system is a TÜV certified Safety Instrumented System (SIS) for use in SIL 1, 2, and 3 applications in a single modular configuration, with superior availability in a redundant configuration. It can be a standalone system or tightly integrated with our CENTUM VP Distributed Control System. Yokogawa industrial safety systems minimize interruptions with highly reliable protection at all SIL levels, real-time dashboards, quantifying current and future risks, and virtual scenario testing to assess the impact of future bypasses and overrides. Online modification, which allows plants to continue to run during upgrades, automated compliance reporting to optimize testing frequency, and cradle-to-grave service and lifecycle assurance. As the last line of defense, the safety controller must act reliably exactly when it needs to. Yokogawa's exclusive Versatile Modular Redundancy maintains unlimited SIL 3 operation even under multiple failure scenarios.
