    Process Safety Reliability & Efficiency

    EMERGENCY SHUT-DOWN

    Safety in the Process Industry is currently playing an increasingly and vitally important role.In a more complex and multi disciplinary engineering environment there is a growing need for engineers,technicians and management involved in process engineering to be aware of the implications of designingand operating safetyrelated systems.Emergency Shut !own components and systems were prepared by the ma"or Standards organi#ations inEurope and the $S.%ombined with the actuated shut down valve, ES! Solenoid valves are the final defense against a plantfailure causing a catastrophic accident. ES! solenoid valves are connected to a P% and together withsensors form a Safety oop. 'henever the sensors detect a dangerous or ha#ardous situation it isessential for the solenoid valves to reliably exhaust air from the actuator in the shut down valve(s so thatthey return to a fail safe mode by means of spring force )fail close(open*.

    Improved reliability

    For systems that operate continuously (continuous mode) and systems that operate more than

    once per year (high demand), the allowable frequency of failure must be determined. For systems

    that operate intermittently (less than once a year / low demand) the probability of failure isspecified as the probability that the system will fail to respond on demand.

    Calculation of safe failure fraction (SFF) determines howFail-safethe system is. his compares

    the li!elihood of safe failures with dangerous failures. "eliability by itself is not sufficient toclaim a S#$ le%el. here are charts in #&C'*+ that specify the le%el of SFF required for each

    Specific techniques ensure that mista!es and errors are a%oided across the entire life-cycle.

    Certification to a Safety Integrity Level

    he #nternational &lectrotechnical Commissions (#&C) standard #&C '*+, now #&C & '*+,

    defines S#$ using requirements grouped into two broad categories hardware safety integrity andsystematic safety integrity. de%ice or system must meet the requirements for bothcategories to

    achie%e a gi%en S#$.

    he S#$ requirements for hardware safety integrity are based on a probabilistic analysis of the

    de%ice. o achie%e a gi%en S#$, the de%ice must meet targets for the ma0imum probability ofdangerous failure and a minimum Safe Failure Fraction. he concept of dangerous failure must

    be rigorously defined for the system in question, normally in the form of requirement constraints

    whose integrity is %erified throughout system de%elopment. he actual targets required %arydepending on the li!elihood of a demand, the comple0ity of the de%ice(s), and types of

    redundancy used.

    Process Safety Reliability & Efficiency

    The risk potential relating to a process technology system is determined in accordance with IEC61511. A risk reduction should be implemented to address the particular risk involved. Thecomponents used must meet the reuirements o! IEC 615"# or IEC 61511 i! this risk reduction isachieved through the application o! electric$electronic automation technology. %oth standardsdivide systems and risk reducing measures into sa!ety levels& these ranging !rom 'I( 1 )indicatinga low risk* to 'I( + )indicating an e,treme risk* based on IEC 615"#.

    IEC 61511is a technical standard which sets out practices in the engineering of systems thatensure the safety of an industrial process through the use of instrumentation. Such systems

    5. =uidance for the determination of the required safety integrity le%els

    4. Hardware safety integrity which refers to the ability of the hardware to minimise effects ofdangerous hardware random failures, and is expressed as a PFD (probability of failure to danger)

    value.5. Behavior of the system following the detection of a fault condition. Safety-related systems need tobe capable of taking fail-safe action, which is a systems ability to react in a safe andpredetermined way (e.g. shutdown) under any and all failure modes. This is usually expressed asthe Safe Failure Fraction (SFF) and is determined from an analysis of the diagnostic cover thedesign can achieve (see below).

    . The new important parameter introduced is Safe Failure Fraction (SFF) which is a measure of

    the cover and effectiveness of the diagnostics in the system. In order to accommodate earliersystem designs based on high levels of redundancy and lower levels of diagnostic cover, thestandard considers the complete system architecture in the assessment of the SIL achieved.Maximum SIL rating is related to Safe Failure Fraction (SFF) and Hardware Fault Tolerance(HFT), according to Table 1 shown below.

    7. Systematic safety integrity refers to failures that may arise due to the system developmentprocess, safety instrumented function design and implementation, including all aspect of itsoperational and maintenance lifecycle safety management.
