Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) are designed to protect employees, equipment, and the environment against the risks associated with the processing of toxic or flammable fluids. A Safety Instrumented System consists of: Logic Solver/PLC Logic Solver PLC that compares process conditions to predetermined process limits Sensors Level, temperature, pressure, and flow sensors to monitor process conditions Final Control Element Valve, actuator, and solenoid assembly to shutdown the supply of toxic or flammable fluids in case of an emergency Flow Pres Solenoid...

Probability of Failure on Demand (PFD) There are three recognized techniques for determining Probability of Failure on Demand for a SIS. They are Simplified Calcula- tion, Fault Tree Analysis, and Markov Analysis. Simplified Calculation is both the least complex and the most conservative: PFDavg = (Failure rate)2 * test interval Failure Rate = 1 /MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) The Safety Integrity Level (SIL) of the Safety Instrumented System (SIS) is obtained by adding the PFD value of each of the components in the SIS and then comparing the value to the figures in Table 3. For example,...

Common Methods of Partial Stroke Testing Partial Stroke Testing (PST) Since an Emergency Shutdown Valve is typically static in the full open position for long periods of time, it is necessary to test its functionality from time to time to prove its reliability and availability in accordance with its SIL rating. In the past it was necessary to fully close the valve during testing, requiring the plant to undergo a costly shutdown or install an expensive bypass valve. Now, however, modern-day “Partial Stroke Test” devices promise to eliminate those costs while simultaneously improving safety....

Common Partial Stroke Test Methods (con't) In effect, none of the conventional Partial Stroke Test devices that exist today deliver a high-value combination of functionality and price. Some have reasonable prices, but their functionality is too limited. Others have excellent functionality, but are too complex and excessively priced. Instrument Panel Fortunately, TopWorx has created Valvetop™ D-ESD Valve Controllers - a low-cost, high-functionality partial stroke testing solution. The D-ESD hits the "sweet spot" of the market by combining the advantages of common partial stroke test devices...

Valvetop D-ESD Technical Information TM Once fitted to the valve and actuator and installed and powered up in the plant, the Partial Stroke Test position is set on the graduated cam to 10-20% from the fully open position. The unit is calibrated by pressing the push button provided on the Sensor Control Module and holding it for 5 seconds. During calibration a partial stroke test is automatically performed, recording the stroke time in the non-volatile memory. The unit is now completely calibrated. Partial Stroke Testing Partial Stroke Testing can now be performed in the field by pressing...
