Even after 30 years, the disaster comes as an example whenever there is any discussion on process safety. After this incident, a fundamental need has grown for change regarding safety control in the process industries. There has been an increasingly strong focus on identification and control of potential hazards with the help of automation technology. However, regardless of the selected combination of safety measures, there is always some residual risk. The key is to reduce this to an acceptable level. Elements of automation technology have been getting used more to reduce risks. The new international application-oriented standards have been created with a HIGH RESOLUTION comprehensive approach to determining safety requirements and implementing functional safety in industrial plants. But at the same time, due to growing complexity of process installations facilitated by continuous (and faster) THERMAL IMAGING development of sophisticated designs of process control and safeguarding technology, maintaining safety in processes and operations has become increasingly complex and costly. Companies have difficulty demonstrating a clear return on CAMERA investment in their safety activities. But they need to understand that while the thermoIMAGER TIM 640 NEW cost of safety in process industries has far exceeded estimates from the dawn of the provides VGA resolution modern safety era, the benefits of safety are more tangible and substantial as well.

Based on published material it shows the technical principles of the various approaches and tries to put these into perspective. The content given represents my best knowledge of the systems introduced. Since the company I work for is member of all relevant fieldbus organizations and supports all important open fieldbus and Ethernet standards, you can assume a certain level of background information, too. The slides were shown on ETG Industrial Ethernet Seminar Series in Europe, Asia and North America as well as on several other occasions, altogether attended by several thousand people. Among those were project engineers and developers that have implemented and/or applied Industrial Ethernet technologies as well as key representatives of some of the supporting vendor organizations. All of them have been encouraged and invited to provide feedback in case they disagree with statements given or have better, newer or more precise information about the systems introduced. All the feedback received so far was included in the slides. You are invited to do the same: provide feedback and – if necessary – correction. Please help to serve the purpose of this slide set: a fair and technology driven comparison of Industrial Ethernet Technologies.

  • Opensafety – the Open Source Safety Solution
    MMC 2013 CAN in Automation Opensafety – the open source safety solution Miodrag Veselic (Bernecker & Rainer) The safety requirements for mobile machinery have increased considerably since the introduction of the new Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC). The new standards have resulted in new approaches to the design of safety technology. Integrated safety solutions allow safety signals to be used for automation as well. New features increase machine availability, reduce the number of required sensors and decrease the overall complexity of safety solutions. Opensafety is the world’s only open-source safety protocol that enables safety communication via any protocol available on the market. In addition, the Opensafety stack is pre-certified for SIL3 by TÜV-SÜD and TÜV-Rheinland. With no licensing costs and a free, pre-certified software stack, users benefit from greatly accelerated time-to-market. Basic safety requirements The procedure for reducing risk to an acceptable minimum is defined in EN ISO The failure of components – in vehicles for 12100 - Risk assessment and risk example – can be minimized through well- reduction - see also Figure 1. defined rules and regulations. The In the first step, hazards and hazardous transformation of the Machinery Directive situations are evaluated on the bare into the Product Safety Act (ProdSG) machine. The assessment must be carried provides a solid technical basis and, in out throughout the entire life cycle of the Germany, a legal framework as well. machine (manufacture, transport, commissioning, etc.). In the second step, risk is estimated by determining the likely extent of damage and its probability of occurrence. The last step, risk evaluation, involves an assessment of whether objectives for risk reduction have been achieved.
