Preventing Systematic Errors and Reducing Test Intervals
Thomas Fritz, Global Process Safety Manager & Kris Worfe, Endress + Hauser
Expo A1
In chemical production plants, the periodic testing of SIL safety devices is still carried out annually in most cases. For flow measuring points in particular, the associated inspection effort is immense because the instruments must be removed for calibration to test them in the calibration lab. The risk of additional systematic faults during manual testing and parameter configuration — such as during recommissioning — is significant. To address this, solutions are available such as automated proof testing, which automates the test process in combination with the safety control system and Heartbeat Technology from Endress+Hauser. This avoids systematic faults, extends plant operational time, and reduces testing efforts.
