Course Introduction:

You are here, reading this course, because you are well aware of the role of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS), in protection of assets and people. In recent years, there have been extensive studies on the best ways of making our process plants safer and the conclusion is, that by just doing one thing right, which is -increasing the reliability of the safety related Instrumentation and Control systems in a plant, can make these plants much safer.

This 5 day course focuses on the management, planning and execution of automatic safety systems in accordance with IEC 61511, the newly released international standard for process industry safety controls.

Course Objectives:                                                   

Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:

·         Discuss the fundamental knowledge of IEC 61511 and IEC

·         Comply with the IEC 61511 and IEC 61508 standards

·         Configure safety systems to minimize or avoid spurious trips and create the potential to reduce production losses.

·         Explain the key design and procedural requirements of IEC 61511 to ensure safety systems comply with the best international codes of practice.

·         Set up function safety management procedures to meet international standards and be prepared for independent assessments.

·         Plan and integrate all stages of a safety system project.
