| Summary | Annotation Do you have trips and safety interlocks in your plant? Are they good enough or are they perhaps over-designed and much more expensive than necessary? Are you or your company aware of how Hazard Studies should define risk reduction requirements? Are you actually using Hazard Studies at all?<br />The answer is the integrated approach to safety management. New international standards combined with well-proven hazard study methods can improve safety management in your company.<br /><br />Practical Hazops, Trips and Alarms for Engineers and Technicians describes the role of hazard studies in risk management, and then proceeds with basic training in Hazop techniques.<br />A number of practical exercises support the reference information and allow you to test your understanding of the material in the book.<br /><br />This book aims to bridge the discipline gap between hazard studies and the provision of safety-related alarm and trip systems. It provides training in hazard and operability methods (Hazops) and in the principles of safety instrumented systems as defined by international standard IEC 61508.<br /><br />1. Design an integrated safety management system to increase efficiency and reduce costs<br />2. Learn how to carry out hazard and operability studies (Hazops) and find out how to convert Hazop outputs into safety requirements specifications<br />3. Implement safety instrumented systems to the new IEC standards (IEC61508) |
