Enhanced version of ProSafe-RS Safety Instrumented System

21 November 2008

Yokogawa Electric Corporation has released an enhanced version of the ProSafe-RS Safety Instrumented System, ProSafe-RS R2.02.00. This version adds an output module for use with alternating voltage power sources and offers improved maintenance and documentation functions that make this system ideal for widely distributed upstream processes, including wellheads and pipelines.

These enhancements meet users’ latest requirements for safety instrumented systems, and strike the perfect balance between improved operational efficiency and safety in upstream and downstream processes.

Yokogawa has achieved connectivity between ProSafe-RS, Stardom, and the Fast/Tools Scada system over a single network based on the Vnet/IP real-time control bus and dedicated to upstream processes.

An output module has been added for connecting directly to devices such as emergency shutdown valves that use a 100-120 V AC power source. This eliminates the need to set up relays for such devices, simplifying system configuration and improving maintenance efficiency. This module complies with the IEC61508 international safety standard and is certified to the SIL3.
