  1. 01

    Safety systems act on what your instruments report.

    • Instruments feed control and safety systems in refineries and chemical plants.
    • Plants shut down based on those readings.
    • Wrong readings mean the shutdown does not happen when it should.
    ASK
    Are your instruments used in safety instrumented functions?
  2. 02

    Safety certification depends on the shipped configuration.

    • Instruments in safety functions are certified with documented design and failure data.
    • Certification is tied to specific hardware and firmware.
    • Product outside that configuration invalidates the safety case.
    ASK
    How are certified safety configurations controlled through build and firmware release?
  3. 03

    Instruments connect into plant control networks.

    • Modern instruments are networked with configuration software you supply.
    • That software runs inside customer control networks.
    • You become the vector across every plant using the product.
    ASK
    How is instrument firmware authenticated before it can be installed?
