Rockwell Automation has released its updated process safety logic-solver platforms to better maximize uptime for industrial producers who want to help ensure compliance with the latest safety requirements. As companies face increasingly demanding process safety applications ranging from new installations to managing the installed base of legacy systems, the AADvance fault-tolerant systems and Trusted fault-tolerant systems utilize the common SIS Workstation software to help producers meet the requirements of their process safety functions. These systems also help to maximize uptime through increased scalability, communication and resiliency features. All systems are compliant with the IEC 61508 functional safety standard.
SIS Workstation software: The latest SIS Workstation software converges the AADvance and Trusted design tools into one, resulting in easier system to support. Through the merging of technologies, users now only have to learn a single platform, which helps to ease training and streamline communications for topologies using both platforms. The SIS Workstation software also uses a singular, more modern configuration environment for both the AADvance and Trusted systems, which helps to enable faster and more reliable field commissioning and is supported by Microsoft Windows platforms.
Trusted fault-tolerant SIS: The newly updated Trusted system is designed to execute code up to three times faster for higher-speed applications, such as turbomachinery control. The system includes triple modular redundant (TMR) controllers, an expanded range of analog and discrete I/O modules, and specialty modules for turbomachinery control.
The system is designed to help minimize system trips and provide higher availability and fault tolerance. The latest release also incorporates improved packaging to help enhance its performance in harsh environments, including applications in hot and humid conditions, such as offshore oil and gas operations. It is also designed to help meet or exceed the latest hardware design standards, which provides more robustness in environmental and emissions performance at the board level.
AADvance fault-tolerant SIS: The newly updated AADvance system features more enhanced communication compatibilities with other plant-wide systems, such as ControlLogix controllers. By more safely sharing information, such as diagnostics and alarms with other plant assets, the overall ability for operations to respond to abnormal situations can be improved.
