Safety Instrumented Systems: A Life-Cycle Approach

"Understanding the safety life cycle as outlined in ISA/IEC 61511 isn''t enough to implement a safety system. You also need to know how to design, install, commission, and operate one, and to have access to real-world examples," says author Simon Lucchini.

Authors Lucchini and Paul Gruhn have compiled almost 80 years of real-life experience and lessons learned into this easy-to-read reference that contains real-world examples of designing, installing, commissioning, programming, managing, and maintaining safety instrumented systems.

This is a practical, how-to text designed to guide functional safety engineers and others in process industry safety to the right decisions about safety systems at the right time.
