SIS Sensors
Perhaps the simplest form of sensor providing process information for a safety instrumented function is a process switch. Examples of
Safety Instrumented System (SIS)
A Safety Instrumented System (SIS) is engineered to perform “specific control functions” to failsafe or maintain safe operation of a process when unacceptable or dangerous conditions occur.
SIS Final Control Elements
When a dangerous condition in a volatile process is sensed by process transmitters (or process switches), triggering a shutdown response
