EEMUA has released a new edition (Edition 2) of its publication EEMUA 222, ‘Guide to the application of IEC 61511 to safety instrumented systems in the process industries’.
Written by leading experts, including from EEMUA member companies and with input from the GB Health and Safety Executive, EEMUA 222 provides guidance and recommendations on the application of the IEC 61511 standard for the specification and implementation of safety instrumented systems designed to bring a process plant to a safe state should a hazardous incident occur.
EEMUA 222 is intended to explain how to use the IEC 61511 standard effectively and addresses the responsibility and deliverables of organisations involved in the specification, supply and maintenance of safety instrumented systems.
The second edition of EEMUA 222 has been extensively revised to reflect the greater maturity of the standards and the understanding of functional safety in general. There is new coverage on points of difficulty that are likely to be encountered and where standards currently lack detailed guidance.
