- How to Prevent the Five Most Common Industrial Alarm Management Issues
I am consistently asked what my favorite and least favorite control systems are to work on. from system to system. Ideally, a control system would be “ air-gapped ” in order to minimize the possibility of introducing Upon entering the control room, my colleague and I were greeted by what is inarguably the nicest control systems.
- Designing Operator Tasks to Minimize the Impact of Heuristics and Biases
This is the theory of System 1 (i.e., Fast) versus System 2 (i.e., Slow) thinking that explains we are really two people: Our conscious aware selves (System 2 thinking), and a dominant “fast” subconscious making most of our decisions (System 1 thinking) without being consciously aware of it in the moment This paper proposes a combined approach of discussing the cognitive psychology behind System 1 and System will incorporate the learnings from 5 years of safety critical Task Analysis performed for field and control
- The use of Bayesian Networks in Functional Safety - Whitepaper
Looking at actual accidents caused by control and safety system failures shows that accidents are not It’s up to management to control these factors.
- How Can I Effectively Place My Gas Detectors
incorrect detector placement far outweighs the probability of failure on demand (of the individual system components) in limiting the effectiveness of the gas detection system. An effective gas detection system has three elements: 1. purposes, i.e. detection of toxic or combustible levels, voting requirements, alarm rationalization , and control Topics include: Instrumentation, Reduction of Risk, Risk Assessment, Protection, Detection System, Alarms
