A COST-EFFECTIVE SOLUTION TO PREVENT TANK OVERFILL

摘要

AnnCharlott Enberg, functional safety manager at Emerson, explains how radar gauges with innovative 2-in-1 technology can provide two independent layers of protection against spills, in compliance with the relevant safety standards. When process vessels or storage tanks contain hazardous, flammable or explosive materials, overfills can have catastrophic consequences, including injuries or even death to personnel, as well as significant asset damage, extensive environmental harm, and the blighting of an organisation's reputation. For these reasons it is essential to invest in a robust safety instrumented system (SIS) that complies with the relevant industry standards.
