Introducing Logix SIS: Solution for Process Safety

Introducing Logix SIS: Solution for Process Safety

The Challenges

“There are no highly available solutions to achieve safety in the latest hardware (5580)”

“I have to budget for implementation cost/time with the ControlLogix® SIL 2 w/ 1715 solution”

“I am unable to use additional features available with the newer I/O systems in ControlLogix® redundancy safety systems”

The Challenges

The Solution

  • Adds safety into 5580 redundancy
    • Achieve SIL 2 or SIL 3
  • Leverages the latest controller and I/O solutions
  • Expands upon existing safety implementation
  • Supports the following:
    • Concurrent safety execution
    • Concurrent communications for standard and safety I/O
    • Granular safety signatures
Logix SIS Solution for Process Safety

Configuration details

  • Functionality unlocked with only a firmware update
    • Available with V37.011 firmware
  • Safety configurations are now handled completely by the controller
    • Custom AOIs are no longer needed
  • Concurrent safety execution in the primary and secondary controller
    • Enables embedded safety diagnostics that are transparent to the end user

Features

  • Enhanced containerization for safety edits
    • Leverage granular safety signatures
  • Utilized the latest 1756 hardware (5580) to build this solution
    • There are no new specific catalog numbers required
    • Take advantage of the latest I/O platforms (5094, 5015)
  • Additional instructions supported
    • Leverage instructions added to Ladder Logic Safety Editor
Logix SIS Features

Avoid downtime during updates

  • Upgrade to future versions for new features while running
  • Leverage Redundancy System Update (RSU) to update all parts of the system:
    • The controller
    • The communication modules
    • The redundancy modules
  • NO downtime is needed to perform the RSU
    • The secondary chassis will be unavailable during the update

Targeted Applications

1.General Process Safety

Simplex IO is required for non-critical functions such as horns, lamps, and safety gates around machinery

Oil and Gas

2.Hybrid Safety

I/O availability is not the priority

Redundancy controllers provide the best flexibility

A mix of safety and standard control loops in the same controller

Reliability is very important; shutdowns are not OK

3.Tunnels/Transportation/Baggage Handling

Simplex I/O is required for non-critical systems

Redundant I/O will reside on critical systems such as fans

Simplex Safety I/O will be wired with relays in the event of I/O failure

4.Entertainment

Controller redundancy for availability

Simplex Safety I/O for fail-safe applications

5.Multi-zone control of robot lines that utilize machine safety

Each zone can be shut down independently

The controllers failing would shut down the entire line i.e. more important than I/O

6.Green Hydrogen

Emerging market with large growth potential
