Safety Manager
Process Solutions
Safety Manager combines Honeywell’s proven Quadruple
Honeywell’s Safety Manager, part of the Experion® Process Knowledge System
(PKS), enhances the safety, reliability and efficiency of critical processes.
Experion® PKS – The Knowledge to Make it Possible.
Modular Redundancy (QMR®) 2oo4D technology with extensive
process safety management expertise in integrating process
safety data, applications, system diagnostics and critical control
strategies.
Honeywell’s IEC 61511 and IEC 61508 SIL 3 TÜV certified
solution provides the optimal level of safety and process
integration while still maintaining functional safety separation as
mandated by those standards. Through Experion operational
integration, all systems are unified into one operationally
integrated architecture, providing a unique opportunity to improve
safety, process availability and efficiency.
Experion provides unprecedented connectivity through all levels
of process and business operations to optimize work processes,
improve routine maintenance efficiencies, enhance safety
management and release personnel from manual processes.
Benefits
Safe and Secure – Safety Manager is designed to be securely
integrated into customer systems and has passed very
rigorous security testing as defined by ISA Security
Compliance Institute (ISCI).
Safety Manager was the first safety system to achieve
Embedded Device Security Assurance (EDSA) certification.
ISCI developed this certification within the framework of the
ISA Industrial Automation and Control Systems security
standards (ISA 99). Because of the built in protection
mechanisms, the Experion Safety Manager is protected from
cyber attacks and disruption of service.
High Availability Architecture – Honeywell’s field-proven
QMR 2oo4D architecture provides the highest availability with
a safe architecture. Applying QMR technology allows
uninterrupted process operation in the event of any system
degradation or on-process modification without jeopardizing
the SIL 3 level. The optional Safety Manager A.R.T. (Advanced
Redundancy Technique) provides additional benefits for
locations where timely maintenance is not available.
Easy and Intuitive Engineering and Modifications – Safety
Builder, an intuitive and comprehensive configuration tool,
provides plant-wide management of safety-critical databases
and application programming for easy network design. TÜVapproved, menu-driven online modifications prevent errors
while maintaining and optimizing the safety application.
Defense-in-Depth – SafeNet and remote distributed Safety
Manager provide the ability to design defense-in-depth safety
strategies that maximize safety and security while minimizing
risk and scope-of-loss concerns.
Safety Networking - The networking capabilities of Safety
Manager are unsurpassed. Up to 1024 redundant nodes can
be included in one safety network, acting as one integrated
safety solution. The SIL 4 certified SafeNet communication
protocol guarantees fast and safe communication over any
media and distance. The remote management capabilities
support centralized management of all connected safety
systems.
Safety Manager 2
SafeNet Flexibility - SafeNet can run over any network, such
as a dedicated separated safety network as well as the
Honeywell Fault Tolerant Ethernet (FTE) network
infrastructure. SafeNet is the only SIL 4 certified
communication protocol available in process networks today.
Self-Learning – Replacing any module, including the safety
processor, is possible when the plant is in operation, and data
and programs are automatically copied from the running
processor. There is no manual loading required, which
simplifies handling and avoids problems. The total system will
continue to meet the stringent SIL 3 requirements.
High Performance – Safety Manager has been optimized to
manage large applications with over 1,000 I/O as well as highspeed applications with fast processing requirements of cycle
times well below 100 milliseconds.
Universal Safety I/O – Safety Manager Universal Safety I/O
enables maximum architectural flexibility and lowest cost of
Localized Safeguarding - With Universal Safety Logic Solver,
the safety application can be distributed into the field close to
the process unit while maintaining a transparent overview of
the overall safety application. The unique feature of this
Universal Safety IO module is the fact that besides being an IO
module to Safety Manager, it can execute the safety
application locally. Safeguarding the process even in the event
communications to the Safety Manager are interrupted.
Standardized Solutions - Universal Channel Technology
enables Universal Cabinet designs to be standardized,
significantly reducing engineering cost and schedule when
applied broadly across a project.
Advanced Experion Integration – Supports Safety Manager
integration in Experion, providing an integrated safety and
control solution. It enables, for example, transmitter data
sharing between the CEE (Control Execution Environment)
controllers and Safety Manager, via direct peer to peer
communication, to save installed and operational costs. Peer
to peer communication further allows for alarm suppression,
automatic bypassing and interlocks between shutdown and
control functions as well as “soft landing” in case of process
upset. It also provides easy operator access and full Console
Station support. As part of the “enter data only once”
philosophy, the Experion-related properties are configured
from the Safety Builder tool simplifying maintenance and
reducing total cost of ownership.
ownership when safety is required at distributed locations. It
has the unique feature that each channel can be configured
individually to a different I/O type. Every Universal Safety I/O
module has a capacity of 32 freely configurable channels,
enabling savings on both installation and operational costs. By
using soft-marshalling, the Universal Safety I/O module can be
mounted close to the process unit, eliminating the need for
marshalling panels, homerun cables and reducing or
eliminating field auxiliary rooms. This approach is ideally suited
to highly distributed applications such as oil and gas upstream
applications, and reduces cost while increasing availability and
efficiency. This reduces overall capital expenditure, as well as
maintenance costs.
Built on QMR Technology – Safety Manager is based on the
unique and field-proven QMR diagnostic-based technology
with 2oo4D architecture. QMR enhances system flexibility,
increases diagnostic messaging capabilities and improves
system fault tolerance for critical applications. It enables the
handling of multiple system faults within Experion Safety
Manager, matching the needs of critical control applications.
In addition, Safety Manager provides the basis for integrating
SIL-rated field sensors and valve actuators, ensuring that
safety functions are well established to protect complex and
hazardous processes. It integrates SIL 1-3 safety transmitters
(such as Honeywell ST3000 and STT250) or safety valve
positioners for improved safety and field asset management.
