OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Proof-test Requirement

Repair and Replacement

Notification Of Failures

During operation, a low-demand mode SIF must be proof-tested. The objective of proof-testing is to detect failures within the equipment in the SIF that are not detected by any automatic diagnostics of the system. Undetected failures that prevent the SIF from performing its function are the main concern.

Periodic proof-tests shall take place at the frequency (or interval) defined by the SIL verification calculation. The proof-tests must be performed more frequently than or as frequently as specified in the SIL verification calculation in order to maintain the required safety integrity of the overall SIF. A sample procedure is provided in the section “Proposed Proof-test Procedure” on page 13.

Results from periodic proof tests shall be recorded and periodically reviewed.

Repair procedures in the Mobrey product document M310 must be followed.

In case of malfunction of the system or SIF, the Mobrey level switch shall be put out of operation and the process shall be kept in a safe state by other measures.

Mobrey Limited must be informed when the Mobrey level switch is required to be replaced due to failure. The failure shall be documented and reported to Mobrey Limited using the contact details on the back page of this safety manual. This is an important part of Emerson Process Management’s SIS management process.
