`Trusted' will find the faults in new Sicilian LP gas plant
29 Mar 2000
ICS Triplex has been asked to provide an integrated turn-key control and safety system for the new liquid petroleum gas storage plant which is being built at Raffineria di Milazzo, Sicily.
For simplicity, the refinery's operators wanted combined emergency shut down (ESD) and fire & gas (F&G) detection functions. ICS's `Trusted' TMR (Triple Modular Redundancy) safety system was recommended to fit the bill.
The TUV AK6 certified Trusted TMR is suitable for use in emergency shut-down, fire & gas and other critical control applications. This fault tolerant solution can maintain safety performance at 100 per cent, and the resultant 600 I/O count from the Milazzo plant's control system is well within its capabilities. It connects via dual serial link to a 600I/O DSC and a UPS.
