Safety Manager Introduction

Safety Manager combines Honeywell’s proven Quadruple Modular Redundancy (QMR®) 2oo4D technology with extensiveprocess 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.

Safety Manager 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.
