Periodic proof-tests are a necessity for point level switches that form part of a safety instrumented system (SIS) in liquid level measurement applications. In this webinar, we will review traditional and next generation methods of performing proof-tests and examine how partial proof-testing can be performed remotely, increasing safety and shortening test time. We will then compare the different test methods and explain how integrated functionality within the latest devices can reduce complexity and save significant operational cost.
You Will Learn:
- How partial proof-testing can improve plant and personnel safety and may provide significant cost savings.
- How integrated remote partial proof-testing capability of the latest vibrating fork level detectors provides a safe, quick, simple, and cost-effective way to establish their integrity in an environment representative of normal operation.
- How integrated remote partial proof-testing technologies are less complex, reducing the risk of human error and saving maintenance costs.
- How this method can enable full proof-test intervals to be safely extended to five or even ten years, thereby providing the freedom to schedule such tests around planned shutdowns and securing significant operational cost savings.
