Safety Instrumentation System – ProSafe-RS

World’s First Truly Integrated Safety Controller.
ProSafe-RS is Yokogawa’s IEC61508 and ANSI/ISA 84 compliant safety system. It has been used in over 2,400 projects, ranging from large scale integrated process automation projects to stand-alone solutions. Yokogawa’s ProSafe-RS safety systems are built with competence, life cycle support and long term sustainability.
Yokogawa puts an end to DCS-SIS incompatibility with the ProSafe-RS, the world’s first truly integrated “safety PLC” for the process industries. Achieving absolute integrity between distributed control system (DCS) and safety instrumented system (SIS) for plant automation has traditionally raised complex design and integration issues. Conventionally, two separate monitoring and operating environments were required for a DCS and SIS. Different communications and distinctive hardware architectures had to be set up. Plant managers striving to optimize process operations have taken it as a given that project time and expenses would escalate.
10 years and thanks for the future. ProSafe-RS was released in February 2nd 2005. It can be fully integrated with CENTUM series integrated production control systems, and is certified for use in SIL3 applications. Since its release, ProSafe-RS has been implemented in more than 2,400 projects around the world.
In February 2015, Yokogawa was awarded the Japan Techno-Economics Society’s President’s Award.
