Customer Pain Points

• It is necessary to detect and monitor combustible, toxic, and flammable gases in real-time, and issue alarms/warnings to ensure the safety of the production environment.

• In the event of an alarm, emergency measures such as sound and light alarms, valve shut-off, and activation of the fire protection system should be initiated to respond quickly to dangerous situations.

• Necessary disposal measures should be taken in the face of danger to ensure the safety of the production environment.

• High reliability and real-time response are required for equipment/instrumentation and control systems

Our Solutions

• The adoption of the Siemens PCS7+SIS solution enhances system reliability and redundancy through redundant design.

• The control system is remotely centralized and uses flame-retardant shielded cables to reduce the risk of safety accidents.

• When an abnormality in the production environment is detected, the system will interact with the fire protection system and take preset disposal measures for rapid response.

• Advanced and stable safety instruments from around the world have been selected, meeting relevant certification requirements for accurac

Implementation Effect

• The system achieves 7x24-hour online monitoring, capable of real-time monitoring of the safety status of the production environment.

• The control system is centrally set up, with localized alarms and dispositions having no impact on normal operation, ensuring continuous and stable production.

• The system effectively safeguards production safety and life safety, preventing the occurrence of hazardous events.

• The system can connect with the national regulatory platform, realizing a "five-in-one platform" that enhances the efficiency of supervision and management.
