This May, we're focusing on one of the most vital components of process safety: Alarm Trips. Our featured content includes the whitepaper Safety Instrumented Systems: Choosing the Right Logic Solver, offering guidance on selecting the right logic solver for your SIS, and an application note on Redundant Trip Sources that explores strategies for increasing reliability through alarm redundancy. We also spotlight the 330R2 Digital Process & Temperature Panel Meter & Alarm in a video showcasing its role in real-time monitoring and alerts. Finally, our featured product, the SPA2IS Intrinsically-Safe Alarm Trip, delivers built-in I.S. protection, making it ideal for hazardous-area alarm applications.
We delve into the gap between single-loop Logic Solvers and larger safety systems, and present innovative solutions to close that divide. We'll cover essential selection criteria, including performance, cost-effectiveness, ease of programming, open communication protocols, cybersecurity, and operational reliability. By the end, you'll have a clear understanding of how to choose the right Logic Solver to strengthen your Safety Instrumented System and ensure safer industrial operations.
In critical process applications, a single alarm trip may not prevent costly equipment damage, production loss, or environmental harm. That's why redundant alarm trips are essential, especially for pump protection, pH deviation, high vibration, rapid temperature rise, or pressure spikes. When a PLC or BPCS offers only one trip, adding a stand-alone solution like Moore Industries' SPA2 provides needed redundancy. With its independent, hardwired design, the SPA2 ensures reliable protection, even during common-mode failures.
330R2 Digital Process &Temperature Panel
Meter & Alarm
The 330R2 Digital Process & Temperature Panel Meter & Alarm is a compact, field-programmable 1/8 DIN panel display designed for a wide range of industrial applications. Featuring universal input, dual process relays, and optional 4–20mA output, it's ideal for control and alarming tasks. With a rugged NEMA 4X/IP65 front panel and easy setup via pushbuttons or PC software, the 330R2 delivers reliable performance in even the most demanding environments.
The SPA2IS from Moore Industries is a universal, programmable limit alarm trip designed for reliable on/off control, process warnings, rate-of-change alarms, and emergency shutdowns. Ideal for hazardous areas, it eliminates the need for separate intrinsically-safe barriers by providing built-in intrinsically-safe field connections. Versatile input options include current, voltage, RTDs (23 types), thermocouples (9 types), resistance, potentiometers, and direct millivolt sources.
