SIL rupture dics
08 September 2014
The IEC industry standards detailing the safety performance requirements for hazardous operations have been widely adopted by many industries (IEC 61508 and IEC 61511). However, the requirement within high integrity industries, like the Oil and Gas sector, to further quantify levels of compliance within these standards has led to the implementation of the Safety Integrity Level (SIL).
In response to customer requirements Elfab is now able to assist engineers working within stringent SIL rated conditions.
Elfab rupture discs and burst detection assemblies make a valuable contribution to these systems. Rupture discs have become an increasingly popular method of pressure relief in modern process plants with ever-increasing safety standards and environmental considerations.
