Whether on an oil platform or in natural gas production, in some industrial sectors, even the smallest compromise is a compromise too many. Where the potential risk is extremely high, you require a safety controller that always runs error-free and that is resistant to cyberattacks. With the Planar4 system from HIMA, you benefit from a hardwired controller that is extremely robust and resilient. It also complies with relevant current standards. And it is the only controller that is approved for implementation up to SIL 4 in accordance with IEC 61508 Edition 2 (2010).
BENEFITS
Platform for the World's Most Critical Applications
Highly Robust
Highly Robust As Planar4 is hardwired, it is not programmed with software. This makes it extremely resistant to all kinds of errors.
Certified Safety up to SIL 4
The Planar4 safety controller meets the requirements stipulated in the highest safety level SIL 4 in accordance with the international standard IEC 61508 Edition 2 (2010).
Extremely Resilient
The autonomous system is ideal for automation processes with an extremely high potential risk.
Full IT Security
The controller functions entirely without software. Consequently, successful cyberattacks are not only unlikely – they are physically impossible.
Wherever there is extremely high potential risk, the Planar4 controller from HIMA ensures maximum safety. It can be used in high-integrity pressure protection systems (HIPPS) for chemical operations and oil refineries.
