Production platforms and processing plants use instrumentation for safety systems. Alarm systems alert operators to abnormal process conditions. Shutdown systems stop equipment automatically if process conditions become unsafe. Alarm systems are designed to interact with shutdown systems. Various devices are used to protect equipment from damage due to power failures, extreme process conditions, or fire.

The Safety Alarm Systems and Instrumentation training course describes the design, operation, and use of safety alarm systems and instrumentation. This online course explains:

• Alarm systems
• Shutdown systems
• Equipment protection devices

Safety Alarm Systems and Instrumentation is part of the Process Safety Systems training series.
