HIMA’s safety systems at play

Industrial

HIMA Middle East is one of the few companies in the region providing Functional Safety Management (FSM) solutions that are TÜV certified in compliance with IEC 61511 and has successfully completed several safety automation engineering projects in the region

FSM ensures that the right processes are used throughout a plant’s entire lifecycle. Since operational procedures are validated and certified, new developments as well as applications of safety-related products and systems in plants can be configured more effectively.

A certified Functional Safety Management system proves that a continuous standard-compliant product development or application planning has been performed. The information flow to interfaces of relating phases, for example, system assembly and system application is also considered in detail during the certification process. This assures that the product documentation provides all relevant information necessary for a standard compliant application.

Professional FSM is an extended quality management system and leads to a reduction in systematic failures. Through this, processes become more transparent and plant reliability is significantly increased. HIMA offers coordinated services for all phases of the safety life cycle of the safety instrumented systems (SIS) and deploys specialist safety knowledge to solve onsite problems.

According to the company, their FSM model helps reduce planning and implementation errors, conforms to the latest safety standards, reduces insurance premiums and operational expenditure (OPEX).

HIMA strives to provide safety-critical applications that protect people, assets, facilities and the environment at large. The German-based multinational company, with its subsidiary HIMA Middle East in Dubai, UAE is the choice for EPCs, national oil and gas extraction companies and oil and gas plant manufacturers to develop solutions for safety-critical applications in process automation, rail, logistics and machine safety.

The company’s penchant for safety solutions bodes well with various industry sectors such as modules and complete systems, application engineering, project management and engineering, installation, wiring and testing of complete systems, start-up, training and commissioning support, after-sales service and functional safety consulting.
