An Integrated Control and Safety System (ICSS) is a technology platform that combines elements of process control and functional safety into a single architecture.
Bringing together safety and process information in a safe manner
Resource sharing allows operational and cost efficiency
Removal of a possible point of failure as a communication gateway is not required between the safety system and control system
Standardised programming across the system
Reduction of required spares due to the use of common hardware
With a focus on the unique needs of each project, our people pay attention to the vital details, as well as understanding and enhancing the bigger picture.
The teams we build around integrated safety and control system projects, are leaders in what they do. Our highly qualified engineers have extensive experience of almost every automated safety and control system used across critical national infrastructure.
They are trusted to advise and guide the realities and ambitions of major projects, and are motivated to over-deliver on expectations.
Combining experience and invention, they work industriously to build integrated systems that will transform how operators manage their assets for the long-term - on time, and on budget.
We can deliver integrated systems that respond to your needs. Our experienced engineers can deliver integrated systems that include elements from multiple or single vendors. Your integration can incorporate existing systems, or implement completely new architecture to combine the functionality of both control and safety systems.
We help to establish trusted automation and data-driven operations - that deliver long-lasting benefits, and help to enhance the future of the world’s leading operators in industry.
An Integrated Control and Safety System (ICSS) is a technology platform that combines elements of process control and functional safety into a single architecture. Our systems may include elements from multiple or single vendors and can incorporate existing systems or implement completely new architecture.
Integrated control and safety systems combine the functionality of both control and safety systems, which iti can also provide separately.
Our safety systems minimise risk by providing accurate and reliable information required to take preventative action, giving sufficient time to shut off systems or evacuate areas prior to an emergency. Our safety solutions include:
Emergency shutdown systems (ESD)
Fire and gas (F&G) detection and control systems
Very early warning aspirating smoke detection system (VESDA)
High integrity pressure protection systems (HIPPS)
Triple modular redundant systems
Rotating equipment safety and control
61508 design compliance
SIL calculation and conformity
Fire and gas mapping and philosophy
SIRA and CASS accredited, our TUV Certified engineers ensure best engineering practice in accordance with IEC 61508.
We utilise a range of systems to control outputs that are essential to the safe and reliable operation of our client’s assets. From our engineering and manufacturing facility, our experienced engineers build a wide range of bespoke control systems including:
Distributed control systems (DCS)
Pipeline integrity monitoring and management systems
Rotating equipment controls
