The only comprehensive guide to IEC 61508, updated to cover the 2010 amendments, that will ensure engineers are compliant with the latest process safety systems design and operation standards . Helps readers understand the process required to apply safety critical systems standards . Real world approach helps users to interpret the standard, with case studies and best practice design examples throughout. |
