Dual systems in the instrumentation industry, risk areas and risk points, seeking assistance
Thread Content
Now, all chemical industries are required to establish dual-system frameworks, involving the identification of risk areas and risk points in each workshop and at each job position； In our company, the risk points within the instrumentation department include thermometers, level gauges, flow meters, pressure transmitters, control valves, gas detectors, DCS operation stations, DCS control stations, and so on ； But I don’t think this is very reasonable; if those measurement points are assigned to the instrumentation department, I won’t have anything else to do – I’d just have to check all of them, and that alone would take up the whole day ； I think these should be divided by workshop; for example, the phthalic anhydride workshop can be split into: oxidation area, hot-melting area, refining area, slicing area, fan room, and so on ； The corresponding instruments are located in the respective areas, and should not be considered separately as risk factors for the instrumentation department ； The instrument workshop is similar in nature to the process technology department and the maintenance workshop; all I need to do is keep daily work records, maintenance records, and inventory logs for the instruments. It’s no longer possible to do this work; if all of these are considered risk points for the instruments, how can we proceed? I would be extremely grateful if the experts could provide some guidance.

If you don’t know what to do, then don’t do it outside. . . . It’s too hot; let’s take a break from the strike. :P
