TUV-certified functional safety engineer

2020-11-16View Original

Thread Content

I recently saw training for TUV-certified Functional Safety Engineers (FSCE), which involves taking an exam to obtain the certification. I would like to ask the experts here: what are the prospects for this certificate? It is said to be helpful, whether it’s the increasing emphasis on **policies or an individual’s career planning. Gentlemen, please give some advice.

I’ve received a TUV certification document from Germany; I’m hesitating about whether to take part. Those who are interested can message me privately so we can go together.

Process industries such as chemistry, refining, oil and gas production, pharmaceuticals, power generation, and papermaking may face potential risks during startup, normal operation, shutdown, and other phases, which can lead to injuries to personnel, environmental pollution, and property losses. Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS), built based on the standards IEC61511 and IEC61508, are precisely used to ensure the safety of process industry operations by reducing risks to acceptable levels. In 2014, the **State Administration of Work Safety issued the \"Guiding Opinions of the State Administration of Work Safety on Strengthening the Management of Safety Instrumented Systems in the Chemical Industry\" (Document No. An Jian Zong Guan San [2014] 116). The recommendation states that chemical and hazardous materials production and storage facilities should use Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) to ensure production safety ; The selection, installation, configuration, commissioning, and maintenance of SIS must comply with the requirements of the functional safety standards GB/T20438 and GB/T21109 ; In April 2020, the \"Three-Year Action Plan for Special Rectification of Work Safety Nationwide\" (Safety Commission Order 2020 No. 3) set a target of achieving 100% utilization rates for automated system equipment in production facilities and storage units that fall under the category of \"two key areas and one major hazard\". Recently, the General Office of the **Ministry of Emergency Management urgently issued a notice regarding the \"Work Plan for Special Inspections and Supervisions of Enterprises with Major Hazardous Sources of Hazardous Chemicals.\" The notice specifies the implementation of the main responsibilities for safe production on the part of the enterprises involved, including the proper functioning of alarm systems for flammable and toxic gases in hazardous chemical storage tanks and warehouses, safety instrumented systems (SIS), emergency shutdown systems (ESD), video surveillance systems, alarm systems for liquid level thresholds, overpressure alarm systems for containers, emergency shut-off devices, safety valves and cut-off valves, pressure relief systems, universal piping filling systems, explosion-proof electrical equipment, as well as cooling facilities. It also covers matters such as the storage of hazardous chemicals in accordance with standard zoning and classification rules, as well as the safety management of loading and unloading operations in hazardous chemical storage areas. ) Personnel working on SIS-related tasks should receive systematic and professional training to acquire expertise in functional safety. It is evident that safety instruments and functional safety are of utmost importance in the work of enterprises involved in such notifications! Regarding the TüV-certified Functional Safety Engineer (FSCE) certificate: The TüV-certified Functional Safety Engineer (FSCE) is a qualification that certifies the competence of professionals working in the field of functional safety on a global scale, and it has been widely recognized by various industry owners. Training can help functional safety professionals gain a more systematic understanding of functional safety knowledge and accumulate experience.
