Drager Fixed Gas Detector - Functional Safety & Gas Detection Systems - SIL B...Thorne & Derrick UK
A process is assumed to be safe if the actual risk is decreased below the level of acceptable risk through risk-reducing measures. Safety instrumented systems use functional safety to automatically activate safety measures and avoid dangerous situations. The required reliability of protection systems depends on the safety integrity level (SIL), which is determined through risk analysis of potential consequences, exposure to hazards, and avoiding hazardous events. Gas detection systems must activate safety countermeasures if gas concentrations exceed defined levels. Their safety function is to trigger gas alarms, and upon failure must go to a safe state of equivalent alarm activation. The probability of failure for safety functions is evaluated to ensure protection systems meet the necessary SIL level through factors like proof testing and detectable versus undetectable

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

7.3.2 The purpose of this study is to identify the hazard, access the risks associated with these
identified hazards and suggest risk reducing measures.
7.3.3 The first step of the HIRAC is to identify the activity of a department for which you want to
access the risk involved.
7.3.4 After selecting the particular work activity list down the sub activities looks to each sub activity
from all perspective to find out both major and minor hazards associated with that activity of
work.
7.3.5 The next step after determining the hazard is to note down all the existing control measures
which are being followed currently. The control measures is of THREE types.
Engineering Control (ex. Access, Excess)
Administration Control (ex. Permit to work, supervision)
Personal Protective Equipment (ex. Full body harness)
7.3.6 Evaluation of Risk: For evaluation of hazard the following criteria can be used.
7.3.6.1 Likelihood: In the below table we have to choose the chances of the occurrence of the
hazards
Assessments can be done either Quantitative or Qualitative:
Quantitative Assessment:
Frequency
of Failure
(F)
Probability (Frequency)
1 Improbable: Less than once in 10years or more
2 Remote: Unlikely to occur during life cycle of the system (once in 6-10 years)
3 Rare: At least once in life cycle system (typically) once in SIX years
4 Reasonably Probable: Several times during life cycle of the system or at least
once in THREE years
5 Frequent: Repeatedly during life cycle of the system or at least once in a year.

7.3.6.3 RISK MATRIX
Once each hazard is ranked in terms of likelihood and consequences, it can be plotted on a risk
matrix and associated risk level can be determined.
Consequence levels are determined with reference to loss of people, asset damage, Environment
and reputation.
The risk level defines three areas:
Low: Either the evaluated risk is negligible or the corresponding system / item are acceptable as
they are.
Medium: Risk falls in ALARP region and risk control options are then to be proposed and assed
in accordance with safety objectives.
High: Risk is found unacceptable and corresponding source of risk is to be removed.

Quatitative assessment.
The principle is the same as for Qualitative assessments, but numerical scores rather than a grade
are assigned to probability and consequences.
The probability or likelihood of the event is rated on a scale of 1 to 5 as follows:
Level 1 Very unlikely to happen
Level 2 Unlikely to happen, but not by any means impossible
Level 3 likely to happen, and would not be totally unexpected.
Level 4 It is very likely to happen, and would not be at all unusual
Level 5 It is certain to happen.
The consequences or the severity of the event, should it happen, are also then rated on a scale
of 1to 5 as follows:
Level 1 No injury. It would be a 'near miss'. Minor property damage.

Level 2
Minor injury. Less than three days' work time lost. Property damage more
than just minor likely to happen, and would not be totally unexpected.
Level 3
Reportable injury to the HSE with over three days' time lost, but not a
major injury. Substantial property damage or something causing
environmental damage
Level 4 Major injury, long term absence. Major damage, serious environmental
impact.
Level 5
Fatal accident or multiple major injuries. Public or others could be involved
as well.
All possible resulting numbers are calculated by multiplying all the probability figures by all the
consequence figures. These are included in the matrix, as shown below. This means that once a risk
assessment has been made on a particular activity, and the probability factor is multiplied by the
consequence factor, the number produced indicates where the assessment places the risk associated
with the activity on the matrix.
Clearly, the higher the resulting number, the less acceptable the level of risk. The matrix shows
where actions need to be taken to reduce either the probability or the consequences in order to
reduce the risks to an acceptable level.

Consequences
Risks with a rating above 1 6 are unacceptable and the work will not be undertaken until the risk
has been reduced.

RECORD YOUR FINDINGS AND IMPLEMENT THEM
Putting the results of your risk assessment into practice will make a difference when looking after
people and your business.
Writing down the results of your risk assessment, and sharing them with your staff, encourages
you to do this. If you have fewer than five employees you do not have to write anything down,
though it is useful so that you can review it at a later date if, for example, something changes.
When writing down your results, keep it simple, for example, 'Tripping over rubbish: bins provided,
staff instructed, weekly housekeeping checks', or 'Fume from welding: local exhaust ventilation used
and regularly checked'.
We do not expect a risk assessment to be perfect, but it must be suitable and sufficient. You need
to be able to show that:
a proper check was made;
you asked who might be affected;
you dealt with all the significant hazards, taking into account the number of people
who could be involved;
the precautions are reasonable, and the remaining risk is low; and.
You involved your staff or their representatives in the process.
A good plan of action often includes a mixture of different things such as;
a few cheap or easy improvements that can be done quickly, perhaps as a temporary
solution until more reliable controls are in place;
long-term solutions to those risks most likely to cause accidents or ill health;
long-term solutions to those risks with the worst potential consequences;
arrangements for training employees on the main risks that remain and how they are to be
controlled;
regular checks to make sure that the control measures stay in place; and
Clear responsibilities - who will lead on what action, and by when
Remember, prioritize and tackle the most important things first. As you complete each action,
13. Document Reference OHSP- RA – UL- 001 Rev00.
Revision 00

tick it off your plan.
Review your risk assessment and update if necessary
Few workplaces stay the same. Sooner or later, you will bring in new equipment, substances and
procedures that could lead to new hazards. It makes sense, therefore, to review what you are doing
on an ongoing basis. Every year or so formally review where you are, to make sure you are still
improving, or at least not sliding back.
Look at your risk assessment again. Have there been any changes? Are there improvements you
still need to make? Have your workers spotted a problem? Have you learnt anything from accidents
or near misses? Make sure your risk assessment stays up to date.
During the year, if there is a significant change, don't wait. Check your risk assessment and,
where necessary, amend it. If possible, it is best to think about the risk assessment when you're
planning your change - that way you leave yourself more flexibility.
