The reliable identification of low combustion oxygen in a red heater or boiler has always been critical to the effectiveness of the Burner Management System for proper control and safety.
Low emission burners and aggressive ring control points to achieve increased efficiency and emission reductions have driven the industry to tighter control measures. But tighter control measures also hold a greater potential for combustion damage. Reducing the risk of a combustion event has become a priority and has led to the implementation of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS). This additional layer of safety is added to the Basic Process Control System.
We are engaged in manufacturing and supplying a superior quality range of Thermocouples, RTD, Compensating Cable and Thermowell. These are praised for their quality, durable finish standards, reliable performance and user friendly interface.
Sensor Cartridge SC2 for combustible gases
Exchangeable sensor including digital value processing, temperature compensation and self control for the continuous monitoring of the ambient air.
The sensor cartridge SC2 includes a Pellistor sensor element and an amplifier as well as a μController for measured values processing. All important data and measured values of the sensor element are stored fail-safe in the μController and transmitted digitally via the local bus to the sensor board SB2 or MSB2. The calibration management is also integrated in the μController of the sensor cartridge.
Calibration is done either by simply replacing the sensor cartridge or by using the comfortable, integrated calibration routine directly at the system.
APPLICATION
The PolyGard®2 Sensor Cartridge is used for the detection of combustible gases in non-Ex zones.
FEATURES
Digital measurement value processing incl. temperature compensation
Internal functional control with integrated Hardware Watchdog
Data / measured values in μC Sensor Cartridge, therefore simple exchange of SC uncalibrated <> calibrated
High accuracy, selectivity and reliability
Low zero point drift
Sensor with long life expectancy
Hardware & software according to SIL2 compliant development process
Modular technology (plug-in and replaceable)
Easy maintenance and calibration by exchange of the sensor cartridge or by comfortable on-site calibration

How to Select an Intrinsically Safe Pressure TransducerSetra Systems
Engineers selecting pressure transducers in hazardous industries must make one more significant consideration beyond performance, reliability, and stability-they must specify units with intrinsically safe circuits. The National Electrical Code defines an intrinsically safe circuit as, "A circuit in which any spark or thermal effect is incapable of causing ignition of a mixture of flammable or combustible material in air under prescribed conditions." In addition, intrinsically safe products are incapable of storing large amounts of energy that might spark an explosion when discharged. These circuits must be used wherever there are combustible gases, vapors, liquids, dust, and/or fibers.
This paper discusses what industries and applications require intrinsically safe systems and the technical considerations for specifying an intrinsically safe pressure transducer.

Isolation Procedures for Safe Working on Electrical Systems and Equipment by the JIB | solation Procedures for Safe Working on Electrical Systems and Equipment
This chart shows the safe isolation procedure that you should use when working on electrical systems and equipment.
You'll receive a printed copy of this from your Training Provider, but it's also here as a handy reference to keep electronically.
THE RULES OF SAFE ISOLATION ARE:
Obtain permission to start work (a Permit may be required in some situations)
Identify the source(s) of supply using an approved voltage indicator or test lamp
Prove that the approved voltage indicator or test lamp is functioning correctly
Isolate the supply(s)
Secure the isolation
Prove the system/equipment is DEAD using an approved voltage indicator or test lamp
Prove that the approved voltage indicator or test lamp is functioning correctly
Put up warning signs to tell other people that the electrical installation has been isolated
Once the system/equipment is proved DEAD, work can begin

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
