Alarm Management Solutions

Alarms are the first line of defense in any safety strategy, enabling process operators to spot abnormal and unsafe conditions and make the corrections necessary to return a plant process to a normal state. However, alarms often go unnoticed or are even ignored if they occur too frequently on a regular basis.

Yokogawa offers a variety of alarm optimization solutions that can eliminate unnecessary alarms and make sure that critical alarms get the attention they deserve, thereby preventing accidents that can endanger plant personnel and lead to production loss.

We offer a three-step approach to alarm rationalization.
