Cetix Limited are dedicated to delivering functional safety solutions that safeguard people, processes, and the environment.

Our expertise ensures compliance with BS EN 61508 and BS EN 61511 standards, helping industries mitigate risks and achieve operational excellence in protection systems for your process

Our Functional Safety Services

We provide comprehensive solutions for ensuring the highest safety standards in industrial automation and control systems. Our key services include:

We design and deploy safety instrumented systems (SIS) that meet the requirements of IEC 61508 and IEC 61511, ensuring compliance and reliability.

The Cetix Management System has been independently audited for delivery of up to SIL 3 systems through the CASS scheme.

The CASS Scheme | Conformity Assessment of Safety-related Systems.

Our end-to-end approach ensures that safety is integrated throughout the system lifecycle, from risk assessment to decommissioning.

We conduct thorough hazard and risk assessments to identify potential process risks and determine the necessary safety integrity levels (SIL).

We perform SIL assessments, verification, and validation to confirm system compliance with international safety standards.

Our team provides independent safety audits and assessments to ensure adherence to regulatory requirements and industry best practices.

We integrate robust cybersecurity measures to protect safety-critical systems from evolving cyber threats.

What is Functional Safety?

Functional safety is a critical aspect of equipment design, particularly when programmable logic is involved. It ensures that a system or component performs its intended safety functions under all specified conditions, thereby mitigating risks associated with failures. These safety functions are essential not only for protecting lives but also for maintaining a business’s reputation and operational integrity.

While the primary objective of functional safety is to eliminate unacceptable risks of physical injury or harm to people, its scope extends beyond human safety. Functional safety also plays a crucial role in:

Environmental Protection – Preventing hazardous material leaks or emissions that could harm ecosystems.

Property Damage Prevention – Reducing the risk of industrial accidents that could lead to significant asset losses.

Financial Risk Mitigation – Minimising downtime and operational disruptions caused by safety-related failures.

By ensuring that safety functions operate correctly and reliably, functional safety provides a structured approach to managing potential hazards across various industrial applications.

Our Process Control Expertise

We offer end-to-end process control solutions, covering the entire lifecycle from design and implementation to maintenance and support. Our key services include:

Control Systems and Safety

Control systems play a pivotal role in ensuring the safety of industrial processes. These systems are used to monitor and control processes, and they can be designed to prevent or mitigate the consequences of hazardous events. Control systems can be classified into different types, including basic process control systems (BPCS), safety instrumented systems (SIS), and alarm systems.

Each type of control system has its own specific safety requirements and must be designed and implemented in accordance with relevant safety standards. By integrating robust control systems, organisations can enhance the safety and efficiency of their operations, ensuring compliance with industry best practices.

Achieving Functional Safety

Achieving functional safety requires a systematic approach that involves several critical steps, including risk assessment, safety requirements specification, design, implementation, testing, and validation.

The safety lifecycle is a fundamental concept in functional safety, encompassing the identification of hazards, the assessment of risks, and the implementation of safety measures to mitigate those risks.

The safety lifecycle is typically divided into several phases, including planning, design, implementation, testing, and operation. By following a structured safety lifecycle, organisations can ensure that their safety-related systems are designed, implemented, and maintained to the highest standards of safety and reliability.
