High Integrity Pressure Protection Systems are designed to enhance or replace over pressure protection traditionally addressed with mechanical relief and flare systems.
Unlike a mechanical relief or flare system, a HIPPS system is designed to close the valves and isolate the process at its source when an over-pressurization event is detected. This eliminates the loss of product and fugitive emissions associated with relief systems.
HIPPS has a relatively low-cost compared to the total installed and commissioned cost of a flare system and the associated header piping.
Spartan and Emerson are able to provide full Turnkey Systems for HIPPS including:
- SIL Certified Automation Components
- HIPPS Cabinet Design, Fabrication and Configuration
- HIPPS Configuration
- Valve Assembly & Testing
- SIL Verification Calculations
