Group exhibits at process conference

The Instrumentation, Systems and Automation Society (ISA) will be an exhibitor and presenter at the Matrikon Summit 2007.

The Instrumentation, Systems and Automation Society (ISA) will be an exhibitor and presenter at the Matrikon Summit 2007, the technology conference for process industry executives, process control engineers and other professionals.

ISA's presence at Matrikon Summit 2007 will be focused on the upcoming ISA-SP18.02 standard addressing the development, installation, and management of alarm systems in the process industries.

This standard is intended to provide a methodology that will result in the improved safety of industrial and manufacturing facilities.

The ISA-SP18.02 standard is an extension of existing ISA and industry standards, and Matrikon has been intimately involved in its development.

"ISA has a long history with alarm system standards, with work dating back to the 1960s", said ISA-SP18 committee chair Nick Sands of DuPont.

"When we began work on a new standard for alarm system management in 2003, Matrikon was a key contributor".

"Since that time, the Matrikon participants have shared their knowledge and experience, and worked alongside other companies to draft a practical standard that will better structure companies' approaches to alarm management".

Matrikon Summit 2007 is the ideal opportunity for control managers, automation managers and operations managers to get informed on ISA-SP18.02, and to learn more about how to become compliant with this industry-leading alarm management standard.
