A Moore Industries International product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Mar 7, 2005

Moore Industries-International has earned the San Fernando Valley Engineers' Council Distinguished Engineering Project Achievement Award.

Moore Industries-International has earned the San Fernando Valley Engineers' Council Distinguished Engineering Project Achievement Award for exceptional commitment to safety and successful completion of IEC61508 certification.

The Distinguished Engineering Project Achievement Award recognises organisations that have completed engineering projects which, because of their scope or unique character, are outstanding and deserving of merit.

Joseph Hage, Vice President of Engineering and Moore Industries' IEC61508 Safety Team leader accepted this award on behalf of the team at the Engineers' Council 50th Anniversary National Engineers Week Honours and Awards Banquet.

IEC61508 is a process based standard that applies to the entire life cycle of a product, from conception and design stages, through its manufacturing, application, maintenance, and ultimately final decommissioning.

Moore Industries is the first US company to successfully obtain IEC61508 certification to design and manufacture process instrumentation hardware for safety related applications and has used this achievement as a driving force to educate industry leaders, government bodies, manufacturers, end users, system integrators and other entities on the importance of safety.

In addition, Moore Industries is a founding member of an IEC61508 consortium in Europe.
