Introduction
The SVI II ESD (Emergency Shutdown Device) is our solution to improve process integrity in a pro-
cessing plant; designed to prevent and mitigate possibly uncontrollable situations.
The SVI II ESD is a PST controller that mounts on a pneumatically actuated valve assembly. Its
role is to position an emergency shutdown valve to 0% or 100% with a probability of failure on
demand (PFD) in accordance with IEC61508 for SIL3 application (SIL = Safety Integrity Level). It
replaces the solenoid that is typically utilized to actuate a spring-return, while providing exten-
sive online valve diagnostics.
