Reliability, Safety, and Electrical
Hazop and Hazan

Trevor A. Kletz

Now in its fourth edition, this book provides the basics of applying hazard and operability study (Hazop) and hazard analysis (Hazan). Substantially revised and upated, this classic, easily accessible introduction to the subject provides essential reading for everyone who needs to know about process safety — from undergraduates through to working engineers — providing plenty of practical advice from the author and more examples of Hazop and Hazan applications.

Learning from Accidents

Trevor A. Kletz

By analyzing accidents that have occurred, we are better able to learn from them; therefore, we should be better able to prevent them from happening again. More information is provided on accident investigations including building collapsing, invisible hazards, railway signal passes at dangerous places, a colliery explosion, computer failure, and much more. This edition emphasizes cause and prevention rather than human interest or cleaning up.

Process Plants: A Handbook for Inherently
Safer Designs, 2nd Edition

Trevor A. Kletz

The concept of the “friendly” plants and plant design is the focus of this text. By designing friendlier plants, human error or equipment failure will not have the serious effects on safety, output or efficiency that older, less modern plants would have. In the second edition of this illustrated text, the guide has been enhanced to safe plant design, featuring increased coverage of design procedures.

Safety Equipment Reliability Handbook, 3rd Edition exida.com The Safety Equipment Reliability Handbook, 3rd Edition, is the ultimate reference book for any safety engineer involved in Conceptual Design and Safety Integrity Level verification. It provides detailed reliability data for both specific manufacturer products, as well as generic equipment items. Many companies have standardized their reliability evaluations on reliability data published by exida. Due to the vastly expanded number of equipment items, the third edition is published as a set or in three separate volumes:

• Volume 01 - Sensors

• Volume 02 - Logic Solvers and Interface Modules

• Volume 03 - Final Elements

The Safety Equipment Reliability Handbook provides the ultimate reference source.

Safety Instrumented Systems: Design,
Analysis, and Justification, 2nd Edition

Paul Gruhn and Harry L. Cheddie

This book addresses the increased realization that today’s engineering systems—and the computers used to control them—are capable of large-scale destruction. When even a single accident could be disastrous, the luxury of learning from experience no longer exists. This book is a practical how-to text on the analysis, design, application, and installation of safety instrumented systems (SIS).
