API2350 - how to apply on your site? Definition In recent years, accidents caused by tank overfilling, have resulted in loss of life and the loss of millions of dollars in damages to facilities worldwide. Although the loss in assets and the costs for compensation are high, companies struggle mainly with damage to image: thus the emphasis on reliability, safety and accident prevention has never been greater than today. An Overfill Prevention System is a facility to detect, indicate and prevent the fluid level in storage tanks rising up to a hazardous overflow. Because of prescription or best practice, safety relevant tasks such as overfill prevention are usually covered by systems operating independently of the process control. Today, Safety Integrity Levels (SIL) are often used to achieve a legally binding level of risk reduction in an easily comprehensible process. Slide 2 07/19/2016 Ngo Consult AG Sales Support

Main benefits Automated proof test guarantees that the safety instrumented system functions perfectly. Proof-testing of 16 tanks takes less than 5 minutes. Completely independent Safety Instrumented System satisfies the highest safety standards (according IEC 61508/IEC 61511) and complies to API 2350 With the Automated Overfill Prevention System the tank capacity can be increased without major mechanical upgrades. The actuators for emergency shut-down (ESD) can be included in the overall safety data calculation. Slide 32

User interface The two inch character message display enables the operator to read latest status information from other side of the room. It shows the latest status message, but with smart prioritization a new warning, for example, will not overwrite an unacknowledged alarm. The operator panel with 10 inch touch display is the main user interface for operation of the system. Slide 37
Control cabinet signalization Horn for warning indication. Orange light for warning indication. Green light for overall status good indication. Siren for alarm indication. Red flashing light for new alarm indication. Red light for acknowledged alarm indication. Slide 38
Power management The system provides a redundant and uninterruptable power supply. The UPS battery provides power for 30 minutes operation of the complete system including sensors. To ensure the lifetime of the UPS battery, the temperature in the cabinet is measured with a Thermophant. The status of the power supplies, the UPS and the temperature are monitored. Slide 39
External field signalization (SIL approved) External alarm: flashing light The flashing light is monitored by an optical sensor External alarm: siren Protect your ears! The siren sounds with 105dB at a distance of 1 meter! The siren is monitored by an acoustic sensor Slide 40
Safety shut-down relay (ESD for AOPS) For each tank, there is a 2-channel relay output for the failsafe shut-off of pumps and valves. In the event of a tank related safety alarm, the related safety relay output opens. The safety relay requires a manual reset command. The status of the safety relay is monitored. Slide 41
Emergency shut-down valves We can recommend appropriate ESD valves. Their safety data can be incorporated into a project specific safety certificate. Pneumatically or hydraulically actuated Ball valve or butterfly valve Slide 42

Time & Efficiency Example: Proof Test Conventional Proof Test Proof Test with dismounting the sensor and testing it outside of the tank or even with rising the tank level is not only time consuming but also a potential source of failures. In average customers spend 4 man hours per tank with conventional proof testing methods. Remote, Automated Proof Test The remote automated proof test is done in 5 minutes for 16 tanks. > This saves more than 60 hours for 16 tanks. Slide 55
Costs & Economy Example: Increased tank capacity Tank capacity and flow rates: Tank capacity: 1 500m3 with 10 m diameter Inlet Flow rate: 90 m3/h Volume per cm height : 0.7854m 3 /cm Filling rate: 1.5 m 3 /min Compare category 2 tank with automated overfill prevention : The maximum working height is 57.3 cm below the critical height for a category 2 tank with a response time of 30 minutes (minimum). With an automated overfill prevention system the response time is less than 1 minute this results in the maximum working height of 1.9cm below the critical height (minimum 3 inch =7.62cm). The tank capacity could be increased by 57.296cm - 7.62cm = 49.676cm => 39 m3 => 2.6% Slide 56
