Process heating with fuel-fired burners is the most effective and cost-efficient method of heating. Personnel safety, production equipment protection and maintaining production schedules are all best served by understanding safety requirements. 

When selecting a safety control system for a combustion application, it is essential to recognize that many trade-offs will need to be weighed before making a decision. In simple terms, the reliability will decrease when adding safety to any system.

Safety instrumented systems (SISs) are designed for use in emergency shutdown and fire-and-gas systems in oil refineries, natural-gas processing facilities, petrochemical plants and oil-and-gas production facilities.
