Duenger U., 2016, The Use of Pressure Relief Systems as Single-Channel, Highly Reliable Safety Devices, Chemical Engineering Transactions, 48, 565-570.
An evaluation of the impact of random and systematic errors on a pressure relief system was carried out according to DIN EN 61508-2. It is shown how systematic errors can be prevented by means of a management system that covers the entire life cycle of a pressure relief system. Avoiding systematic errors by using this method leads to pressure relief systems which can be classified as highly reliable.
