Kiwa Inspecta offers assessment work for safely-related automation. Our services ensure that the systems meet and achieve the safety requirements needed and your automation’s quality demands are met. We also check that programmable security systems are implemented independently. Our service covers the life cycle of safety-related automation implementation up to the commission phase.
Assessment is based on international and national safety-related automation standards, such as IEC 61508. The main target of our assessment is to find possible systematic faults in the implementation processes of safety-related automation. Steps of evaluation are split into four different areas: safety requirements specification; design and engineering; installation, commissioning and validation; operation and maintenance. With these inspections all parts and perspectives of the safety-related automation will be assessed.
