RENAISSANCE
IS A REVOLUTIONARY WINDOWS BASED ENGINEERING SOFTWARE
SYSTEM THAT AUTOMATES AND INTEGRATES THE BASIC TASKS OF
AN INSTRUMENT ENGINEER.
Developed and refined over years of application
in industry, it is now available to help you meet OSHA’s
Process Safety Management deadlines. The system is field
proven by end users and is continually being enhanced
to meet the changing demands of our users. In addition
it has undergone and passed an actual OSHA PSM audit after
the occurrence of a major plant incident. Being a multi-user
client/server system, any client terminal can access the
massive repository of engineering and maintenance data
that is only entered once. Access is controlled through
a comprehensive user definable security system that allows
users of the system to have a ‘read-only, ‘read/write,
or ‘print only’ configuration. Independent of
the security system, data integrity is maintained by simultaneously
archiving transactions through a built-in historical data
tracker that will record all activities that modify data
in the relational databases. This creates an un-alterable
audit trail for validation. The basic engineering and
maintenance capabilities are: instrument tag index, specifications,
loop and termination drawings, calibration, estimating,
control system I/O loading, and extensive reporting. Due
to the multitude of data in the system, various groups
such as maintenance and engineering can coincide without
duplicating efforts, or maintaining redundant information.
Maintenance can access their data, and likewise engineering
can do the same. Overlap is eliminated through the use
of the client/server relational databases.
The system provides design tools that can reduce
engineering costs by 40% or more while producing documentation
to simplify compliance with OSHA 1910.119 requirements
and meet ISO-9000 standards. It makes more sense to
engineer with OSHA in mind, rather than fix it after
implementation. With this powerful tool an engineer
can design an instrumentation and control system retrofit,
turnkey project, and maintain existing plant instrument
data. It will automatically produce termination and
loop drawings in (DWG) format without AutoCAD being
required.

OSHA’s new guidelines on PROCESS SAFETY MANAGEMENT
(PSM) documentation and timing compliance are becoming
an increasing burden on plant staff and personnel. In
order to alleviate this burden of hiring additional
staff, THE RENAISSANCE SYSTEM® will provide engineering
documents to meet instrument engineering design and
OSHA’s PSM requirements. The individual engineer
can easily accomplish all tasks currently requiring
support. It is so simple and user friendly that an engineer
can supervise a clerk in organizing all the instrument
data and have it entered into the system to form a living
set of the documents that is current for the scrutiny
of OSHA and ISO. By entering data only once, all the
documents are automatically produced with an unprecedented
degree of data integrity.
The calibration system module provides a method
to meet ISO-9000 standards and OSHA PSM requirements.
The module includes a scheduling system, calculates
"as found" and "as left" errors,
generates calibration sheets, and maintains standard
calibrator information. Loop and tag analysis are performed
to pin point problem instruments within a loop. This
eliminates the need to calibrate devices in a loop that
are not out of calibration, but cannot be determined
through conventional methods. The system is state of
the art Windows technology, which provides exceptional
graphics capability. Links to hand held calibrator data
files can be made for importing and exporting of data.
This is by far the most comprehensive and useful engineering
and maintenance system available. With THE RENAISSANCE
SYSTEM® you now have a solution to the increasing
demand of higher productivity out of fewer personnel.
