Alarm management refers to the processes and practices for determining, documenting, designing, monitoring, and maintaining alarm systems in process automation and safety systems.
Alarm management is a process that involves managing alarms through the alarm management life cycle, which consists of the following stages:
Alarm management is an important aspect of ensuring the safety, reliability, and efficiency of industrial processes. It helps to reduce the operator workload, improve the situational awareness, and prevent or mitigate the consequences of abnormal situations.
Alarm management is often ignored during the design phase and the operational phase of the plant life and yet poorly managed alarm systems always appear as contributory factors in the failure of plant sometimes with great financial loss and risk to the operator.
