In 2016, the ANSI/ISA-18.2-2016 (ISA-18.2) alarm management standard was released. This technical report, Alarm Management When Utilizing Packaged Systems, provides guidance on the application of the ISA-18.2 standard to facilities that use packaged systems. This includes guidance for designing, configuring, interfacing and implementing alarms with respect to packaged systems and integrating them into a facilityÆs BPCS (basic process control system). Other topics addressed include how to apply the various ISA-18.2 life cycle stages to packaged systems, common interfacing issues, and the many benefits of using a standardized alarm management approach for integrating packaged systems with a BPCS.
