Sellersville, PA: The global leader in functional safety, cybersecurity, and alarm management for the process industries, exida, has certified Profire Energy’s PF3100 Burner Control System for Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 2 capability per IEC 61508: 2010.
The PF3100 Burner Control System is a modular, state-of-the-art solution for oilfield professionals. The entire system is made up of certified modules containing an enclosure and one or more cards, each performing a specific function. The modules can accommodate a vast field of needs and future applications.

The Profire team chose exida as their certification body for their expertise as well as their reputation. “Exida provided an invaluable service to the Profire product development team in regards to training and upgrading existing processes. Interactions with the exida team were meaningful, educational, and productive,” said Profire Energy Design Engineer, Curtis Dublanko.
