Sequential Workflows
Salus provides a straightforward, sequential workflow that effectively guides the user through each step of the Relief Systems Design process. After performing relief systems analysis, users can access a digital library of up-to-date process safety information.
Evergreen Process Safety Documentation
Processes are constantly changing due to Management of Change (MOC) or capital project implementation. Salus includes a transparent system for revisioning analysis, allowing for the evergreening of process safety documentation. This system ensures the most up-to-date information is readily available for design purposes while simultaneously maintaining historical records of previous installations.
Integrated Thermodynamic Engine
A robust thermodynamic engine is integrated directly into Salus to perform standard calculations in Relief Systems Design. This engine significantly enhances efficiency by providing immediate access to physical properties and automating complex estimations, eliminating the need for manual lookups and hand calculations. If you’ve ever had to look up physical properties or perform manual estimations, you'll appreciate how Salus saves valuable time and ensures consistent, accurate results.
Salus Data Insights
The Salus software package includes access to Salus Data Insights, a web-based querying tool that authorized users can use to rapidly generate tables with relief analysis information. This tool enables users to efficiently search and filter large datasets to locate specific information for generating detailed reports in various formats, such as XLSX, CSV, and PDF, offering flexibility and simplifying data manipulation.
