What is the Mark VIeS System?
The Mark VIeS is an end-to-end IEC 61508 certified functional safety system for industrial applications that delivers high performance, flexibility, connectivity, and redundancy under extreme conditions to protect property, production, personnel, and communities.
Safety systems don’t just reside in clean rooms. That’s why our Mark VIeS Safety Management System provides high performance in the extreme conditions found in many process environments.
The system can be configured to meet the safety requirements of specific applications by choosing the appropriate level of redundancy choices:
- simplex, dual and TMR controllers
- simplex, dual and TMR I/O network
- simplex, dual and TMR I/O modules
Safety instrumented systems for all scenarios
Enhanced cybersecurity
The Mark VIeS system helps keep operations safe and secure through:
- Dedicated security process and response
- Perimeter defense
- Intrusion detection
- Protection against denial of service (DOS) attacks and buffer overrun
- Limited data access
- Improved passwords
- Achilles Certification—Level 1
- User authentication and access control
- Security logs
- Hardened protocols
Integrate with existing control systems for better, faster decisions
GE Vernova understands the importance of seamless integration between your safety and basic process control solutions. The Mark VIeS offers flexibility, scalability, and common configuration and standards-based operational interfaces to integrate with basic process control systems. This allows world-class safety functionality to connect to existing processes, creating a seamless safety program and reducing the installed and operating costs of your control system.
The Mark VIeS enables real-time visualization by sharing data through plant-wide control systems, HMI, data historians, device management systems, and platform-wide trending tools. Key personnel gain access to critical operational information, allowing them to make better, faster decisions.
Streamlined safety system performance
Sophisticated application automation tools and seamless data integration between the control system and HMI enable process efficiencies during project execution to reduce delivered cost and improve quality. Enhanced software reusability features allow users to create and maintain logic standards that can then be efficiently deployed over and over again. This reduces project costs, increases integrity of software, and reduces risk of human error. All critical considerations when deploying safety related systems.
