    Orbus Hardwired Safety Systems

    Proven solid state technology

    The Orbus® range is based on well-proven solid state technology that is inherently exceptionally reliable. Typically this equipment is able to achieve very high levels of quantified safety integrity suitable for SIL 4 use. This range enable us to engineer systems that are pulse testable, fail-safe or combined. Additionally we are able to provide diverse systems for extremely onerous applications, as found within the Nuclear Industry.
