I'm interested in this too, as I see it becoming an issue (read, assigned
to me to make better :) in the near future. Personal philosophy here
(based more on gut feel than anything) is:
Pri 5:
Historian/logging/emailing only
Pri 4:
Not used
Pri 3:
"Run-of-the-mill" alarms
Pri 2:
More critical alarms, including those that interlock or shut down
equipment
Pri 1:
Most critical alarms, shutdowns of major parts of the plant, some signals
relayed from the SIS, things that also go to a SCAM
Each level has its own sound (we use the annunciator keyboard
synthesizers). IOBAD is given the same priority as the highest priority
of the other alarms.
Also, I'm interested in what works best in AM configuration: sorting by
time or priority, filtering, noises, etc.
I guess I'll try to obtain the EEMUA document.

Subject: [foxboro] Recommended practices for assigning Alarm Priorities
Hello Group,
Does anybody have any good ideas or even "successful" recommended =
practices
for assigning Alarm Priorities in I/A, that can be categorized?
As a simple example,
1=3D Emergency Situations
2=3D Alarms that cause Shutdown
3=3D Alarms, such as motor and valve mismatch
4=3D General Messages
5=3D Other
Or is it just better to make a priority assignment on an individual =
alarm
basis?
Any information is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Mark Dumond
