Functional safety refers to the general safety of a plant and equipment using safety-related systems, such as alarm systems, safety instrumented systems (SIS), and basic process control systems (BPCS). It covers fault detection, physical or systemic redundancy, and transitioning to a safe state that reduces the overall risk caused by faults in the electronic system. As a result, it finds extensive applications in the pharmaceutical, automotive, oil and gas, and food and beverage (F&B) industries worldwide. Functional Safety Market Trends:
The increasing requirement of safety systems for personnel and asset protection on account of stringent government regulations represents one of the key factors impelling the growth of the market. Besides this, the introduction of the industrial internet of things (IIoT), also known as Industry 4.0, is offering new opportunities for integrated safety and compliance services. It enables industries and enterprises to have better efficiency and reliability in their operations. Moreover, a key concept in Industry 4.0 is cyber-physical systems (CPS), which consists of storage systems, smart machines, and production facilities capable of autonomously exchanging information, triggering actions, and controlling each other independently. This, coupled with the increasing focus of market players on product innovations to offer better services, is driving the overall sales and profitability. Furthermore, there is an increase in the utilization of safety sensor switches in machines and other industrial applications to inhibit accidental contact with live electrical connections. Factors like the rising automation in different industry verticals and the rising number of power projects to meet the escalating demand for energy across the globe are anticipated to offer lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors and strengthen the growth of the market.
