The Event: What Happened<\/h2>\n
\n

Alarm Trigger<\/h3>\n

During full-load operation at a chemical production facility, the DCS system suddenly triggered a “Feedback Signal Abnormal Fluctuation”<\/strong> alarm on a \u0e1f\u0e34\u0e0a\u0e40\u0e0a\u0e2d\u0e23\u0e4c \u0e14\u0e35\u0e27\u0e35\u0e0b\u0e356200<\/a> valve positioner. Field operators simultaneously reported severe valve vibration with audible abnormal noise at the valve-pipe connection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Symptom 1: Signal Instability<\/h4>\n

Valve position feedback fluctuated violently between 0% and 100%, causing the positioner to diagnose actuator failure and trigger interlock protection logic.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Symptom 2: Auto-Shutdown<\/h4>\n

Approximately 3 minutes post-alarm, the valve automatically closed completely, interrupting process medium supply to that branch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Pre-Incident Context:<\/strong> The unit had been operating at full capacity, with medium flow velocity in this branch maintained near the design upper limit for extended periods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Risk Assessment: What Was at Stake<\/h2>\n

Prolonged severe vibration created multiple escalating risks:<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Equipment Damage<\/h4>\n

Feedback linkage loosening, internal sensor element damage, valve flange sealing surface wear, pipe weld stress concentration<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Safety Hazard<\/h4>\n

Potential medium leakage if left unaddressed, escalating to more serious safety incidents<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Production Loss<\/h4>\n

Process interruption, potential cascade effects on downstream units<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
