High Integrity Pressure Protection Systems
High-integrity pressure protection systems (HIPPS) prevent over-pressurization of pipelines by shutting off the source of high pressure. In contrast to conventional relief systems, HIPPS solutions contain excess fluids or gasses in the system instead of releasing them. This increases safety, reduces losses, and prevents emissions, ensuring your plant complies with regulations.

Continuous Pressure Monitoring
In light of increasingly strict environmental regulations, it is important to minimize emissions wherever possible. HIPPS continuously monitor pressure levels to ensure critical limits are not exceeded, protecting equipment and pipelines before unsafe conditions develop.
Fast Shutdown Response
When critical thresholds are reached, HIPPS rapidly isolate the pressure source through fast-acting valves, stopping escalation before it impacts downstream equipment. HIMA HIPPS solutions also include interlocking manifolds to achieve positive isolation without compromising safety when performing maintenance or repairs.
