Preface

PREFACE
Welcome to PHA-Pro®, the most comprehensive and innovative software tool for
conducting a Process HAzards Analysis. It provides expert guidance for studying
a full range of products to help companies identify potential problems in order to
eliminate them, or at least reduce their likelihood of occurring and minimize their
harmful effects.
PHA-Pro includes numerous features that make it quick and easy to record
information, generate quantitative risk data and create PDF and HTML reports.
This manual shows you how to get the most out of these features. PHA-Pro not
only helps you to conduct a PHA, it also facilitates your study. The predefined
hierarchy immediately gives structure and focus to your PHA. The built-in
libraries aid you in quickly entering data instead of having to recreate it from
scratch, and the libraries can also help your PHA team to brainstorm. In short, this
software stands out from generic products, such as spreadsheets, that were never
specifically designed for an PHA environment. When you open PHA-Pro, you can
immediately begin conducting your Process Hazards Analysis much more
quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively.
This section discusses the following topics:

Risk is a measure of the consequence of a hazard and the frequency with which it is likely to occur. For non-serious risks. 2013 16 . Causes that can result in loss of containment. What is a Hazard? A hazard is an inherent chemical or physical characteristic that has the potential for causing damage to people. it is reviewed from an economic standpoint for cost effectiveness and for implementation.

Although related. ALARP is based on the principle of April 2. Depending on the level of risk. This can only be done once the hazards have been identified. ALARP is balancing risk reduction against the time. Potential consequences of loss of containment. The frequency and consequences of each hazard are determined to determine the risk. If the hazard does not pose a serious risk. and cost of achieving it. you must identify the following: • • • • Potential loss of containment situations. they are not the same. the concept of ALARP is applied. you should understand the difference between hazard and risk.

Potential safeguards that may: • • What is Risk? Prevent loss of containment. The second step is to assess the risks. Your PHA team must evaluate hazards that can potentially impact people. Many people often confuse risk and hazard. Identifying Hazards on page 16 What is Risk? on page 16. Risk can be defined as the product of Consequence and Frequency: RISK = CONSEQUENCE X FREQUENCY Managing Risk The first step in managing risk is to identify the hazards of the process.

In general. 2013 18 . controls or mitigative features are considered inadequate. or if none are in place. the “what if” item. a PHA identifies four key elements: • • • • The source of the hazard – also referred to as the cause. already in existence or is it being modified? Stage of the process – at which point of the operation or design cycle is the PHA being applied? Equipment – is the analysis limited to certain items of equipment? Type of process – is the process batch or continuous? Internal and external regulatory requirements . consider the following: • • • • • • • Extent of the risk – is it high.do these require a specific methodology? Since these considerations can vary greatly from one situation to the next.

Chapter 9: Revalidating Your Data

Using Revalidation Markers
As your team reviews the information in the study, you will want to indicate
which information has been confirmed to be valid, accurate and up-to-date. If you
mark a cell as being revalidated and then later change your mind about the cell’s
revalidated status, you can remove the mark from the cell. Every time you mark or
remove a revalidation mark, the change is tracked in the Progress Summary table.
This section discusses the following topics:

has been modified and then resaved. It consists of a string of 32 numeric and
upper case letter characters but no spaces. It provides a secure “fingerprint” for
your file.
PHA-Pro automatically generates a checksum each time your document is saved.
If you are concerned that the contents of your file may have been altered, you can
perform the following procedure the next time you open it to display its current

Checking Your Data
PHA-Pro’s Data Check helps to identify potential problems with the data in your
files so you can resolve these issues quickly and efficiently. The data checker
informs you of missing information, duplicate entries and invalid dates, and lets
you use formulas to test your data.
Data Check is fully customizable, allowing you to decide which data elements
you want PHA-Pro to examine and which types of issues you want PHA-Pro to
report. You can instruct PHA-Pro to check your recommendations to ensure that
each and every one is referenced somewhere, or you could check that estimated
completion dates fall within an acceptable period of time.
It is advisable to perform a Data Check before you print and distribute your
workplace risk assessment. A quick examination of the results can help you to fill
in missing information and correct data entry errors.
Before you can perform a Data Check, you must set up one or more tests within.
This involves identifying which elements of your study you want to check, as well
as the types of checks you want to perform. When you run the Data Check, it
completes only the tests that you have defined for the current file.

the criteria of a formula. When you select this test, additional options
appear so you can define the formula you want to use to test your
data. Use the Message field to specify text you want the software to
display as part of the results of the test. If you want to be alerted to
data that matches the conditions of the formula, click TRUE on the

Types of Document Protection
There are three types of Document Protection:


Read-Only – allows users to view, but not edit, the data contained in a
protected file.
Password Management – prompts users to enter a password when they try to
open a protected file.
Access Rights – gives users the ability to perform only the tasks for which
they have permission, as defined by their access rights.
Tip: The password feature does not encrypt the data in a file. It is intended to be
used only as a management tool – not to protect sensitive data.
Tip: If a password is forgotten, data loss and project delays may result. You should
make a note of any password along with the name of the corresponding file,
and keep this information in a safe place that is accessible by at least two
authorized team members.
Note: Passwords are case-sensitive. When you write down a password, make sure
to clearly indicate whether letters are upper-case or lower-case.

PHA-Pro offers two advanced exporting features which require some
programming knowledge - batch file export and XML export/import features. In
this appendix you will learn how to create the necessary scripts to carry out the
functions.

Chapter 14: Advanced Exporting Features

Exporting Data Using Batch Files
PHA-Pro allows you to create a batch file to export data from your files. This
requires that you create both a text file that contains the script and a batch file to
run the script. You can export your data in multiple formats at the same time as
well as from multiple studies. You can also use this feature to export and import
XML files as well. For more information, see Exporting/Importing XML Data
Using Batch Files on page 362.
This section discusses the following topics:
Writing a Batchscript File on page 344.
Sample Batchscript File on page 345.
Writing the Batch File on page 345.
Sample Batch File Script on page 346.
Exporting the Data on page 346.
Correcting Errors on page 346.
Writing a Batchscript File

You write your script for the batchscript file and then save the script as a text file.
To write a batchscript file:
Step

Action

1.

Open the program that you use to write your script.

2.

Create the path to the file that you want to extract the data from.
The command for the line is Open path= followed by the file name
including the file path information in quotations. An example would be:

Open path="C:\Program Files\PHA-Pro 7\Sample
Studies\Sample HAZOP.pha"
As you can see in the above example, it has the required parameter
"path". It could also have the optional parameters "username" and
"password" if the document has user access.
Note: You can only have one document open at a time. If you use the
command a second time in the batchscript file, it closes the
previous document first.

Action
Create the export information.
Note: Each set of export information is on its own line.
Each line includes the following parameters:



A

Export path = This command provides the script with the name and
type of the file including the file path.
sheet = This command informs the script which sheet of data is to be
exported.
format = This command informs the script of the format the exported
data takes. Export formats can include word, comma-delimited and
tab-delimited.
headings = This command informs the script if you want to include
the headings for the information.
layout = This optional command is useful when you are exporting
data in a format that can be used in different ways. For example tab
and comma-delimited formats can be used in either databases or
spreadsheets.
sample line of script would be:

Export path="C:\batchtest\process_comma1.txt"
sheet="Nodes" format="comma" headings="true"

Sample Batchscript File

4.

Repeat step 3 for each export command for that file.

5.

Repeat steps 2 to 4 for each file from which you want to export
data.

6.

Once you have completed the batchscript file, save as a text
(*.txt) file.

A sample batchscript is:
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_comma3.txt" sheet="Nodes"
format="comma" headings="true" layout="spreadsheet"
A batch export file could look like the following:
Open path="C:\Program Files\PHA-Pro 7\Sample Studies\Sample HAZOP.pha"
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_comma1.txt" sheet="Nodes"
format="comma" headings="true"
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_comma2.txt" sheet="Nodes"
format="comma" headings="false"
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_comma3.txt" sheet="Nodes"
format="comma" headings="true" layout="spreadsheet"
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_comma4.txt" sheet="Nodes"
format="comma" headings="false" layout="database"
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_tab1.txt" sheet="Nodes" format="tab"
headings="true"
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_tab2.txt" sheet="Nodes" format="tab"
headings="false"
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_tab3.txt" sheet="Nodes" format="tab"
headings="true" layout="spreadsheet"
Export path="C:\batchtest\process_tab4.txt" sheet="Nodes" format="tab"
headings="false" layout="database"
Export path="C:\batchtest\deviations.doc" sheet="Deviations"
format="word"
Open path="C:\Program Files\PHA-Pro 7\Sample Studies\LOPA Sample.pha"
Export path="C:\batchtest\LOPA.doc" sheet="LOPA" format="word"

The above script exports data from two separate files into multiple files with
different formats for the data.
