HIMA Smart Safety Test leads to time saving and drives
efficiency at BASF’s Zhanjiang Verbund Site Project in China.

28March 2025 – BASF’s largest new construction project in China,
the Zhanjiang Verbund Site Project (ZVSP), requires high
personnel and time expenditures for tests, especially Factory
Acceptance Test (FAT), Integration Factory Acceptance Test (IFAT)
and loop tests. To reduce these efforts, BASF has opted for the
HIMA Smart Safety Test, integral part of SILworX®, HIMA’s
engineering, diagnostics and test tool which enables a flexible,
automated test concept over the entire life cycle of a safety
system.

The FAT and IFAT for the first segments of the plant was carried
out traditionally. After the manual execution, it became clear that a
new way needed to be followed in order to meet the high-ranking
project objectives and to increase efficiency. This, amongst other
aspects is born by the complexity of the start and stop sequences
to be tested.

So, the decision was made to automate future tests with the HIMA
Smart Safety Test.By doing so, fully testing of all static functions as
well as the sequences got automatically tested and the test
evidence got created and documented automatically.
