Functional Safety & SIL Studies is a webinar focused on Functional Safety for the process industry, the oil & gas domain and the power sector.
Functional Safety & SIL Studies covers topics such as:
- Hazard Identification process with introduction to the HAZOP technique, Risk Assessment and use of Risk Acceptability criteria
- Introduction to the international standard IEC EN 61508 and derived standards, with particular reference to the specific application standard for the process industry IEC EN 61511
- Verification and demonstration of SIL levels for the design and engineering of E/E/EP (Electric, Electronic, and Programmable Electronic) Safety Instrumented Systems (SISs)
- Definition of SIFs (Safety Instrumented Functions) and focus on SIL Allocation techniques (qualitative, semi-quantitative and quantitative methods), in-depth analysis on Method of Graphs and LOPA (Layer of Protection Analysis), indications of Safety Requirements Specification for SIFs
- Software: overview of the role of software in the design of the safety systems in process industry. Development of criteria consistent with the SIL levels allocated
- Notes on the activities and verifications of the phases of testing, installation, operation, maintenance, modification e decommissioning, necessary for the maintenance of the SIL level required by the SIS object of the study for the entire Safety Life Cycle of a safety related system
- Description and discussion of specific application cases in the process industry
