Technical Challenge:
There is an increasing dependence on Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) to achieve tolerable
risk levels within the method sector. Additionally there's an increasing ought to justify that
SIFs are one amongst the layers of protection that are designed into method plants mitigate
the incidence of major hazard scenarios; this suggests that the failure or absence of a SIF will
increase the likelihood of a unsafe scenario occurring and escalating into a significant
accident. It’s then necessary to estimate the chance of the Sif failing to act on a requirement,
in order for the users to determine if the target risk levels of their organization or country are
being achieved.
Management (PSM) program of any method plant. it is therefore of great importance that the
life cycle of Safety Instrumented Functions (SIFs), together with specification, design,
of the recognized practical safety standard: IEC 61508 [1] or its sector-specific spin off.
When SIL should be done?
SIL study is also one among the safety studies that is carried out to prevent hazard in method
industries. Usually SIL study is carried out once the HAZOP study is completed for a project.
Safety performance criteria for SIS is defined by Safety Integrity Level (SIL) of the known
loop. SIL is AN instrumented safety system that's designed in accordance with the IEC 61508
SIL study is also one among the safety studies that is carried out to prevent hazard in method

HAZOP study ensures safety and reliability at process level and SIL study ensures
As we are able to see from the figure below, SIS is an element of prevention as well as
mitigation of hazard.

S84.01.
Determination of the SIL of a sif may be achieved using completely different qualitative and
quantitative approaches.

qualitative assessment for all safety functions ("screening process") and performing a detailed
quantitative assessment for the higher criticality or less well understood functions.
Layer of Protection Analysis could be a simplified form of quantitative risk assessment. in a
very typical process plant, varied protection layers are in situ to lower the frequency of
unwanted consequences: {the process the method} design (including inherently safer
concepts); the basic process management system; safety instrumented systems; passive
devices (such as dikes and blast walls); active devices (such as relief valves); human
intervention; etc
Typical Worksheet
The consecutive steps used to conduct the SIL
classifications ( LOPA method) are shown as follows:
The SIL classification proceeding will be recorded on SIL classification worksheets
After completion of SIL classification, SIL Verification calculations will be performed using
the exSILentia software Version 2.0 by Exida. This is often a tool to determine the SIL rating
for each SIF by using Exida database for failure rates of system parts. The software
