The required SIL is determined using a systematic approach involving accident risk assessment and evaluation of the effectiveness of relevant safeguards, in accordance with international regulations and standards (ANSI/ISA-84.01-1996, IEC 61508 y IEC 61511). This requires the application of a number of selection methodologies, such as qualitative methodologies (Risk Graphs), semi-quantitative methodologies (Calibration Graphs and Risk Matrixes) and quantitative methodologies (LOPA analysis). The results must be recorded in the System Requirement Specifications (SRS) for the system.
This training and our awareness-raising materials are aimed at all professionals who are required to take part in a personal competencies DEVELOPMENT PLAN covering skills and knowledge in addition to an understanding of methodology which will enable him/her to deal efficiently with any decisions necessary in the area of Industrial Risk Management.
