SIL Selection and SIL Verification with exSILentia®
Attendees will learn how to perform Safety Integrity Level (SIL) Selection and Verification using the advanced capabilities of exSILentia. This will help users determine the required risk reduction for each hazard scenario and the achieved risk reduction for each identified Safety Instrumented Function (SIF). The class will also cover interfacing with Process Hazard Analysis results, documentation of the Safety Requirements Specification (SRS), and operational aspects such as proof testing.
