What is SIL Verification?
SIL verification is the process of assessing safety systems in hazardous industries to confirm we have the appropriate level of safety integrity.
This involves evaluating safety functions, reliability, and performance to determine SIL rating. Verification is essential to ensure systems are designed and implemented correctly, meeting industry standards and regulatory requirements for safe operation.
What are the methods of SIL Verification?
Various methods are used to verify SIL, including:
- Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) Studies
- Safety Integrity Level (SIL) Assessments
- Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)
- Reliability Block Diagrams (RBD)
- Markov Analysis
- Bayesian Networks
- Petri Nets
- Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA)
iPAC Automation’s approach to SIL verification
iPAC Automation follows a systematic and comprehensive approach to Safety Integrity Level (SIL) services, which involves the following steps:
- Understanding client requirements: iPAC Automation first works closely with our clients to understand their specific requirements, including the safety instrumented functions (SIFs) involved, the process hazards, and the desired SIL levels.
- Preparation of checklists: Once the requirements are understood, iPAC Automation prepares input, logic solver, and output checklists to ensure that all necessary information is collected and verified during the SIL verification process.
- SIL verification: iPAC Automation then performs SIL verification using advanced software tools such as exSILentia, which allows for accurate and reliable SIL analysis.
- Review of PHA and C&E reports: iPAC Automation reviews the Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) report and the Cause and Effect (C&E) report to ensure all hazards are identified and accounted for.
- Preparation of SRS test report: Once the SIL verification is complete, iPAC Automation prepares a Safety Requirements Specification (SRS) test report to document the results and demonstrate compliance with industry standards and guidelines.
- QC of all reports: Before submitting the final reports, iPAC Automation performs quality control (QC) to ensure that all information is accurate and complete.
Overall, iPAC Automation’s approach to SIL services is systematic, thorough, and tailored to meet its client’s specific needs and requirements.
