SIL from Scratch: Getting to Grips with Functional Safety provides an understanding of functional safety as applied in the chemical process industry. The book explains the purpose of the relevant international standard IEC 61511 and how to achieve compliance. Its focus is on how functional safety is implemented in practice, with a particular emphasis on SIL assessment, the Functional Safety Management Plan, the Safety Requirements Specification, verification, validation, and Functional Safety Assessment. The book provides in-depth coverage of the entire lifecycle of a functional safety system, assuming no prior knowledge of functional safety and only a basic understanding of process safety concepts. This will be a highly practical source for process and instrumentation engineers, process chemists, and consultants, especially those preparing for functional safety qualifying examinations.
