Hybrid applications of IEC61511 – Laurie Blackmore

Assessment methods:

(1)

True cost benefit analysis - Need to know cost of SIL

-

Cost of SIL1 can vary by a factor of more than 100 !

-

Cost increase of SIL1 to SIL2 could be minimal (not x 10)

-

Cost increase of SIL1 to SIL3 could be only a factor of 2 (not x 100)

-

IEC OOM approach not suitable – use alternative analysis for true cost/benefit
