Recorded Webinars: Electric Final Control Devices
While majority of safety instrumented functions utilize a valve assembly as the final element a fair number use electric final elements. There is less data and experience available for electric final elements making the design and maintenance areas of the lifecycle more challenging. This webinar will review some of the more common electric final elements, the data available for modeling them, and some of the considerations to include when designing them into safety systems.

Blog Entry: Why Run-to-Fail Is Not A Good Maintenance Strategy For SIS
One of the fundamentals of the Probability of Failure on Demand (PFDavg) calculations in SIL verification analysis, is the concept of a constant failure-rate during useful life of the equipment. Probabilistic calculations assume that the failure rate of the devices used in a Safety Instrumented System 〈SIS〉 remains constant during…

Recorded Webinars: Functional Safety Management Planning Part 2: Analysis, Design and Verification Considerations
This is the second in a series of three webinars on Functional Safety Management Planning. Part 2 compares features of some methods for risk assessment, IPL allocation and SIL determination. Contents for the Safety Requirements Specification (SRS) are listed with some frequently overlooked elements highlighted. Requirements for software development and testing are summarized and tips for setting owner expectations are provided. Finally, lifecycle verification requirements are enumerated and an approach to implementation is suggested.

Recorded Webinars: Calculating Unit MTTFS with exSILentia
Calculating the spurious trip rate for a single Safety Instrumented Function is rather trivial. However, in many cases one would like to know the frequency of spurious trips of the entire unit. This can be easily calculated within exSILentia. This webinar will review concepts of spurious failures, spurious trip rate vs. mean time to fail spurious as well as how to use exSILentia to obtain an accurate unit spurious trip rate.

Recorded Webinars: Improve Safety and Reduce False Trips - Configuring the Safety Transmitter Interface
Safety certified transmitters often signal a failure detected by their excellent diagnostics via sending the current output levels to “Out Of Range.” If the safety PLC is correctly configured to interpret these currents, safety can be improved and the false trip rate can be reduced. This webinar will explain how to configure the Safety Transmitter Interface.
