The webinar addresses the value and importance of measuring the performance of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) because many companies do not seem to understand and/or appreciate the value in conducting these assessments (FSA 4).
The webinar emphasizes the fact that IEC61511 is a performance-based standard and therefore, as such, there is a need to be able to measure SIS performance. This webinar follows on from a previous webinar on the importance of conducting Functional Safety Assessments and the specific requirement from IEC61511 to conduct FSA 4; it focuses on this requirement and the practical benefits that can be gained from performing this assessment.
