  1. Safety systems that are not required to meet a safety integrity level standard are referred to as SIL 0. Although individual components of safety systems are not given SILs, these components may be designed by manufactures to be suitable for use at specific safety integrity levels.

    A probability value of 0 (0%) means the outcome is impossible. A probability value of 0.3 (30%) means it will happen an average of three times out of ten. Conveniently, the SIL number matches the minimum number of “nines” in the Required Safety Availability (RSA) value.

    Safety integrity level - Wikipedia

    In functional safety, safety integrity level (SIL) is defined as the relative level of risk-reduction provided by a safety instrumented function (SIF), i.e. the measurement of the performance required of the SIF. In the functional safety standards based on the IEC 61508 standard, four SILs are defined, with SIL4 being the … See more

    Assignment, or allocation of SIL is an exercise in risk analysis where the risk associated with a specific hazard, which is intended to be protected against by a SIF, is calculated without the beneficial risk reduction effect of … See more

    There are several problems inherent in the use of safety integrity levels. These can be summarized as follows:
    • Poor harmonization of definition across the different standards bodies which utilize SIL.
    • Process … See more

  3. What Safety Integrity Level (SIL) Means and How to …

    Jul 27, 2020 · There are four discrete integrity levels associated with SIL: SIL 1, SIL 2, SIL 3, and SIL 4. The higher the SIL level, the higher the associated safety level, and the lower probability that a system will fail to perform properly.
