1 Functional Safety Demystified BOB WEISS - FUNCTIONAL SAFETY CONSULTANT IICA TECHNICAL EVENING 9 TH JULY 07 Purpose Explains how to comply with AS IEC using a case study TOPICS What is Functional Safety? SIS, SIF and SIL Standards IEC 6508 and IEC 65 An example to demonstrate compliance 4.5 day TÜV FSEng course in 45 minutes! One day course also available

2 What is Functional Safety? New term in IEC 6508 (introduced in 999) Part of Overall Safety freedom from unacceptable risk Achieved by a Safety Instrumented System (SIS) E/E/PE Safety System in IEC 6508 Examples: Trip System Emergency Shutdown System Burner Management System Includes field devices as well as logic solver A SIS places or maintains a process in a safe state Process = Equipment Under Control (EUC) in IEC 6508 Implements Safety Instrumented Functions (SIFs) Each SIF achieves a Safety Integrity Level (SIL) Acronyms to remember: SIS, SIF and SIL!. 3 IEC 6508 or IEC 65 IEC 6508 SIS device manufacturers SIS integrators & users SIL -3 SIS integrators & users SIL 4 IEC 65 SIS integrators & users SIL -3 for process industries Integrators & users in the process industries can use either IEC 6508 or IEC 65 IEC 65 is generally simpler to apply 4

3 Why Functional Safety? Buncefield, England Dec 005 Storage tank level gauge showed constant reading High level switch left in test mode Gasoline tank overflowed Mist exploded largest peacetime explosion in Europe 0 tanks on fire burned for three days significant environmental impact hundreds of millions of pounds damage Should have complied with IEC Basic Terminology Sensing subsystem Logic subsystem Final element subsystem Temperature transmitter Temperature transmitter Pressure transmitter SIF : TZH34 SIL Logic Solver (e.g. Safety PLC) Solenoid SIF : PZHH34 Relay in MCC Shut-off valve SIL Flow transmitter Component Subsystems Solenoid Safety Instrumented System - SIS Safety Instrumented Function - SIF Safety Integrity Level - SIL Globe valve July, 07 IICA - FUNCTIONAL SAFETY DEMYSTIFIED 6 3

5 Complying with IEC 65 Target SIL must be specified for each SIF based on hazard and risk analysis Processes for SIS throughout lifecycle must comply Each SIF must meet target SIL requirements for: Random failure rate (PFD avg ) Architectural constraints (hardware fault tolerance) Systematic capability for each component Field devices, logic solver, shutdown valves etc. Not just TÜV certification Though it helps! Not just meeting PFD avg target. 9 Comply Throughout Lifecycle For the rest of the presentation we ll follow the SIS lifecycle What do we need to do to comply at each stage? See the following example Only the main elements of compliance are covered. 0 5

How likely is it that each component is free from systematic faults ( bugs )? 48 4

25 Control of systematic failures For integration of components into a system (SIS): functional safety management system for all phases of lifecycle including operation verification, validation, audit and assessment can comply with either IEC 65 or IEC 6508 Within each component: ensure quality design in accordance with IEC 6508 ensure appropriate techniques and measures from IEC 6508 used for the SIL of the target SIF measured by the term systematic capability SC to 4 corresponding to SIL to 4 formerly called SIL Capability independent certification or prior use 49 Case Study: Transmitter Selection Must control systematic faults Transmitter selected must comply with IEC 6508 and IEC 65 Must either: be designed and manufactured in accordance with IEC 6508 confirmed by independent certificate (e.g. by a TÜV or exida) Systematic Capability from to 4 OR i.e. techniques and measures are suitable for SIL to 4 meet requirements for Prior Use (or proven in use ): sufficient experience gained in a comparable application Best practice: require BOTH prior use and certification 50 5

26 Component Certification An independent organisation certifies that the component meets the requirements of IEC 6508 for a particular SIL not only TÜV!!! Parts and 3 contain numerous techniques and measures required to avoid and control faults the rigour required increases with SIL The aim is to reduce the likelihood of systematic faults to an acceptably low level relative to the SIL The result is expressed as Systematic Capability or SC from to 4 corresponding to SIL to 4 was previously called SIL Capability The certificate also usually also includes failure data and whether the component is Type A or Type B details are in a companion report 5 Transmitter TÜV Certificate 5 6

27 Transmitter TÜV Certification 53 Prior Use (IEC 65) Requires that appropriate evidence is available that the component is suitable based on consideration of: the manufacturer s quality systems adequate identification of the devices demonstration of performance in similar operating environments the volume of operating experience Focus is on demonstrating freedom from systematic faults IEC 6508 term is Proven in Use more rigorous requirements 54 7

30 Verification... build the product right activity of demonstrating for EACH PHASE of the relevant safety life cycle by analysis and/or tests, that, for specific inputs, the outputs meet in all respects the objectives and requirements set for the specific phase (IEC ) Performed progressively throughout the lifecycle 59 Validation... build the right product activity of demonstrating that the safety instrumented function(s) and safety instrumented system(s) under consideration after installation meets in all respects the SAFETY REQUIREMENTS SPECIFICATION (IEC ) Performed prior to introducing the hazards to the process Can take credit for software validation in Factory Acceptance Test CDV 60 30

31 Functional Safety Audit A systematic and independent examination to determine whether the PROCEDURES specific to the functional safety requirements to comply with the planned arrangements, are implemented effectively and are suitable to achieve the specified objectives. (IEC Ed and IEC ) For either an organisation or a project 6 Functional Safety Assessment investigation, based on evidence, to JUDGE the functional safety achieved by one or more protection layers (IEC ) Judgement based on evidence At least one required prior to hazard introduction, but may be progressive Independence required Increases with SIL (IEC 6508) 6 3
