How much do your design and engineering practices contribute to minimizing common cause failures in Safety Instrumented Functions (SIFs)?
Common Cause Failure (CCF), often represented by the Beta factor in functional safety calculations, plays a significant role in determining the Probability of Failure on Demand (PFD) of redundant systems. Yet, reducing its impact goes beyond calculations. It also requires looking at how systems are designed, engineered, and maintained.
Join Pieter Poldervaart for the final session of his five-part SIS Mastery Series. We will explore what common-cause failure is, how it affects safety and availability, and why it can significantly influence the PFD of redundant systems. We will also look at how engineering practices can help minimize its impact and improve SIF reliability.
为什么要参加?
Understanding common-cause failure is essential for making informed decisions about SIF design and reliability. This session will help you look beyond the Beta factor in your calculations and recognize how design choices and engineering practices influence the performance of redundant systems. Gain practical insights to better understand, assess, and minimize common-cause failure in your functional safety work.
