SIL Awareness for Technicians
Are your control / electrical engineering teams aware of the requirements of IEC 61508 / 61511 compliance for the trips and alarms installed within your asset?
With the advent of the IEC 61508 / 61511 standards there are best practice requirements for the specification, installation, inspection, maintenance and repair of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) installed within the workplace. TÜV Rheinland will help you to achieve and maintain compliance for your assets. Providing a practical perspective based on real life experience comes naturally.
