Abstract :
This paper sets out a methodology for setting tolerable risk levels, for various methods of Safety Integrity Level (SIL) determination, to meet the principles as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP). It makes proposals on how to deal with the tolerable risk concept for safety instrumented systems (SIS) protecting against single hazards.
