SIL3 Architectures

SIL3 architectures have at least two processor modules and are suitable for
use with:

SIL3 de-energize to trip applications.

SIL3 energize to action applications which have dual digital/analogue output

modules.

Faulted input modules in a SIL3 arrangement may be replaced without a time
limit; faulted output modules must be replaced within the MTTR assumed in

the PFD calculations.
In all SIL3 architectures, when the processor modules have degraded to
1oo1D on the first detected fault, the system must be restored to at least

1oo2D by replacing the faulty processor module within the MTTR assumed in

the PFD calculations or all SIL3 safety instrumented function and high demand
safety instrumented functions must be shut down.

SIL3 Fail-safe I/O, Fault Tolerant Processor

A SIL3, fail-safe I/O with a fault tolerant processor architecture has a simplex
input and output arrangement with dual or triple processor modules. The dual

processor modules operate in 1oo2D under no fault conditions and degrades

to 1oo1D on detection of the first fault in either module. When there are

faults on both modules the configuration will fail-safe.
