Analysis of hazard risk leads to the identification of risk mitigation and safety requirements. This process identifies critical functions (called safety functions or safety related control functions) which must perform with a level of dependability or integrity. This level is known as a Safety Integrity Level (SIL), a Performance Level (PL) or a Category Level (CAT).
A number of international and national functional safety standards exist that define the requirements for allocating and analysing safety levels. AMOG has extensive experience in the application and independent verification and validation of systems against standards such as:
- IEC/AS61508
- IEC/AS61511
- IEC/AS62061
- ISO13849
- AS4024
