I am working on the design for a Compact GuardLogix system. All of the inputs are simple pushbuttons that will activate a simple safety sequence. This is a SIL 1 system.
Does anyone have an example for SIL verification calculation? More specifically, I need assistance in coming up with a failure probability (PFD) for the pushbuttons. The IEC standards basically admit that a lot of field devices don't publish these numbers.
