✦ Synopsis

PDS is a method used to quantify the safety unavailability and loss of production for safety instrumented systems (SISs). This report presents an updated version of the PDS method.
Among new and updated topics are:
• Calculations for multiple safety systems.
• Slightly updated model for common cause calculations.
• More thorough discussion of different demand mode situations.
• How to incorporate the effect from reduced proof test coverage (PTC) in the reliability calculations.
• General update of the calculation formulas and examples.

✦ Subjects

Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS); Reliability analysis; SIL calculations; IEC 61508; IEC 61511
