CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

Section 9:
Safety Requirements Specification
• Input Documents
• Requirements
• Logic Description
– Plain Text
– Logic Diagrams
– Cause-and-Effect Diagrams

1
CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

SRS Input Requirements

• The safety requirements specification step


occurs after SIL selection in the safety
lifecycle.
• The following inputs should be considered
– A list of required safety functions
– Process information for hazards (PHA report)
– Common cause failure considerations
– Regulatory requirements effecting SIS design

2
CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

SRS Input Documents

• Basic Process Design Documentation


– PFD, P&ID
– Heat and Weight Balances
– Process Description
• Process Hazards Analysis Report
• SIF List
• SIL Selection Report

3
CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

SRS Requirements

• The SRS should contain two types of requirements


– Functional Requirements
– Integrity Requirements
• The SRS should contain these functional
requirements
– Definition of the safe state
– Process Inputs and their trip points
– Process parameter normal operating range
– Process outputs and their actions
– Relationship between inputs and outputs

4
CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

SRS Requirements (Cont’d)

– Selection of energize-to-trip or deenergize-to-trip


– Consideration for manual shutdown
– Actions on loss of power to the SIS
– Response time requirements for the SIS to bring
the process to a safe state
– Response actions for overt fault
– Operator Interface requirements
– Reset functions
– Selection of energize-to-trip or deenergize-to-trip
– Consideration for manual shutdown/bypass
5
CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

SRS Requirements

• The SRS should contain these integrity


requirements
– The required SIL for each SIF
– Requirements for diagnostics to achieve the
required SIL
– Requirements for maintenance and testing to
achieve the required SIL
– Reliability requirements if spurious trips may be
hazardous

CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

Logic Description Methods

• Plain Text
– Strengths – Extremely flexible, No special knowledge req’d
– Weaknesses – Time-consuming, transposition to program
code difficult and error prone
• Cause-and-Effect Diagrams
– Strengths – Low level of effort, clear visual representation
– Weaknesses – Rigid format (some functions can not be
represented w/ C-E diagrams), can oversimplify
• Binary Logic Diagrams (ISA 5.2)
– Strengths – More flexible than C-E diagrams, direct
transposition to a function block diagram program
– Weaknesses – Time consuming, knowledge of standard logic
representation required

Exercise 1
Safety Requirements Specification
Describe the logic for an SIF, where a low pressure condition can
cause flame out in a fired heater. In this case, the inputs are a
burner monitor switch BS-01, and a pressure switch PSL-02. The
output is a double-block and bleed assembly whose valves are XV-
03A and XV-03B for the up and downstream blocks, respectively,
and XV-03C for the bleed valve. The valves can be moved to their
safe position by deenergizing solenoid XY-03. The system is
deenergize to trip. Write the logic description in plain text.

Exercise 2
Safety Requirements Specification
Create a Cause-and-Effect diagram that describes the shutdown
that was described in plain text in Exercise 1.

10
CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

Exercise 3
Safety Requirements Specification
Create a Logic diagram that describes the shutdown that was
described in plain text in Exercise 1 and in the Cause-and-Effect
Diagram in Exercise 2.

11
CFSE Exam Preparation: Section I-9

Exercise 1 (Key)
Safety Requirements Specification
If one of the following conditions occur.
1. Switch BS-01 is deenergized, indicating loss of flame
2. Switch PSL-02 is deenergized, indicating low fuel gas pressure
Then the main fuel gas flow to the heater is stopped by performing
the following.
1. closing valves, XV-03A, and XV-03B
2. Opening valve XV-03C.
The respective valves will be opened and closed by
deenergizing the solenoid valve XY-03.

that was described in plain text in Exercise 1.
