Meridium, exida integrate software tools

CBR Staff Writer Published 13 July 2009

To address safety lifecycle requirements

Meridium, a provider of asset performance management (APM) software, and exida, a certification and research company, have integrated exida’s exSILentia SILver calculation engine and the Safety Equipment Reliability Handbook database into Meridium APM software’s new Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) Management module.

The new Meridium SIS Management software reportedly addresses safety lifecycle requirements and allows users to: assess Safety Integrity Level (SIL) requirements, perform Safety Integrity Level (SIL) verifications, conduct proof testing, and provide monitoring of equipment performance.

Meridium noted that its SIS Management module is already integrated with its Hazards Analysis application and can leverage a suite of APM tools provided by Meridium. This integration is said to facilitate SIL assessment by reducing the data entry process. The software uses the Hazards Analysis risk assessment as the recent SIL assessment for new Protective Instrumented Functions (PIF).

exida said that its exSILentia software is an integrated safety lifecycle engineering tool used for compliance with IEC 61511 / ANSI/ISA 84.00.01-2004.
