Safety Lifecycle made easy. SIL Solver® Enterprise+ (SSE+) v2.6 is a functional safety lifecycle tool for instrumented protection layers, such as safe operating procedures, safety alarms, BPCS IPL, safety instrumented systems, high-integrity protective systems, fire and gas systems, and equipment protection systems. SSE+ v2.6
eliminates barriers to process safety information, including the hazard registry, functional requirements, design configuration, performance verification, and maintenance plan. SSE+ improves work efficiency and reduces errors. It supports concurrent users so that multiple stakeholders can access information simultaneously.
Metadata SSE+ reduces data inconsistency and improves data analysis quality. Workflow screens capture information concisely for viewing as forms, records, or tables. Change information in one place, and the change propagates immediately to all stakeholders.
An Extensive Database. SSE+ integrates an extensive device database with a calculation engine that delivers significant cost and time savings. Updated in 2024, the database includes reliability parameters for electrical, electronic, programmable electronic, hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical devices in typical process industrial environments. Recognized by CCPS and ISA, the expanded database includes SIL-rated and prior-use devices.
Procedures SSE+ creates detailed FAT, SAT, online, and offline test procedures by integrating user-defined templates with safety-related Tag Data, including the manufacturer and model number of the installed equipment.
System List SSE+ uses an LED display to indicate the completeness of the system information. When the LEDs go green, the documentation for the instrumented protection layers is complete.
Dashboard SSE+’s dashboard summarizes the number of each type of layer, the risk reduction of the layers, and the performance estimate for the layers. The dashboard allows the data to be filtered using the location structure defined by the SSE+ Admin. Users can view the summaries at the unit, site, region, or company level or by equipment type.
Easy Documentation. SSE+ provides individual reports and typical deliverables. Our SIL Verification Report includes the function graphic, data sheets, calculation assumptions, design details, and summary. The Safety Requirements Specification consists of the process requirements specification, functional requirements specification, I/O List, and Alarm and Message List. Select the tags you want to test and generate procedures using the current tag specifications and SRS information.
Safety function modeling. Safety functions are built as subsystems using channels comprised of single devices, multiple diverse devices, or multiple voting devices. SSE+ allows the configuration of up to 3 diverse devices in series in each channel of a subsystem, and each device can be voted in the channel. Overall, subsystem voting can be MooN. This means that SSE+ can model everything from simple to complex functions. On-screen pie charts give a visual snapshot of how each subsystem type affects the overall results. This enables you to rapidly zero in on your best opportunities for improving the safety function design.
Diagnostics and Test Plan SSE+’s data table supports rapid diagnostic configuration and test interval selection updates. The diagnostic and test specifications flow to the SRS, I/O List, and Tag Data reports.
Traceability SSE+ provides questionnaires for documenting the Functional Safety Assessment (FSA) and Audit. Users can modify the questionnaire or use their procedure to drive FSAs and Audits. Final FSA and Audit reports can be uploaded in any format for long-term retention.
Data Access and Management In SSE+, the database is centralized and shared by all users. The systems are assigned to an enterprise hierarchy recommended by ISO-14224:2016. SSE+ defines the hierarchy using Company, Region, Location, and Unit. Site or system admins assign users rights to view or modify. Users see what they need to see, and SSE+ controls what they can modify.
Software Licensing Options SSE+ is a web server, browser-based software application for managing data and information for instrumented protection layers. SSE+ is a cloud-based application that can be licensed as Software as a Service (SaaS) or self-hosted. Each SSE+ server license includes one IT Admin and one read-write User license.
