Burner Management System Safety Integrity Level Selection
by Michael D. Scott, P.E., aeSolutions Founder
This paper will discuss how quantitative methods can be utilized to select the appropriate Safety
Integrity Level associated with Burner Management Systems. Identifying the required amount of risk
reduction is extremely important especially when evaluating existing legacy Burner Management
Systems. Selection of an overly conservative Safety Integrity Level can have significant cost impacts.
These costs will either be associated with increased Safety Instrumented System functional testing or
complete removal / upgrade of the existing Burner Management System. In today’s highly competitive
business environment, unnecessary costs of any kind cannot be tolerated.
