3.4 Proof test interval
The time intervals for proof testing are defined by the SIL verification calculation (subject
to the PFDAVG). The proof tests must be performed more frequently than or as frequently
as specified in the SIL verification calculation in order to maintain the required safety
integrity of the overall SIF.
Results from periodic proof tests shall be recorded and periodically reviewed. For the
specification of customer requirements required to fulfil this SIS requirement, please see
IEC-61511.
