It also manages your project documentation with an easy report generation In RTF (for use with a word processor program like Microsoft Word). Sharing data for multi-person projects or for independent review has become easier than ever with the built-in exSILentia import/ export functionality.

exSILentia provides fully customizable SIL selection options like risk graph, hazard matrix, and frequency based targets. In addition, a complete SIF SRS template ensures completeness in requirements definition. exSILentia contains the most comprehensive SIL verification program, SILver, allowing extensive Safety Instrumented Function definition, and an IEC 61508-approved calculation engine based on the Markov Modeling technique. Finally exSILentia has direct access to the exida Safety Equipment Reliability Handbook equipment items, speeding up the process of SIL verification by allowing users to simply select equipment items from the Handbook without having to enter reliability data.
