Functional safety –

Not just a question of standards

Start

With the CE Mark of

Conformity the manufacturer

Specification of the limits of the machine declares that his plant and

machinery meet basic safety

requirements. Standards help

Identification of hazards

to provide the basis for veri-

fying that this is actually the

Risk estimation

case. Does this mean that

safety technology is simply a

Risk assessment

question of standards?

Certainly they cover basic

requirements but they do not

absolve the manufacturer from

Measures for risk reduction

of risk assessment and the

implementation of measures.

Analysis of potential hazards / Risk assessment

EN ISO 12100 and EN 1050 (ISO 14121) specify the basic process involved in

identifying dangers, estimating risks and developing and assessing the effectiveness

of measures.

The European Machinery Directive

Manufacturers of plant and machinery

are required to carry out an analysis of

potential dangers and a risk assess-

ment before construction is permitted.

This is stipulated in the European

Machinery Directive 98/37/EC, or the

revised version of 2006/42/EC. The

Machinery Directive has been incorpo-

rated in the national legislation of all

the countries of Europe, which means

that it is legally binding.

The European Commission draws

attention to the fact that the require-

ments of 2006/42/EC, ensuing as a

consequence of the new Machinery

Directive, can and should be complied

with as of now in the development and

manufacture of machinery.

However, up until Dec. 29, 2009 it

is still permissible for Declarations of

Conformity to refer to 98/37/EC only.

CEN/CENELEC

The harmonized standards organized

by CEN/CENELEC provide the manu-

facturers with help with verification

because it can be assumed that in

applying them the manufacturer will

be conforming with the requirements

of the Machinery Directive at the same

time. However, in legal terms they are

not binding.

C standards

C standards stipulate specified

requirements for certain types of

machine such as, for example, machin-

ing centers, printing presses and

paper converting machinery and

presses. Machine types covered by

C standards have had a risk analysis

carried out and the standards also

specify concrete measures for the

reduction of risks for those machine

types.

For those machines or parts of

machines which are not included in

the C standards, the manufacturer is

responsible for undertaking the analy-

sis of potential dangers and the risk

assessment himself.

Standards in a state of change

Up to now the safety-related compo-

nents of machine control systems have

had to be designed in compliance

with EN 954-1. As from November

2009 the only applicable standard will

be its successor, EN ISO 13849-1.

This means that EN 954-1 may only

be used for a transitional period for

machines brought into circulation

before the deadline of October 2009.

Accounting for failure probabilities

EN 954-1 takes a deterministic

approach which is largely defined by

hardware-oriented structures and cat-

egories. With the growing importance of

programmable electronics, in particular,

in safety technology, it became neces-

sary to adjust the simple error model

to account for advances in technology

and take account of modern concepts

as well.

The new safety standards therefore take

account of a probabilistic approach.

Instead of considering the failure of

a safety function in absolute terms it

is assessed in terms of probability.

Depending on the potential risk, the

safety measure has to demonstrate a

certain level of reliability, i.e. there must

only be a certain probability of it failing.

The entire product life-cycle is taken

into account because many systematic

“faults” occur early on in the planning

stage. From the specifications and

implementation to modifications and

taking out of operation, requirements are

made of all the phases in the life-cycle.

Implementation is checked by means

of verification and validation which

has to be planned in concrete form in

advance as part of a “Functional Safety

Management Process” designed to

ensure that quality is guaranteed.

January 2006

EN 61800-5-2

IEC 61508

IEC 61508

The IEC 61508 standard is the “mother”

of all safety standards which take a

holistic probabilistic approach. It classi-

fies the probabilities of failure in Safety

Integrity Levels (SIL) 1–4, with the

requirements of SIL 4 being the highest.

As a general rule this standard is used

by manufacturers of safety devices as

a test standard. For machine builders,

however, the requirements and mea-

sures are specified on a user-oriented

basis in standards IEC 62061/

IEC ISO 13849-1.

IEC 62061:2005

Since Jan. 1, 2006 the IEC 62061

standard can be taken into account as

a harmonized standard for electrically

and electronically programmable safety

technology in machines. It is based

on IEC 61508 and applies the level

restricted to SIL 1–3 for classification.

In order to simplify the calculation of reli-

ability for the safety function, it specifies

4 sub-system architectures. In terms of

the programming of the safety applica-

tion, the requirements of IEC 62061 are

more limited than those of IEC 61508in relation to the graphic programminglanguages line ladder diagram (LD) orfunction block diagram (FBD).

ISO 13849-1:2006

ISO 13849-1 is based on the well-known hardware-oriented structuresand categories in EN 954-1 but alsocombines them with failure probabili-ties. Unlike the IEC 62061 standard,ISO 13849-1 can also be applied tonon-electrical/non-electronic systems.The requirements are grouped in5 performance levels (PL).

ISO 13849-1 is also restricted tosimple graphic programming lan-guages.

IEC 61800-5-2:2007

The IEC 61800-5-2 standard is aproduct standard for electrical driveswith integrated safety functions.The requirements are based onIEC 61508 and are also expressedin Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 1–3.

The required reliability of a safety

function is determined with reference

to severity (S), frequency (F) and

potential for prevention (P). The

required performance level (PL)

is determined in accordance with

ISO 13849-1 on the basis of

classifications.

In contrast, IEC 62061 allocates

points [1 – 5] for the evaluation of

the influencing factors and takes

the likelihood of occurrence into

consideration (W). The sum of

F+W+P therefore determines the

required SIL in dependency on

the severity (S).

For the evaluation of the achieved level

of safety integrity, IEC 62061 stipulates

a simplified mathematical procedure for

predefined system structures.

ISO 13849-1 on the other hand speci-

fies the estimation of reliability (PL) as

being dependent on the hardware-orient-

ed structure (category), the determined

mean time to dangerous failure (MTTFd)

and the diagnostic coverage (DC) of a

safety function.

Standards for functional safety –European and worldwide

Country-specific regulations

generally make it necessary

ISO 12100 /

ISO 13849-1

Safety standards in the USA

The 1970 Occupational Health and

Safety Act requires that safety has

to be guaranteed for all work on

plant and machinery. In particular, if

the owner/operator of the machine

knowingly allows his personnel to be

exposed to preventable hazards, he

can expect to pay penalties running

to millions of dollars in the event of

an accident. The Occupational Safety

and Health Administration (OSHA)

issues higher authority standards, but

also often refers to “standards” of the

“American National Standard Institute

(ANSI)”, which can be applied in a

similar way to the European presump-

tive effect.

User organizations and associations

such as the NFPA, NEMA, PMMI, RIA,

etc., also produce additional machine-

specific standards which are often

incorporated in an ANSI standard.

International harmonization of

standards

The introduction of the IEC 61508

standard and other standards derived

from it such as IEC 62061 and

ISO 13849-1 is a further step towards

the international harmonization of the

relevant safety standards. These stan-

dards have already had an influence

on many American standards and/or

compliance with the standards is

made a condition for the use of safety-

related components. The ANSI/PMMI

B155.1 (2006) standard, for example,

harmonized the process for risk analy-

sis in accordance with ISO 12100 /

ISO 14121and refers to IEC 61508,

IEC 62061 and ISO 13849-1, among

others. The 2007 edition of the NFPA

79 takes account of drive systems

which have been tested as acceptable

in accordance with IEC 61508 and/or

IEC 61800-5-2.

NRTL Listing

The OSHA designates testing orga-

nizations as “National Recognized

Testing Laboratories (NRTL)”. Even

where these institutions make use of

IEC 61508, for example, as the basis

for testing and the results of the test

correspond to those carried out by a

testing organization certified in the EU,

many North American companies still

insist on a test by an NRTL. Bosch

Rexroth therefore works with TÜV

Rheinland North America Inc. as it

is a testing organization which has

NRTL-certification from the OSHA.
