Safety and reliability related values according to DIN EN ISO
13849-1
Safety and reliability related values MTTF, PL and Category according to DIN EN ISO
13849-1 have been evaluated for VIBROCONTROL 920 with the following results:
Test conditions:
♦ Operating temperatures: 50 °C.
♦ Environmental conditions: Ground Benign, Controlled
Note:
The results of this assessment are valid when the following procedures are
followed:
♦ The Relays of the VIBROCONTROL 920 have to be operated in the
„normally energised” mode.
♦ The analog 4-20 mA signal industry-standard current loops must be
used.
♦ The OK Relay has to be used as system function.
♦ The VIBROCONTROL 920 system must be protected against erroneous
change in configuration.
Abbreviations:
MTTF Mean Time To Failure
PL Performance Level From PL "a" (highest failure probability) to PL "e"
(lowest failure probability)
Category Category (CAT)
Classification of the safety related parts of a control system in
respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in
the fault condition, and which is achieved by the structural
arrangement of the parts, fault detection and/or by their reliability.
