Failure Analysis
1. A single failure in MX, DCS or remote wiring of the OPEN or CLOSE signals could cause unexpected actuator
motion if such failure could be interpreted by the MXA as a command signal.
2. If a failure occurs in one of PST or ESD signal paths occurs, then the MXA would not interpret the failed signal as a
command and it would not initiate a PST or ESD action.
3. Using NC and NO contacts at the DCS provides an additional layer of safety by eliminating false commands that
could result from failures in the 24Vdc supply, the remote wiring, the DCS or some failure modes in the MXA input
circuits.
