Siemens SINAMICS G220 - Safety Integrated Functions

Note
Fault of Safety Integrated Functions in the case of non-EMC-compliant installation
A non-EMC-compliant installation of your machine/system can result in sporadic faults in Safety
Integrated Functions.
• Install the drive so that it is EMC-compliant.
14.12.1 Safety Integrated Functions
Overview
Safety Integrated Functions are used to reduce risk in safety-related applications.
Description
In comparison to standard converter functions, Safety Integrated Functions have especially high
fail-safety. The Performance Level (PL) and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) of the corresponding
standards are a measure of fail-safety.
Safety Integrated Functions are accordingly suitable for reducing risk in safety-related
applications. If the risk analysis of the machine or the system indicates a special hazard
potential in the application, an application is safety-related.
Safety Integrated means that the functions are integrated into the converter and can be
executed without need of external components.
The converter performs a self-test of the shutdown paths for Safe Torque O󹪜, functions and
failsafe digital inputs and outputs cyclically and in compliance with the standards.
Note
Protection against manipulation by unauthorized third parties
Safety Integrated Functions protect against hardware and software errors, but not against
manipulation by unauthorized third parties.
Protective measures against unauthorized manipulation are described in the Startdrive
Operating Instructions and online help. The measures address the following issues:
• Parameter con󹪝guration of the Safety Integrated Functions
• Connection
• Hardware components
The Safety Integrated Functions comply with:
• Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 3 to IEC61800‑5‑2
• Performance Level (PL) e to ISO13849‑1
• Category 3 or 4 to ISO13849‑1
