1.2.5.6 Commissioning and maintenance
1.2.5.6.1 Commissioning
Before the system is taken into use the safety functions must be tested/validated.
The STO-SBC function shall be activated/deactivated and the reactions shall be monitored (the reaction
depends if used as emergency stop or prevention of unexpected start-up or something else).
1. Safety wiring diagrams and the commissioning test shall be documented and stored (who,what,when)
2. Define maintenance routines according to the need (see chapter maintenance)
1.2.5.6.2 Maintenance
IEC 61800-5-2:2017 requires to have a maintenance test for STO-SBC function. The frequency of testing
depends on the required safety level:
one test per year for SIL 2 , PL d / category 3
one test per three months for SIL 3 , PL e / category 3
The maintenance test can be done by activating STO/SBC function through STO-SBC inputs and observe the
reaction of the system.
