The switching contact output is connected to a fail-safe NAMUR amplier (e.g. Pepperl+Fuchs KF**-SH-Ex1). The failure rates of the
amplier are not included in the listed failure rates
4
The complete sensor subsystem will need to be evaluated to determine the overall Safe Failure Fraction. The number listed is for
reference only.
5
SIL AC (architectural constraints) means that the calculated values are within the range for hardware architectural constraints for the
corresponding SIL but does not imply all related IEC 61508 requirements are fullled.
6
Depending on the application and possible external diagnostics a higher DCD and therefore also a higher category might be possible
to achieve.
7
The switching contact output is connected to a standard switching amplier (e.g. Pepperl+Fuchs KF**-SR2-Ex*.W). The failure rates of
the amplier are not included in the listed failure rates.
