SafeTI™–61508

 

IEC 61508 is a functional safety standard for Electrical/Electronic/Programmable Electronic (E/E/PE) Systems. This standard is a basic safety publication, which means it is to be applied to any safety related E/E/PE system unless a specific end-equipment level standard exists. IEC 61508 forms the foundation for many IEC and ISO end equipment-level functional safety standards for industrial process, industrial machinery, medical and a variety of other industries.

Examples of these applications include:

  • Industrial
    • Controllers
    • Remote input/output
    • Human machine interface (HMI)
    • Safety and shutdown systems
    • Turbine control
    • Chemical Processes
 
  • Railway
    • Train control
    • Signaling
    • Braking
  • Medical
    • Infusion pumps
    • Respirators and ventilators

SafeTI-61508 design packages for functional safety include components developed as compliant items to IEC 61508:2010 targeting safety integrity levels (SILs) 1 to 3., which supports SIL levels from SIL-1 to SIL-3. These design packages enable manufacturers of E/E/PE systems to achieve faster and easier system certification.

Products & Applications

For SafeTI-61508 products, component level SIL capability is noted. Achieved SIL per safety function will vary based on customer implementation. Products from other SafeTI categories which are not compliant to IEC 61508 may be usable as QM components in IEC 61508 compliant system designs. Determination of suitability for use in IEC 61508 system designs is the responsibility of the system designer.
