Performance and Safety Integrity Levels
This table describes the performance and safety integrity levels associated to the 1 channel application:
Application type |
Performance Level (PL) and maximum category (IEC/ISO 13849-1) |
Maximum Safety Integrity Level (SIL) (IEC/EN 62061) |
---|---|---|
1 channel application |
PL c, category 2 |
SIL 1 |
The inputs and outputs behavior description may be based on chronograms. In those chronograms, the following convention on signals status applies:
I/O behavior |
Status |
---|---|
![]()
|
On |
![]()
|
Off |
![]()
|
Optional |
Both the safety conditions and the start conditions must be valid before allowing the activation of outputs.
|
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION |
Do not use either the monitored start or the non-monitored start as a safety function. |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |

This figure represents the output activation management in a 1 channel application with a non-monitored start:
Events description:
1.Non-monitored start condition is available as long as the start input is on.
The start condition can be valid before the safety input.
The outputs are on only if start + safety input conditions are valid.
2.Safety inputs + start conditions are valid
3.Safety inputs condition invalid
4.The outputs react to the safety input and start conditions with a delay given by system constraints.

This figure represents the output activation management in a 1 channel application with a monitored start:
Events description:
1.Monitored start condition is triggered by a falling edge on the start input.
2.Safety inputs + start conditions are valid
3.Safety inputs condition invalid
4.The outputs react to the safety input and start conditions with a delay given by system constraints.
