Characteristics of Safety Tags, the Safety Task, and Safety Programs
SIL 2 Safety Applications
You can perform SIL 2 safety control by using the 1756 or 1768 GuardLogix
controller’s safety task.
Because 1756 GuardLogix controllers are part of the ControlLogix series of
processors, you can perform SIL 2 safety control with a 1756 GuardLogix
controller by using standard tasks or the safety task. This capability provides
unique and versatile safety control options, as most applications have a higher
percentage of SIL 2 safety functions than SIL 3 safety functions.
SIL 2 Safety Control in the Safety Task
The 1756 and 1768 GuardLogix safety task can be used to provide SIL 2 as well
as SIL 3 safety functions. If SIL 3 safety functions need to be performed at the
same time as SIL 2 safety functions, you must fulfill the requirements defined in
the
, and
sections
of this chapter, as well as the SIL 2 requirements listed in this section.
SIL 2 Safety Logic
From a GuardLogix safety control perspective, the biggest difference between
SIL 2 and SIL 3 safety-rated devices is that SIL 2 is generally single-channel,
while SIL 3 is typically dual-channel. When using Guard safety-rated I/O (red
modules), which is required in the safety task, SIL 2 safety inputs can be single
channel which can reduce complexity and the number of modules that are
necessary.
It is up to the safety system designer to properly implement all safety functions.
Consideration must be given to:
•
field device selection (proper selection, identify and mitigate all device
faults)
•
consider safety demand requirements (low IEC 61511 or high
ISO 13849)
•
consider test intervals (diagnostics and proof testing needed to satisfy
application requirements)
•
identify, and justify with proper documentation any fault exclusions that
are used
Within the safety task, RSLogix 5000 software includes a set of safety-related
ladder-logic instructions. In addition to these safety-rated ladder logic
instructions, GuardLogix controllers feature application-specific SIL 3-rated
safety instructions. All of these logic instructions may be used in Cat 1…4 and
SIL 1…3 safety functions.
IMPORTANT
If a combination of SIL 2 and SIL 3 safety functions are used at the same
time within the safety task, you must prevent SIL 2 input signals from
directly controlling SIL 3 safety functions. This can be done by using specific
safety task programs or routines to separate SIL 2 and SIL 3 safety
functions.
