Acronym
Description
DC
D
Diagnostic Coverage of dangerous failures.
Diagnostic coverage is the ratio of the detected failure rate to the total failure rate.
FIT
Failure In Time (1x10
-9
failures per hour)
FMEA
Failure Modes Effects Analysis is a structured qualitative analysis of a system,
subsystem, process, design or function to identify potential failure modes, their
causes and their effects on (system) operation.
FMEDA
Failure Modes Effects and Diagnostic Analysis adds a qualitative failure data for all
components being analyzed and ability of the system to detect internal failures via
automatic on-line diagnostics parts to FMEA.
HFT
Hardware Fault Tolerance
Low demand mode Mode, where the frequency of demand for operation made on a safety-related
system is not greater than one per year and not greater than twice the proof-test
frequency.
High demand
mode
Mode, where the frequency of demands for operation made on a safety-related
system is greater than one per year and greater than twice the proof-check
frequency.
MTBF
Mean Time Between Failure is average time between failure occurrences.
MTTR
Mean Time To Restoration is average time needed to restore normal operation after
a failure has occurred.
PFD
AVG
Probability of Failure on Demand is the average probability of a system to fail to
perform its design function on demand.
PFH
Probability of Failure per Hour is the probability of a system to have a dangerous
failure occur per hour.
SFF
Safe Failure Fraction summarizes the fraction of failure, which lead to a safe state
and the fraction of failures which will be detected by diagnostic measures and lead
to a defined safety action.
SIF
Safety Instrumented Function
SIL
Safety Integrity Level
Type A component
/ Type A element
"Non-complex" subsystem (all failure modes are well defined);
for details see 7.4.3.1.2 of IEC 61508-2:2000 / 7.4.4.1.2 of IEC 61508-2:2010.
Type B component
/ Type B element
"Complex" subsystem (at least one failure mode are not well defined);
for details see 7.4.3.1.3 of IEC 61508:2000 / 7.4.4.1.3 of IEC 61508-2:2010.
