LinMot Installation Guide C1100
DC (Diagnostic Coverage) is high (99%) assuming that the state of the feedback contacts is
checked after each change of the state of the control contacts.
MTTFd mainly depends on the number of operations of the safety relays.
Example calculation of MTTFd:
Assuming that the safety function is requested every 20s on a machine running 24h per day
and 7 days per week.

according the standard for further calculations)
