DeviceNet Safety System
Complies with the Highest Safety Standards in the world
The DeviceNet Safety System conforms to IEC 61508 SIL3 for functional safety, and EN 954-1 Category 4 for machine safety,
complying with the world's highest level of safety standards.
IEC 61508 SIL 3
Safety circuits must be able to function to provide safety at anytime.
Conversely, the degree of lack of safety is used as the indicator. In
IEC 61508, safety is defined as the Probability of Failure per Hour, or
PFH. Based on this, the SIL (Safety Level) is classified into four lev-
els. SIL 3 indicates a probability of dangerous failure of once in 1,000
years, which is the highest level in machine safety.
EN 954-1 Safety Category 4
EN standards evaluate the level of machine risk and require the incor-
poration of risk minimization measures. In EN 954-1, five safety cate-
gories have been established, with Safety Category 4 indicating
designs that require the highest safety design level. This category is
demanded for machines with the highest level of danger, wherein "se-
rious injury (severed limbs, death, etc.) will occur frequently, with little
chance of escaping danger." This category demands that a single
fault (failure) in any part of the machine, or a series of faults, will not
lead to loss of the machine's safety functions.
