According to IEC 61511-1, paragraph 11.4.4, the failure tolerance
HFT can be reduced by one for service-proven subsystems if the fol-
lowing conditions are met:
•
The instrument is service proven
•
Only process-relevant parameters can be modified on the instru-
ment (e. g. measuring range, current output in case of failure …)
•
These process-relevant parameters are protected (e.g. password,
…)
•
The safety function requires less than SIL4
The assessment by change management staff was a part of the
"service proven" verification.
1.2 Planning
The measuring system generates on the current output a signal be-
tween 3.8 mA and 20.5 mA corresponding to the level.
This analogue signal is transmitted to a connected processing unit to
monitor the following conditions:
•
Exceeding a preset level
•
Falling below a preset level
When the switching point set on the processing unit is reached, a
signal is output.
