EN 62061 (Safety of machines - func tional safety of safety-related electrical, electronic and

programmable electronic control systems)

With the risk graph it is possible to investigate all safety-relevant functions and areas of a machine
respectively. The results are the so-called Safety Integrity Level / SIL (1 - 3).The SIL is required

for

the selection of the safety setup and the corresponding components including wiring. The 1 stands
for low safety and the 3 for high safety.

3. Safety design

The safety function described in step 1 is designed. The single components are defined, e.g. safety
relais SAFE CL for the ESPD-function.

4. Definition of the achived performance

The actual performance of the safety function is detected. The safety function is divided in sensors, logic
and actuators. The parameters required to calculation are provided by the component manufactures.

5. Verification

For each single safety function, the in step 4 achieved performance has to be bigger or equal as the in
step 2 defined required performance. If this is not the case the safety function has to be improved.

6. Validation

For the safety function, the validation ensures that all safety-relevant parts achieve the requirements.
