The complete sensor subsystem will need to be evaluated to determine the overall Safe Failure Fraction.
The number listed is for reference only.
4
SIL AC (architectural constraints) means that the calculated values are within the range for hardware
architectural constraints for the corresponding SIL but does not imply all related IEC 61508 requirements
are fulfilled.

The switching contact output of [V2], [V3] is connected to a fail-safe NAMUR amplifier (e.g. Pepperl+Fuchs
KF**-SH-Ex1). The failure rates of the amplifier are not included in the listed failure rates
