1 The switching contact output 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.

2 The number listed is for reference only. The SFF must be determined for the complete

subsystem.

3 SIL AC (architectural constraints) means that the calculated values are within the range

for hardware architectural contraints for the corresponding SIL level.

4 It is assumed that proof testing is performed with a proof test coverage of 99%.
5 The PFD

AVG

was calculated for profile 2 using the Markov modelling. The results must be

considered in combination with PFD

AVG

values of other devices of the Safety Instrumented

Function (SIF) in order to determine suitability for a specific Safety Integrity Level (SIL)
For SIL1 applications, the PFD

AVG

value needs to be < 10

-1

.

For SIL2 applications, the PFD

AVG

value needs to be < 10

-2

.

6 The switching contact output is connected to a standard NAMUR switching amplifier (e.g.

Pepperl+Fuchs KF**-SR2-Ex*.W). The failure rates of the amplifier are not included in the
listed failure rates.
