4.2 Consideration of failure probability according to IEC 61 508
To allow calculation of failure probability for the entire system, the AS-i Safety
Monitor returns a component which depends on the maximum uninterrupted
switch-on time of the output circuit(s).
This results in the following table:
The switch-on time describes the period of time until the safety function was re-
quested, or the maximum period of time between two executed safety checks.
During this check, safe shutdown is tested by actuating every safe sensor.
The total operating time describes the safety system's service life from commis-
sioning to disassembly; it is used as the basis for calculating the failure probabili-
ty.
Together with the failure probabilities of the other components used in the safety
system (e.g. AS-i slaves) it is then possible to determine the overall failure proba-
bility. The resulting value can be used for categorising the safety system under
the respective safety level in accordance with IEC 61 508.
