Designing Safety-Related Machinery Control Systems in Accordance with ISO 13849 and IEC 62061

Description

This highly interactive workshop addresses system integrators (machine builders, control panel builders) as well as component manufacturers and suppliers. It can be adapted to suit both advanced and entry levels of functional safety competence. It can be tailored to the specific needs of a specific audience which determines the length of the course.  

Workshop Topics

• Role of EN ISO 13849 and IEC/EN 62061 in machine safety regulations
  • EU Machinery Directive
  • OSHA
• Comparative overview of EN ISO 13849 and IEC/EN 62061
• Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (According to standards ISO 14121, ISO 12100)
• Design in accordance with ISO 13849
  • Risk reduction and required Performance Level
  • Determination of required Performance Level
  • Parameters of Performance Level
  • MTTF: Mean Time To dangerous Failure, DC: Diagnostic Coverage
  • Category, CCF: Measures to avoid Common Cause Failures
  • Failures to be considered and fault exclusion
  • How to perform FMEDA
  • Evaluation of Performance Level (“Simplified procedure”)
  • Software Safety Requirements
  • Software-based parameterisation
  • Combination of SRP/CS to achieve PL
• Design in accordance with IEC 62061 (considering overlaps with ISO 13849)
  • SIL assignment
  • Specification of requirements for SRCFs
  • Functional decomposition
  • Realisation of subsystems
  • Determination of the safety performance of the subsystem
  • Estimation of PFHD of subsystems

• The future of IEC 62061 and ISO 13849

Objectives

• Identify the required risk reduction and functional safety ratings (PL and SIL) to be provided by control systems
• Develop a safety concept that satisfies the requirements of both ISO 13849 and IEC 62061
• Apply the steps required by both ISO 13849 and IEC 62061 to achieve the required risk reduction and validate it

Target Audience

• Hardware/software engineers
• Electrical construction engineers
• Approvals and safety compliance engineers
• Application engineers
• Field installation and service engineers
