3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

3 FunctionThe gas solenoid valve VAS is closed when it is disconnected from the power supplyOpening connect the system to the electrical power supply (alternating voltage will be rectified) The blue LED lights up The coilrsquos magnetic field pulls the armature with the attached valve disc upwards The gas solenoid valve VAS opens The double valve seat means that the forces from the inlet pres-sure are divided almost equally between the two valve seatsClosing disconnect the VAS from the electrical power supply The blue LED goes out The armature is pressed into its initial position by the closing spring The gas solenoid valve closes within 1 sThe strainer in the inlet of the gas solenoid valve prevents deposits of dirt particles on the valve seats The pressure loss through the strainer is very low

VAS 1 ndash 8 N VAS 1 ndash 3 LThe flow rate can be varied by a flow adjusting screw on the actuator within a range from 20 to 100 On VAS 1 ndash 3 the setting can be monitored on an indicator

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

By turning the damping unit the start gas rate can be set between 0 and 70 turning it clockwise will reduce the start gas rate turning it anti-clockwise will increase the gas start rate

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 9 Mean dangerous failure rate λd Mean rate of dangerous failures during operation time (T10d) Unit 1hfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 9 Mean dangerous failure rate λd Mean rate of dangerous failures during operation time (T10d) Unit 1hfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 9 Mean dangerous failure rate λd Mean rate of dangerous failures during operation time (T10d) Unit 1hfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

7 1 InstallationInstallation position black solenoid actu-ator in the vertical upright position or tilt-ed up to the horizontal not upside down In humid environments black solenoid actuator in the vertical upright position only

Gas solenoid valve VAS and double solenoid valve VCS must not be in con-tact with masonry Minimum clearance 20 mm (079)Do not store or install the unit in the open air

Ensure that there is sufficient space for installation and adjustment

If more than three valVario controls are installed in line the controls must be supported

Sealing material and dirt eg thread cuttings must not be allowed to get into the valve housingInstall a filter upstream of every system

The solenoid body heats up during op-eration depending on ambient tempera-ture and voltage

The seals in some gas compression fit-tings are approved for temperatures of up to 70degC (158degF) This temperature limit will not be exceeded if the flow through the pipe is at least 1 msup3h (3531 SCFH) of gas and the maximum ambient tem-perature is 50degC (122degF)

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 9 Mean dangerous failure rate λd Mean rate of dangerous failures during operation time (T10d) Unit 1hfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 9 Mean dangerous failure rate λd Mean rate of dangerous failures during operation time (T10d) Unit 1hfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 Glossary11 1 Diagnostic coverage DCMeasure of the effectiveness of diagnostics which may be determined as the ratio between the failure rate of detected dangerous failures and the failure rate of total dangerous failuresNOTE Diagnostic coverage can exist for the whole or parts of a safety-related system For example diagnostic cover-age could exist for sensors andor logic system andor final elements Unit from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 2 Mode of operationHigh demand mode or continuous modeOperating mode where the frequency of demands for opera-tion made on a safety-related system is greater than one per year or greater than twice the proof-test frequencyfrom EN 61508-42001

11 3 CategoryClassification of the safety-related parts of a control system in respect of their resistance to faults and their subsequent behaviour in the fault condition and which is achieved by the structural arrangement of the parts fault detection andor by their reliability from EN ISO 13849-12008

11 4 Common cause failure CCFFailures of different items resulting from a single event where these failures are not consequences of each otherfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 5 Fraction of undetected common cause failures β Fraction of undetected failures of redundant components due to a single event whereby these failures are not based on mutual causesNOTE β is expressed as a fraction in the equations and as a percentage elsewherefrom EN 61508-62010

11 6 B10d valueMean number of cycles until 10 of the components fail dan-gerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 7 T10d valueMean time until 10 of the components fail dangerouslyfrom EN ISO 13849-12008

11 8 Hardware fault tolerance HFTA hardware fault tolerance of N means that N + 1 is the mini-mum number of faults that could cause a loss of the safety functionfrom IEC 61508-22010

11 9 Mean dangerous failure rate λd Mean rate of dangerous failures during operation time (T10d) Unit 1hfrom EN ISO 13849-12008
