The Safety Manual

This manual is intended for users who have Honeywell HC900 product with SIL certification and intend to

use it in SIF.

Scope

The Safety Manual provides information about HC900 that is relevant for integration into a Safety

Instrumented System (SIS). This manual is aimed at technical personnel responsible for such integration.

The Safety Manual is a reference guide providing detailed information regarding safety aspects in HC900.

A reference guide is a HC900 related guide and does not describe tasks in terms of how to perform the task

in terms of steps to follow. A reference guide can provide input to support decisions required to achieve a

certain objective.

Basic Skills and Knowledge

Before you start work on the HC900 SIS it is assumed that you are certified to do work on safety related

systems and devices, and that you have appropriate knowledge of:

•

The concepts and functioning of the HC900

•

The applicable process and equipment under control within the SIS,

•

This Safety Manual,

•

Site procedures,

•

Applicable safety standards (e.g. IEC 61508 and IEC 61511)

This guide assumes that you have a basic familiarity with the process(es) connected to the equipment under

control and that you have a complete understanding of the hazard and risk analysis

Safety Standards for Process & Equipment Under Control (PUC, EUC)

Processes and Equipment Under Control (PUC/EUC) in the process industry require a high level of safety.

Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) are used to perform Safety Instrumented Functions (SIF).

Instrumentation that is used for SIFs, must meet minimum standards and performance levels. Standards like

IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 have been developed for this purpose. One of the performance criteria that these

standards apply is the Safety Integrity Level (SIL). IEC 61508 details the design requirements for achieving

the required SIL. The safety integrity requirements for each individual safety function may differ. The

safety function and SIL requirements are derived from hazard analysis and risk assessments. The higher the

level of adapted safety integrity, the lower the likelihood of dangerous failure of the SIS, These standards

also address the safety-related sensors and final elements regardless of the technology used.

The HC900 can be used in a specific SIF that demands SIL 1 or SIL 2.

Only the HC900 portion of the EUC control system will be documented in this safety manual.

HC900 can be used only in applications for Demand mode operation.

Safety Integrity Level (SIL)

The IEC 61508 standard specifies 4 levels of safety performance for safety functions. These are called

safety integrity levels. Safety integrity level 1 (SIL1) is the lowest level of safety integrity, and safety

integrity level 4 (SIL4) the highest level. If the level is below SIL1, the IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 do not

apply. HC900 can be used for processing multiple SIFs simultaneously demanding a SIL1 and SIL2.

The IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 Standards

SISs have been used for many years to perform safety instrumented functions e.g. in chemical,

petrochemical and gas plants. In order for instrumentation to be effectively used for safety instrumented

functions, it is essential that the instrumentation meets certain minimum standards and performance levels.

To define the characteristics, main concepts and required performance levels, standards IEC 61508 and IEC

61511 have been developed. The introduction of Safety Integrity level (SIL) is one of the results of these

standards.

This brief provides a short explanation of each standard. Detailed information regarding IEC 61508 and

61511 can be found on the IEC web site, http://www.iec.org.

What standard to use?

•

If you are in the process sector and you are an owner/user, it is strongly recommended that you pay

attention to the IEC 61511 (ANSI/ISA 84.00.01).

•

If you are in the process sector and you are a manufacturer, it is strongly recommended that you pay

attention to the IEC 61508.

•

If you are in another sector, it is strongly recommended that you look for, and use, your sector specific

IEC standard for functional safety (if there is one). If none exists, you can use the IEC 61508 instead.

IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 terminology

This guide contains both IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 related terminology. As the IEC 61511 sits within the

framework of IEC 61508 most of the terminology used may be interchanged. Table 1 below provides an

overview of the most common interchangeable terminology.

The IEC 61508 is called “Functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related

systems” IEC 61508 covers all safety-related systems that are electrotechnical in nature (i.e. Electrical,

Electronic and Programmable Electronic systems (E/E/PE) ).
