SIL 2/3 Relays for all
applications, with or without
Line & Load Diagnostics

Technology
Safety SIL Certified Safety Relays
Relays
 A standard relay CANNOT be used in a SIF!

 A SIL certified relay (Safety Relay) is a relay with a known and guaranteed ability
to perform a given Safety Function

 Safety Function aim is to reach a specific Safe State on demand (i.e. open a
relief valve or activate a Fire Extinguishing System)

 Most of the time (i.e ESD, HIPPS, BMS etc…) the Safety Function is NE (Normally
Energized)  DTS (De-Energize To Safety)

 In F&G/FF applications most of the Safety Functions are ND (Normally De-


Energized)  ETS (Energize To Safety)

Safety Typical applications
Relays
On the field side a generic load is connected to the relay module, together with its
power supply. The contacts are activated by a DCS/PLC DO.

Typical Safety Relays applications: + / AC


 Solenoid Valves (SOV) in ESD
and Fire & Gas systems
 Beacons, Horns, Beamers and
PLC
other signaling devices Output
 Burner Management Systems
(BMS) Relay module
Load
 AC or DC Motors
- / AC

Safety Safety Relays for any critical application
Relays
Any time a relay is required and must be used in a SIF, it must conform and adhere
to IEC 61508 and to the relevant industry standard (i.e. 61511).
Typical cases :
 Controller cannot meet power requirement (V or A)
 Multiplication of contacts is required
 Controller Safety Function must be inverted

SIL certified relays are not used exclusively in Oil & Gas or Petrochemical industries;
they are also a must in many other industries:
 Railways
 Cars and Lift
 Power Distribution
 Any time a failure of the relay can cause a serious accident

Safety Safety Functions
Relays
Safety Functions can be basically divided in two main groups:
 ETS, Energize to Safety
 DTS, De-Energize to Safety
From which four operating conditions: SIL 3 relay application basic priniciple
 NE Relay Coil – NE Load
(NO Relay Contacts)
De-Energized to Trip/Safety applications
 ND Relay Coil – ND Load
(NO Relay Contacts)
 NE Relay Coil - ND Load
(NC Relay Contacts)
 ND Relay Coil – NE Load Energized to Trip/Safety applications
(NC Relay Contacts)

GMI Safety Manufacturing excellence
Relays WIDE TEMPERATURE RANGE
Operating temperature certified from -40°C to +70°C

Very high reliability in extreme environment applications.

Reduced cabinet dimensions, require less ventilation.

Longer lifetime
Capability to withstand higher temperatures, improves the
lifetime in normal conditions (i.e. 30 °C).
Two devices with different temperature rating (i.e. +60°C and
+70°C) operating in the same environment (i.e. +50°C) have
different life expectancy; where the lower rated is
significantly shorter.
