Differentiation of the use of IEC 62061 – ISO 13849

IEC 62061
• applicable for all electrical and electronical systems with any architecture.
• SIL 1 up to 3
• programmable logic controller (PLC etc) have to fulfil IEC 61508

EN ISO 13849-1
• applicable for hydraulic, pneumatic and electromechanical systems without
restrictions.
• applicable for programmable electronic only with restrictions
• certain architecture
• up to PL d resp. SIL 2
• programmable logic controller for PL e (SPS etc) have to fulfil
IEC 61508
• calculation concept of ISO 13849-1 based on predefined architectures

Safety switch off of voltage on standard components

1. The safety system is Ple


2. The feedback of the contactors is taken in
consideration
3. The MTTFd of each module and each contactor
has to be taken in consideration.
