SIMATIC Factory Safety

Standards and certificates

To obtain the functional safety of a machine or plant, the safety-relevant components of the protection and control equipment must function reliably and must respond in the event of a fault in such a way that the plant remains in or is brought to a safe mode. To make this possible, the products involved must meet certain special requirements. These demands are written into standards. The relevant product certificates confirm compliance with these standards.

All safety components fulfill the demands of the highest safety level:

IEC 61508 and EN 62061 (up to SIL 3)
EN 954-1 (up to Category 4)
EN ISO 13849-1 (up to PL e)
NFPA 79 - 2002
NFPA 85
TÜV certificate no: Z10 05 08 20411 002
UL 1998, UL 508, UL 991
