Standard EN 61800-5-2: Part 2

Manufacturers and suppliers of safe drives can demonstrate the safety integrity of their products by implementing the normative provisions of this part of EN 61800. This enables a safe drive to be installed into a safety-related control system by applying the principles of EN/IEC 61508, its sector standards (e.g. IEC 61511, IEC 61513, IEC 62061) or EN ISO 13849.

This part of EN 61800 does NOT define any requirements for:

• The hazard and risk analysis for a specific application
• The specification of safety functions for this application
• The assignment of SILs to these safety functions
• The drive system, with the exception of the interfaces
• Secondary hazards (e.g. through failures within a production process)
• Electrical, thermal and energy safety considerations covered in EN 61800-5-1
• The manufacturing process of the PDS/Safety-related (SR)
• The validity of signals and commands for the PDS/Safety-related (SR)
