Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).

Annex B
(normative)
Estimating B for valves used in functional safety applications
10D
B.1 Introduction
When a machine is built, a risk assessment must be conducted for evaluation of potential hazards
according to ISO 12100. This is also a requirement in the ISO 4413 and ISO 4414 standards for hydraulic
and pneumatic systems. ISO 13849 is a standard that describes a method for risk reduction on safety
related parts of control systems, in accordance with ISO 12100. Components in safety related parts
of control systems shall have sufficient reliability to perform their function when a hazard occurs,
otherwise the component is considered to have failed dangerously.
Reliability of a pneumatic component is typically characterized by its B , η and β values, obtained from
10
a Weibull plot using all defined failures from Clause 8. B values are obtained only from failures that
10D
are classified as dangerous. For pneumatic valves, shifting off-time failures are considered dangerous
failures whereas shifting on-time failures are not considered dangerous because, according to the
basic safety principle (“use of de-energization principle” of ISO 13849-2:2012, Table B.1), that is not the
action typically required for implementing a safety function. Leakage is a performance failure and not
considered a dangerous failure (unless it is so severe as to prevent a return shift). Minimum shifting
pressure is not considered a dangerous failure because it is typically much lower than the operating
pressure of a system. If these or additional failure types (based upon a specific application) lead to a
dangerous failure, these failure mechanisms shall be considered as well. Additional failure mechanisms
shall clearly be based on agreement between supplier and purchaser.
The method for estimating a B life in this Annex is based on using the termination life at the first
10D
termination failure in a sample of seven test units. The cumulative failure for that first of seven test
units is 9,4 % (from a Median Rank table). This is close to the 10 % level on which the B life is
10D
defined, and the first failure life is considered to be an acceptable estimate for the B . Thus, it is not
10D
necessary to continue the test after the first termination failure. If there is one suspension in the sample
of seven test units, before a first termination failure occurs, the cumulative failure is 11,4 % at the first
failure life. This is still considered to be an acceptable estimate of the B life.
10D
The ISO 13849 series of standards includes two other methods to estimate a B life:
10D
1) B = 2 × B if only B data is available,
10D 10 10
2) B = 20 million cycles as a default value if data is not available.
10D
These methods are applicable to a user of the ISO 13849 series of standards if no B values are
10D
available; whereas this Annex is for a supplier for testing to estimate a B value.
10D
B.2 Test equipment and test conditions
Set up the test equipment in accordance with Clause 5.

B.3 Measurement of immediate shifting off-time
B.3.1 General
Testing can be integrated with the procedures described in Clause 7 if all failure data is included in one
test program. But the special procedures in B.3.3 and B.3.4 for shifting time in the return-OFF function
(shifting off-time) shall be followed for valves intended to be used in safety applications.
B.3.2 Functional check
Functional checks shall be conducted according to 7.2.1.
B.3.3 Immediate shifting off-time
The shifting off-time for each valve shall be recorded every time that data is taken. Start from a shifted
position with all volumes attached (including pressure transducers). Apply a supply pressure of
≈6,3 bar (630 kPa) to the inlet port (and also to an external pilot port if so equipped). Conduct a shifting
off-time test (exhaust test) in accordance with ISO 12238, with the excepti
