Automatic shut-off valves for gas burners and gas appliances - Special requirements to determine the performance level (PL)
The intention is to add a further Annex to EN 161 regarding a method for the determination of Performance Level (PL): This Annex is only applicable to valves or valve functions which are declared to comply with performance level requirements (PL) according to EN ISO 13849-1:2008, clauses 1, 2, 3, 4.1, 4.2, 4.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and annexes C.4, E, and F. This Annex specifies a set of additional requirements to EN 161 to determine the probability of dangerous failures per hour for continuous or high demand mode (PFHD) and the performance level (PL) for electromechanical valves or valve functions used in industrial and thermoprocessing applications (e. g. EN 746-2).

This document (EN 161:2011/prA1:2011) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 58 “Safety and

SIST EN 161:2011/oprA1:2011
EN 161:2011/prA1:2011 (E)
Introduce the following modification to EN 161:2011:
Foreword
th
Add the following wording after 8 paragraph of EN 161:2011, Foreword:
Primarily in industrial applications it is common practice to rate the safety of a plant based on values
describing the likelihood of a dangerous failure. These values are being used to determine Safety Integrity
Levels or Performance Levels when the system is being assessed in its entirety.
CEN/TC58 standards for safety relevant controls do go beyond this approach, because for a certain life span
for which the product is specified, designed and tested a dangerous failure is not allowed at all. Failure modes
are described and assessed in greater detail. Measures to prevent from dangerous situations are defined.
Field experience over many decades is reflected in the CEN/TC 58 standards. Requirements of these
standards can be considered as proven in practice. The PL assessment in Annex AA is only applicable to
automatic shut-off valves which are already certified to this European Standard. It can not be presumed that
any Safety Integrity Level or Performance Level assessment alone would imply that requirements of a
CEN/TC 58 standard have been met.
To be able to provide parameters to allow for any formal Safety Integrity Level or Performance Level system
assessment the Annexes AA and BB of this document define a methodology to derive the relevant parameters
from the requirements of this standard.

Annex BB
(informative)
Model of a FMEA for valves
A simplified example of a FMEA based on Figure BB.1 is given in Table BB.1. This example is not complete
and only shows the method to perform a FMEA.
NOTE For simplification the solenoid is not shown in the Figure BB.1.
To perform a FMEA for a single seated valve according to Table BB.1 the following is considered:
assembly and production failures are not regarded;
failure fields: design failures, random internal and external failures with possibility of influence in design;
product: automatic shut-off valve, at least safety related sub-assemblies;
safety functions to be considered:
1) safe closure through internal energy storage in case of loss of external power supply;
2) closing time requirements for safety shut down maintained;
3) internal leak-tightness maintained;
4) external leak-tightness maintained.
