Safety of machinery - Safety-related parts of control systems - Part 2: Validation (ISO 13849-2:2003)

This European Standard specifies the procedures and conditions to be followed for the validation by analysis and testing of:;the safety functions provided, and;the category achieved of the safety-related parts of the control system in complianc e with EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1), using the design rationale prov ided by the designer.

Sicherheit von Maschinen - Sicherheitsbezogene Teile von Steuerungen - Teil 2: Validierung (ISO 13849-2:2003)

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Vorgehensweisen und Bedingungen in Übereinstimmung mit EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1) fest, die bei der Validierung durch Analyse und Prüfung zu befolgen sind, für:
- die vorgesehenen Sicherheitsfunktionen und
- die ausgeführten Kategorien
der sicherheitsbezogenen Teile von Steuerungen, bei Anwendung der durch den Konstrukteur vorgesehenen sinnvollen Gestaltung.
Diese Europäische Norm gibt keine vollständigen Validierungsanforderungen für programmierbare elektronische Systeme und kann deshalb die Anwendung anderer Normen erfordern.
ANMERKUNG   CEN/TC 114/WG 6 schlägt vor, sich eingehender mit der Validierung von programmierbaren elektronischen Systemen bei der Erarbeitung der Änderung der EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1) zu befassen. Eine Anwendungsnorm für Maschinen (Entwurf IEC 62061), der die IEC 61508 zu Grunde liegt, wird zurzeit erarbeitet. Die Anforderungen für programmierbare elektronische Systeme, einschließlich der damit verbundenen Software, sind in IEC 61508 enthalten.

Sécurité des machines - Parties des systèmes de commande relatifs à la sécurité - Partie 2: Validation (ISO 13849-2:2003)

L'ISO 13849-2:2003 spécifie les procédures et conditions à suivre pour la validation par analyse et par essais:
des fonctions de sécurité assurées, et
de la catégorie atteinte
par les parties de système de commande relatives à la sécurité en conformité avec l'EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1), en utilisant le raisonnement de conception fourni par le concepteur.
La présente Norme internationale ne donne pas de prescriptions complètes de validation pour les systèmes électroniques programmables et peut par conséquent nécessiter l'utilisation d'autres normes.

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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 13849-2 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) in collaboration with
Technical Committee ISO/TC 199, Safety of machinery, in accordance with the Agreement on technical
cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).

ISO 13849-2:2003(E)

Introduction
For the use in the European Union, this part of EN ISO 13849 has the status of a generic safety standard (type B1).
This European Standard specifies the validation process, including both analysis and testing, for the safety
functions and categories for the safety–related parts of control systems. Descriptions of the safety functions and
the requirements for the categories are given in EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1) which deals with the general principles for
design. Some requirements for validation are general and some are specific to the technology used.
EN ISO 13849-2 also specifies the conditions under which the validation by testing of the safety-related parts of
control systems should be carried out.
EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1) specifies the safety requirements and gives guidance on the principles for the design [see
EN 292-1:1991 (ISO/TR 12100:1992), 3.11] of the safety-related parts of control systems. For these parts it
specifies categories and describes the characteristics of their safety functions, regardless of the type of energy
used. Additional advice on EN 954-1 (ISO 13894-1) is given in CR 954-100 (ISO/TR 13849-100).
The achievement of the requirements can be validated by any combination of analysis (see clause 4) and testing
(see clause 5). The analysis should be started as early as possible within the design process.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the procedures and conditions to be followed for the validation by analysis and

testing of:
 the safety functions provided, and
 the category achieved
of the safety-related parts of the control system in compliance with EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1), using the design
rationale provided by the designer.
This European Standard does not give complete validation requirements for programmable electronic systems and
therefore can require the use of other standards.
NOTE CEN/TC 114/WG 6 proposes to deal in more detail with the validation of programmable electronic systems in the
elaboration of the revision to EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1). An application standard for machinery (draft IEC 62061), based on IEC
61508, is under preparation. Requirements for programmable electronic systems, including embedded software, are given in
IEC 61508.
2 Normative references
This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These
normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. For
dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European
Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the
publication referred to applies (including amendments).
EN 292-1:1991 (ISO/TR 12100:1992), Safety of machinery — Basic concepts, general principles for design —
Part 1: Basic terminology, methodology.
EN 954-1:1996 (ISO 13849-1:1999), Safety of machinery — Safety-related parts of control systems — Part 1:
General principles for design.
3 Validation process
3.1 Validation principles
The purpose of the validation process is to confirm the specification and the conformity of the design of the safety-
related parts of the control system within the overall safety requirements specification of the machinery.
The validation shall demonstrate that each safety-related part meets the requirements of EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1),
in particular:
 the specified safety characteristics of the safety functions provided by that part, as set out in the design
rationale, and
 the requirements of the specified category [see EN 954-1:1996 (ISO 13849-1:1999), clause 6].
Validation should be carried out by persons who are independent of the design of the safety-related part(s).
rd
NOTE Independent person does not necessarily mean that a 3 party test is required.
The degree of independence should reflect the safety performance of the safety-related part.
Validation consists of applying analysis (see clause 4) and, if necessary, executing tests (see clause 5) in
accordance with the validation plan. Figure 1 gives an overview of the validation process. The balance between the
analysis and/or testing depends on the technology.

SIST EN ISO 13849-2:2008
ISO 13849-2:2003(E)

The analysis should be started as early as possible and in parallel with the design process, so that problems can
be corrected early whilst they are still relatively easy to correct, i. e. during steps 3 and 4 of EN 954-1:1996
(ISO 13849-1:1999), 4.3. It can be necessary for some parts of the analysis to be delayed until the design is well
developed.
For large systems, due to the size, complexity or integrated form (with the machinery) of the control system, special
arrangements may be made for:
 validation of the safety-related parts of the control system separately before integration including simulation of
the appropriate input and output signals;
 validation of the effects of integrating safety-related parts into the remainder of the control system within the
context of its use in the machine.

ISO 13849-2:2003(E)
3.2 Generic fault lists
The validation process involves consideration of behaviour of the safety-related part(s) of the control system for all
faults to be considered. A basis for fault consideration is given in the fault lists in the informative annexes (A.5, B.5,
C.5 and D.5) which are based on experience. The generic fault lists contain:
 the components/elements to be included, e. g. conductors/cables (see D.5.2);
 the faults to be taken into account, e. g. short circuits between conductors;
 the permitted fault exclusions;
 a remarks section giving the reasons for the fault exclusions.
Only permanent faults are taken into account.
3.3 Specific fault lists
A specific product-related fault list shall be generated as a reference document for the validation process of the
safety-related part(s). The list can be based on the appropriate generic list(s) found in the annex(es).
Where the specific product-related fault list is based on the generic list(s) it shall state:
 the faults taken from the generic list(s) to be included;
 any other relevant faults to be included but not given in the generic list (e. g. common mode faults);
 the faults taken from the generic list(s) which may be excluded and can meet at least the criteria given in the
generic list(s) [see EN 954-1:1996 (ISO 13849-1:1999), 7.2];
and, exceptionally
 any other relevant faults, from the generic list but not permitted for exclusion by the generic list(s), together
with a justification and a rationale for its exclusion [see EN 954-1:1996 (ISO 13849-1:1999), 7.2].
Where this list is not based on the generic list(s) the designer shall give the rationale for fault exclusions.
3.4 Validation plan
The validation plan shall identify and describe the requirements for carrying out the validation process of the
specified safety functions and their categories.
The validation plan shall also identify the means to be employed to validate the specified safety functions and
categories. It shall set out, where appropriate:
a) the identity of the specification documents;
b) the operational and environmental conditions;
c) the basic safety principles (see A.2, B.2, C.2 and D.2);
d) the well-tried safety principles (see A.3, B.3, C.3 and D.3);
e) the well-tried components (see A.4 and D.4);
f) the fault assumptions and fault exclusions to be considered e. g. from the informative fault lists in A.5, B.5, C.5
and D.5;
g) the analyses and tests to be applied.

Safety-related parts which have previously been validated to the same specification need only a reference to that
previous validation.
3.5 Information for validation
The information required for validation will vary with the technology used, the category(ies) to be demonstrated, the
design rationale of the system and the contribution of the safety-related parts of control systems to the reduction of
the risk. Documents containing sufficient information from the list below shall be included in the validation process
to demonstrate the category(ies) and the safety function(s) of the safety-related parts which have been achieved:
a) specification(s) of the expected performance, of the safety functions and categories;
b) drawings and specifications, e. g. for mechanical, hydraulic and pneumatic parts, printed circuit boards,
assembled boards, internal wiring, enclosure, materials, mounting;
c) block diagram(s) with functional description of the blocks;
d) circuit diagram(s) including interfaces/connections;
e) functional description of the circuit diagram(s);
f) time sequence diagram(s) for switching components, signals relevant for safety;
g) description of the relevant characteristics of components previously validated;
h) for other safety-related parts (excluding those listed in g)) component lists with item designations, rated values,
tolerances, relevant operating stresses, type designation, failure rate data and component manufacturer and
any other data relevant for safety;
i) analysis of all relevant faults (see also 3.2) listed e. g. in A.5, B.5, C.5 and D.5, including the justification of any
excluded faults;
j) an analysis of the influence of processed materials;
Category specific information in accordance with Table 2. Where software is relevant to the safety function(s), the
software documentation shall include:
1) a specification which is clear and unambiguous and states the safety performance the software is required
to achieve, and
2) evidence that the software is designed to achieve the required safety performance, and
3) details of tests (in particular test reports) carried out to prove that the required safety performance is
achieved.
