Functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems - Part 5: Examples of methods for the determination of safety integrity levels
1 Scope
1.1 This Part provides information on:
- the underlying concepts of risk and the relationship of risk to safety integrity (see Appendix A);
- a number of methods that will enable the safety integrity levels for the E/E/PE safety-related systems, other technology safety-related systems and external risk reduction facilities to be determined (see Appendixes B, C, D and E).
1.2 The method selected will depend upon the application sector and the specific circumstances under consideration. Appendixes B, C, D and E illustrate quantitative and qualitative approaches and have been simplified in order to illustrate the underlying principles. These appendixes have been included to illustrate the general principles of a number of methods but do not provide a definitive account. Those intending to apply the methods indicated in these appendixes shall consult the source material referenced.
Note: For more information on the approaches illustrated in Appendixes B, D and E, see references [4], [2] and [3] respectively in Appendix F. See also reference [5] in Appendix F for a description of an additional approach.
1.3 GB/T 20438.1, GB/T 20438.2, GB/T 20438.3 and GB/T 20438.4 are basic safety publications, although this status does not apply in the context of low complexity E/E/PE safety-related systems (see 3.4.4 of GB/T 20438.4-2006). As basic safety publications, they are intended for use by technical committees in the preparation of standards in accordance with the principles contained in IEC Guide 104 and ISO/IEC Guide 51. One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of basic safety publications in the preparation of its own publications. GB/T 20438 is also intended for use as a stand-alone standard.
1.4 Figure 1 shows the overall framework for GB/T 20438 and indicates the role that this Part plays in the achievement of functional safety for E/E/PE safety-related systems.
