<strong>SAFETY</strong> <strong>MANUAL</strong><br />
1. INTRODUCTION<br />
1.1 PURPOSE OF <strong>SAFETY</strong><br />
<strong>SAFETY</strong> <strong>MANUAL</strong><br />
The 8000 series TMR system has been designed and certified for use in safety<br />
related applications. To ensure that systems build upon these foundations, it is<br />
necessary to impose requirements on the way such systems are designed, built,<br />
tested, installed and <strong>com</strong>missioned, operated, maintained and de-<strong>com</strong>missioned.<br />
This Manual sets out the requirements to be met during the lifecycle stages of<br />
safety-related systems to ensure that the safety objectives of the safety system are<br />
achieved<br />
This Manual is intended primarily for system integrators. It is assumed that the<br />
reader has a thorough understanding of the intended application and can translate<br />
readily between the generic terms used within this Manual and the terminology<br />
specific to the integrator’s or project’s application area.<br />
The TMR system has been independently certified by the German certification<br />
authority Technischer Überwachungs-Verein (TÜV) to meet the requirements of<br />
IEC 61508 SIL 3, DIN V VDE 0801 Requirements Class 6 (AK6).<br />
The content of this Manual has been reviewed by TÜV and it represents the<br />
requirements that shall be fulfilled to achieve certifiable safety-related systems up<br />
to SIL 3 (AK6). Conditions and configurations that shall be adhered to if the system<br />
is to remain in <strong>com</strong>pliance with the requirements of SIL 3 or AK6 certification are<br />
clearly marked.<br />
The information contained in this Manual is intended for use by engineers and<br />
system integrators and is not intended to be a substitute for expertise or experience<br />
in safety-related systems. Requirements for quality systems, documentation and<br />
<strong>com</strong>petence are included within this document; these are requirements, and NOT<br />
replacements, for an operating <strong>com</strong>pany’s or integrator's quality systems,<br />
procedures and practices. The system integrator remains responsible for the<br />
generation of procedures and practices applicable to its business, and shall ensure<br />
that these are in accordance with the requirements defined herein. The application<br />
of such procedures and practices is also the responsibility of the system integrator,<br />
however, these shall be considered mandatory for systems for SIL 3 or AK5/6<br />
applications.<br />
