<strong>SAFETY</strong> <strong>MANUAL</strong><br />

3.2.7 NFPA 86 Requirements<br />

The 8000 system is certified to be used in NFPA 85 <strong>com</strong>pliant systems.<br />

The systems should be integrated in accordance with NFPA 85. In particular the<br />

following shall be applied.<br />

• The supplier of the application software for the programmable controller shall<br />

provide the end user and the authority having jurisdiction with the<br />

documentation needed to verify that all related safety devices and safety logic<br />

are functional before the programmable controller is placed in operation.<br />

• In the event of a power failure, the programmable controller (hardware and<br />

software) shall not prevent the system from reverting to a safe default<br />

condition. A safe condition shall be maintained upon the restoration of power.<br />

• The control system shall have a separate manual emergency witch,<br />

independent of the programmable controller, that initiates a safe shutdown.<br />

• Any changes to hardware or software shall be documented, approved, and<br />

maintained in a file on the site.<br />

• System operation shall be tested and verified for <strong>com</strong>pliance with this standard<br />

and the original design criteria whenever the programmable controller is<br />

replaced, repaired, or updated.<br />

• Whenever application software that contains safety logic or detection logic is<br />

modified, system operation shall be verified for <strong>com</strong>pliance with this standard<br />

and the original design criteria.<br />

• The NFPA certification is only applicable where the system is applied in<br />

accordance with the safety manual and NFPA86 requirements.<br />

• A programmable controller not listed for <strong>com</strong>bustion safety service shall be<br />

permitted to monitor safety interlocks, or to provide burner control functions,<br />

provided that its use <strong>com</strong>plies with both of the following:<br />

(1) The programmable controller shall not interfere with or prevent the<br />

operation of the safety interlocks.<br />

(2) Only isolated programmable controller contacts (not directly connected to a<br />

power source) shall be permitted to be wired in series with the safety interlocks<br />

to permit burner control functions.<br />
