18 Chapter 2 Application Guidelines Emergency Shutdown Systems The safe state of the plant should be a de-energized or low (0) state. All power supplies should be monitored for proper operation. Burner Management Systems The safe state of the plant is a de-energized or low (0) state. When a safety system is required to conform to the EN 50156 standard for electrical equipment for furnaces, PES throughput time should ensure that a safe shutdown can be performed within one second after a problem in the process is detected. Fire and Gas Systems Fire and gas applications should operate continuously to provide protection. The following industry guidelines apply: • If inputs and outputs are energized to mitigate a problem, a PES system should detect and alarm open and short circuits in the wiring between the PES and the field devices. • An entire PES system should have redundant power supplies. Also, the power supplies that are required to activate critical outputs and read safety-critical inputs should be redundant. All power supplies should be monitored for proper operation. • De-energized outputs may be used for normal operation. To initiate action to mitigate a problem, the outputs are energized. This type of system shall monitor the critical output circuits to ensure that they are properly connected to the end devices. Safety Considerations Guide for Triconex General Purpose v2 Systems

<strong>Safety</strong>-Critical Modules<br />

It is recommended that only the following modules be used <strong>for</strong> safety-critical applications:<br />

• Main Processor Module<br />

• Communication Module (only when using protocols defined <strong>for</strong> safety-critical<br />

applications)<br />

• Analog Input Module<br />

• Analog Input/Digital Input Module<br />

• Analog Output Modules<br />

• Digital Input Modules<br />

• Digital Output Modules<br />

• Pulse Input Module<br />

The Solid-State Relay Output Module is recommended <strong>for</strong> non-safety-critical points only.<br />
