    • The specifications according to the operating instructions manual, particularly the current load on the output circuits, must be kept within the specified limits • To avoid a fusing of the relay contacts, these must be protected by an external fuse that triggers at 60 % of the max. contact current load. • When used as dry run protection, buildup on the vibrating system should be avoided (probably shorter proof test intervals will be necessary) • The instructions in chapter "Safety-related characteristics", para- graph "Supplementary information" must be noted • All parts of the measuring chain must correspond to the planned "Safety Integrity Level (SIL)" SITRANS LVL200H - Safety Manual...

    MTTR = 8 h Configuration of the pro- A connected control and processing unit must have the following cessing unit properties: • The failure signals of the measuring system are judged according to the idle current principle • "fail low" and "fail high" signals are interpreted as a failure, where- upon the safe state must be taken on If this is not the case, the respective percentages of the failure rates must be assigned to the dangerous failures and the values stated in chapter Safety-related characteristics“ redetermined! Multiple channel archi- Due to the systematic capability SC3, this instrument can also be tecture used in multiple channel systems up to SIL3, also with a homogene- ously redundant configuration. SITRANS LVL200H - Safety Manual...
  • Page 8 The safety-related characteristics must be calculated especially for the selected structure of the measuring chain using the stated failure rates. In doing this, a suitable Common Cause Factor (CCF) must be considered (see IEC 61508-6, appendix D). SITRANS LVL200H - Safety Manual...
  • Page 9: Setup

    Adjustment instructions Adjustment elements The adjustment elements must be set according to the specified safety function: • Slide switch for changeover of the mode (min./max.) • Slide switch for changeover of the sensitivity The function of the adjustment elements is described in the operating instructions manual. During adjustment process, the safety function must be considered Please note! as unreliable! If necessary, you must take other measures to maintain the safety function. With regard to the switch on/swich off delay it must be ensured that the sum of all switching delays from the transducer to the actuator is adapted to the process safety time! The instrument must be protected against inadvertent or unauthorized adjustment! SITRANS LVL200H - Safety Manual...

    This condition is maintained for at least 1 second. If an error is no longer detected, the safety function is performed correctly again. The diagnosis interval is specified in chapter "Safety-related charac- teristics". If failures are detected, the entire measuring system must be shut down and the process held in a safe state by other measures. The manufacturer must be informed of the occurrence of a dangerous undetected failure (incl. fault description). Repair The procedure is described in the operating instructions manual. Note Electronics exchange the instructions for setup. SITRANS LVL200H - Safety Manual...
  • Page 11: Proof Test

    7.2 Test 1: Without filling or dismounting the sensor • Instrument in installed condition Conditions • Output signal corresponds to the level (covered or uncovered vibrating element) • The NO contacts of the two relays connected in series must be checked separately! Procedure 1. Carry out a restart (switch the instrument off and then on again) 2. Push the min./max. switch Expected result to 1: Output signal corresponds to the level to 2: Output signal changes status Proof Test Coverage See Safety-related characteristics SITRANS LVL200H - Safety Manual...
  • Page 12: Test 2: With Filling Or Dismounting Of The Sensor

    Alternative 2: the instrument is dismounted; the condition "Vibrat- ing element uncovered"/"Vibrating element covered" can be changed by dipping the instrument into the original medium • Output signal corresponds to the level (covered or uncovered vibrating element) • The NO contacts of the two relays connected in series must be checked separately! Procedure 1. Push the min./max. switch 2. Filling or emptying up to the switching point or immersion into the original medium Expected result to 1: Output signal changes status to 2: Output signal corresponds to the modified level Proof Test Coverage See Safety-related characteristics SITRANS LVL200H - Safety Manual...
