The MOSAIC is built to the following safety levels: SIL 3, SILCL 3, PL e, Cat. 4, Type 4
in accordance with the applicable standards. However, the definitive SIL and PL of the
application will depend on the number of safety components, their parameters and
the connections that are made, as per the risk analysis.
Read the "Applicable Standards" section carefully.
Perform an in-depth risk analysis to determine the appropriate safety level for your
specific application, on the basis of all the applicable standards.
Programming/configuration of the Mosaic is the sole responsibility of the installer or
user.
The device must be programmed/configured in accordance with the application-
specific risk analysis and all the applicable standards.
Once you have programmed/configured and installed the Mosaic and all the relative
devices, run a complete application safety test (see "TESTING the system", page 57).
Always test the complete system whenever new safety components are added (see
the "TESTING the system" section, page 57).
ReeR is not responsible for these operations or any risks in connection therewith.
Reference should be made to the handbooks and the relative product and/or
application standards to ensure correct use of devices connected to the Mosaic within
the specific application.
The ambient temperature in the place where the system is installed must be
compatible with the operating temperature parameters stated on the product label
and in the specifications.
For all matters concerning safety, if necessary, contact your country's competent
safety authorities or the competent trade association.
