Series Of Standards Iec 61508 (Vde 0803) - Siemens SINAMICS G120 Function Manual

EN 62061 does not include information about non-electric systems. The standard provides
detailed information on implementing safety-related electrical, electronic, and programmable
electronic control systems. DIN EN ISO 13849-1 must be applied for non-electric systems.
Note
Function examples
Details of simple sub-systems that have been implemented and integrated are now available
as "functional examples".
Note
EN 62061 and machinery directive
IEC 62061 has been ratified as EN 62061 in Europe and harmonized as part of the
Machinery Directive.

Series of standards IEC 61508 (VDE 0803)

This series of standards describes the current state of the art.
IEC 61508 is not harmonized in line with any EU directives, which means that an automatic
presumption of conformity for fulfilling the protective requirements of a directive is not
implied. The manufacturer of a safety-related product, however, can also use IEC 61508 to
fulfill basic requirements of European directives in accordance with the latest conceptual
design, for example, in the following cases:
● If no harmonized standard exists for the application in question. In this particular case, the
● A harmonized European standard (e.g. EN 62061, EN ISO 13849, EN 60204-1)
IEC 61508 covers all the aspects that must be taken into account when E/E/PES systems
(electrical, electronic, and programmable electronic system) are used in order to execute
safety functions and/or to ensure the appropriate level of functional safety. Other hazards
(e.g. electric shock) are not part of the standard, similar to DIN ISO 13849.
IEC 61508 has recently been declared the "International Basic Safety Publication", which
makes it a framework for other sector-specific standards (e.g. EN 62061). As a result, this
standard is now accepted worldwide, particularly in North America and in the automotive
industry. Today, many regulatory bodies already stipulate it (e.g. as a basis for NRTL listing).
Another recent development with respect to IEC 61508 is its system approach, which
extends the technical requirements to include the entire safety installation from the sensor to
the actuator, the quantification of the probability of hazardous failure due to random
hardware failures, and the creation of documentation covering all phases of the safety-
related lifecycle of the E/E/PES.

references IEC 61508. This ensures that the appropriate requirements of the directives
are fulfilled ("standard that is also applicable"). When manufacturers apply IEC 61508
properly and responsibly in accordance with this reference, they can use the presumption
of conformity of the referencing standard.
