Technical data 2.5.4.4.3 Parameters useful for the PL (EN ISO 13849- 1:2008) and SIL (EN 62061:2005) calculation Note 1 The safety devices (Emergency Stop Push-button, Enebling Device, State Selector) on board of H3 handheld terminal are directly hardware-connected to the output connector pins.
Technical data Note 2 The Stop Push-button and Enabling Device on board of H3 are compliant with IEC60947-5-1. Considering that and referring to paragraph D.5.3 (table D.8) of ISO 13849-2, it is not possible to relate dangerous failures to these components and, so, the values of b10d, MTTFd and PFHd for the Stop Push-button and Enabling Device does not have any relevance (from a mathematical point of view: b10d, MTTFd = infinite and PFHd = 0).
