BASIC CONCEPT
The SIL2 Process CPU, SIL2 function module, and the modules which have the SIL2 mode obtained the safety approvals
(IEC61511: 2015 SIL2 and IEC61508: 2010 SIL2).
Use the SIL2 Process CPU with the SIL2 function module as a pair. Programs for safety control and for standard control can
be executed simultaneously in one system. These products can be used to construct a safety function for general industrial
machinery.
Use the SIL2 Process CPU with the redundant function module as a pair to configure a redundant system.
Mount the modules on the slots from the CPU slot to slot number 1 in the order of the SIL2 Process CPU, SIL2 function
module, and redundant function module.
The mounting positions and order are as described above. They cannot be changed.
I/O modules and intelligent function modules set to SIL2 mode are mounted to the intelligent device station (remote head
module) on CC-Link IE Field Network.
