10.2 General information
Below is a list of standards and guidelines for safety technology.
● EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
This guideline defines basic protection measures for safety technology.
● EN ISO 12100
Safety of machinery, basic terminology, general principles for design
● EN 60204-1:2006
Safety of machinery - Electrical equipment of machines - Part 1: Electrical equipment of
machinery - General requirements
● IEC 61508
Functional reliability of electrical and electronic systems
This standard defines "safety integrity levels" (SIL), which not only describe a certain
degree of integrity with regard to safety-oriented software but also defined, quantitative
error probability ranges with regard to the hardware.
● IEC 61800-5-2
Adjustable-speed electrical power drive systems
Part 5-2: Safety requirements - Functional
Note
Certifications
In conjunction with certified components, the safety functions of the SINAMICS S120 drive
system fulfill the following requirements:
• Safety integrity level 2 (SIL 2) according to IEC 61508.
• Category 3 according to DIN EN ISO 13849-1
• Performance level (PL) d according to DIN EN ISO 13849-1
In addition, the SINAMICS S120 safety functions are normally certified by independent
