Abstract

Nowadays a lot of control systems are based on safety PLC (safety programmable logic controllers). The most of these PLC´s are certified for SIL3 application (Safety integrity level 3). When components of this safety PLC are not used right then resulting SIL is lower. But when more components are used for realization of safety function properly with application diagnostics, then resulting SIL of SF (safety function) can be higher than SIL of used components. This paper deals with possibilities of various SRCS architectures with application diagnostics to reach required SIL.
