GB/T 16855.1-2018 Safety of machinery—Safety-related parts of control systems—Part 1:General principles for design
Basic Information
Scope
This part of GB/T 16855 specifies the safety requirements and guidelines for the design and integration of safety-related parts (SRP/CS), including software design, in control systems. It defines the characteristics of these SRP/CS parts, including the performance levels required to implement safety functions. This part applies to all types of SRP/CS on machinery with high requirements and continuous modes, regardless of the technology or energy used (electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, etc.). This part does not specify safety functions or performance levels for special applications. This part provides specific requirements for SRP/CS using programmable electronic systems. This part does not give specific design requirements for SRP/CS products, but principles such as categories or performance levels can be adopted.
