Acronym/ Ab-breviation

Designation Description

HFT Hardware Fault Tolerance The hardware fault tolerance of the device.This is the capability of a functional unit to continue the execution of the demanded function in case of faults or deviations.

MTBF Mean Time Between Failures This is the mean time period between two failures.

MTTR Mean Time To Repair This is the mean time period between the occurrence of a failure in a device or system and its repair.

PFD Probability of Failure on Demand This is the likelihood of dangerous safety function failures occurring on demand.

PFDav Average Probability of Failure on Demand

This is the average likelihood of dangerous safety function failures occurring on demand.

SIL Safety Integrity Level Safety Integrity LevelThe international standard IEC 61508 specifies four discrete Safety Integrity Levels (SIL 1 to SIL 4). Each level corresponds to a specific probability range regarding the failure of a safety function. The higher the Safety Integrity Level of the safety-related systems, the lower the likelihood of non-execution of the demanded safety functions.

SFF Safe Failure Fraction The fraction of non-hazardous failures, i.e. the fraction of failures without the potential to set the safety-related system to a dangerous or impermissible state.

TI Test interval between life testing of the safety function

Time interval between the functional tests of the safety function.

XooY "X out of Y" Voting (e.g. 2oo3) Classification and description of the safety-related system regarding redundancy and the selection procedure used."Y“ indicates how often the safety function is carried out (redundancy)."X“ determines how many channels must work properly.Example (pressure measurement): 1oo2 architecture. When one out of two pressure sensors reaches a defined limit value, a safety-related system decides, that the pressure limit has to be considered as exceeded. In a system with a 1oo1 architecture only one pressure sensor exists.

6 Determination of the Safety Integrity Level (SIL)

The reachable Safety Integrity Level depends on the following safety-related characteristics:

• Average probability of failure on demand (PFDav)• Hardware fault tolerance (HFT) • Safe failure fraction (SFF).

The specific safety-related characteristics for the transmitter as a part of the safety function are detailed in chapter"Safety-related characteristics".

The following table shows the dependence of the Safety Integrity Level (SIL) on the average probability of failure ondemand (PFDav). The "Low demand mode" is considered, i.e. the maximum demand rate on the safety-related sys-tem is once per year.

The sensor, the logic unit and the final control element form together a safety-related system which carries out asafety function. The average probability of failure on demand (PFDav) is usually distributed over the subsystems(sensor, logic unit and final control element) as seen in the illustration below.

IMPORTANTThis documentation applies to the transmitter 265xx as a part of a safety function.The following table shows the reachable Safety Integrity Level (SIL) of the entire safety-related system for systemsof type B, depending on the safe failure fraction (SFF) and the hardware fault tolerance (HFT). Systems of type Bare e.g. sensors with complex components like microprocessors (see also IEC61508, Part 2).

1) Acc. to IEC 61511-1, Part 11.4.3, the hardware fault tolerance (HFT) of sensors and final control elements with complex com-ponents can be decreased by one (value in brackets), if the following requirements are met:

– The device is proven-in-field.

– The user can only configure process-related parameters like the measuring range, signal direction in case of fault, etc.

– The device configuration level is access-protected, e.g. by jumper or password (here: code number or key combination).

– The function has a required Safety Integrity Level (SIL) less than 4.

The transmitter meets all requirements.

e.g. alarm behavior, max. alarm, operating mode, etc.3) Hand-held terminal for setting all parameters, e.g. alarm behavior, max. alarm, operating mode, etc.

The transmitter 2000T / 2600T produces an analog signal (4...20 mA) proportional with the differential pressure orgauge pressure / absolute pressure. This analog signal is fed to a subsequent logic unit, e.g. a PLC or limit trans-mitter, and monitored for violation of a defined maximum value. The logic unit must be capable of recognizing HIalarms (adjustable between 21 and 22.5 mA) and LO alarms (3.6 mA) in order to allow for malfunction detection.

11 Settings

11.1 Alarm behavior and current output

In case of a malfunction the current is set to the selected value. The settings can be made via the ABB user interfaceDSV401 (SMART VISION) or via a hand-held terminal.

NOTICECheck the safety function upon entry of all parameters. The transmitter allows to simulate the signal current inde-pendently of the measured pressure by using the "Simulation" and "Simulate current" parameters. (These parame-ters are accessible via DSV401 (SMART VISION) or via the HART hand-held terminal.

11.2 Locking/Unlocking

WARNINGAny changes to the measuring system and its settings after commissioning may impair the safety function. For thisreason it is strongly recommended to disable local transmitter control via the local keys after having entered allparameters and after having checked the safety function. This is to protect your settings against unwanted orunauthorized modification. A lock activated via the local keys can only be deactivated by using the keys again.

Management summary

This report summarizes the results of the hardware assessment with prior-use consideration

according to IEC 61508 / IEC 61511 carried out on the pressure transmitter 2600T / 2000T

Series with 4..20 mA output and software version V0.24. Table 1 gives an overview of the

different types that belong to the considered pressure transmitter 2600T / 2000T Series.

The hardware assessment consists of a Failure Modes, Effects and Diagnostics Analysis

(FMEDA). A FMEDA is one of the steps taken to achieve functional safety assessment of a

device per IEC 61508. From the FMEDA, failure rates are determined and consequently the

Safe Failure Fraction (SFF) is calculated for the device. For full assessment purposes all

requirements of IEC 61508 must be considered.

For safety applications only the 4..20 mA output was considered. All other possible output

variants or electronics are not covered by this report. The different devices can be equipped

with or without display.

The failure rates used in this analysis are the basic failure rates from the Siemens standard

SN 29500.

According to table 2 of IEC 61508-1 the average PFD for systems operating in low demand

mode has to be 10-3

to < 10-2

for SIL 2 safety functions. A generally accepted distribution of

PFDAVG values of a SIF over the sensor part, logic solver part, and final element part assumes

that 35% of the total SIF PFDAVG value is caused by the sensor part. For a SIL 2 application the

total PFDAVG value of the SIF should be smaller than 1,00E-02, hence the maximum allowable

PFDAVG value for the sensor part would then be 3,50E-03.

The pressure transmitter 2600T / 2000T Series with 4..20 mA output is considered to be a Type

B1 component with a hardware fault tolerance of 0.

Type B components with a SFF of 60% to < 90% must have a hardware fault tolerance of 1

according to table 3 of IEC 61508-2 for SIL 2 (sub-) systems.

As the pressure transmitter 2600T / 2000T Series with 4..20 mA output is supposed to be a

proven-in-use device, an assessment of the hardware with additional prior-use demonstration

for the device and its software was carried out. The prior-use investigation was based on field

return data collected and analyzed by ABB Automation Products GmbH. This data cannot cover

the process connection. The prior-use justification for the process connection still needs to be

done by the end-user.

According to the requirements of IEC 61511-1 First Edition 2003-01 section 11.4.4 and the

assessment described in section 5.1 the Type B pressure transmitter 2600T / 2000T Series with

a hardware fault tolerance of 0 and a SFF of 60% to < 90% is considered to be suitable for use

in SIL 2 safety functions The decision on the usage of prior-use devices, however, is always

with the end-user.

Failure rates that are assigned to the various failure modes of the sensor part of the pressure

transmitter 2600T / 2000T Series were obtained from field failure data using only operational

hours from the warranty period of operation. Confidence Interval calculations were done using a

chi-square distribution and an upper limit failure rate based on a 70% confidence factor per

IEC 61508. The failure rate results were compared with industry databases [N6] and found to be

within a reasonable range considering the much higher amount of operational hours.

Assuming that a connected logic solver can detect both over-range (fail high) and under-range

(fail low), high and low failures can be classified as safe detected failures or dangerous detected

failures depending on whether the pressure transmitter 2600T / 2000T Series with 4..20 mA

output is used in an application for “low level monitoring”, “high level monitoring” or “range

monitoring”. For these applications the following tables show how the above stated

requirements are fulfilled.

Type B component: “Complex” component (using micro controllers or programmable logic); for details

see 7.4.3.1.3 of IEC 61508-2.

The boxes marked in yellow ( ) mean that the calculated PFDAVG values are within the

allowed range for SIL 2 according to table 2 of IEC 61508-1 but do not fulfill the requirement to

not claim more than 35% of this range, i.e. to be better than or equal to 3,50E-03. The boxes

marked in green ( ) mean that the calculated PFDAVG values are within the allowed range for

SIL 2 according to table 2 of IEC 61508-1 and table 3.1 of ANSI/ISA–84.01–1996 and do fulfill

the requirement to not claim more than 35% of this range, i.e. to be better than or equal to

3,50E-03. The boxes marked in red ( ) mean that the calculated PFDAVG values do not fulfill

the requirement for SIL 2 according to table 2 of IEC 61508-1.

The functional assessment has shown that transmitters of the pressure transmitter

2600T / 2000T Series with 4..20 mA output have a PFDAVG within the allowed range for

SIL 2 according to table 2 of IEC 61508-1 and table 3.1 of ANSI/ISA–84.01–1996 and a Safe

Failure Fraction (SFF) of more than 69%. Based on the verification of "prior use" they can

be used as a single device for SIL2 Safety Functions in terms of IEC 61511-1 First Edition

2003-01.

A user of the pressure transmitter 2600T / 2000T Series with 4..20 mA output can utilize these

failure rates along with the failure rates for an impulse line, when required, in a probabilistic

model of a safety instrumented function (SIF) to determine suitability in part for safety

instrumented system (SIS) usage in a particular safety integrity level (SIL). A full table of failure

rates for different operating conditions is presented in section 5.2 to 5.6 along with all

assumptions.

It is important to realize that the “don’t care” failures and the “annunciation” failures are included

in the “safe undetected” failure category according to IEC 61508. Note that these failures on its

own will not affect system reliability or safety, and should not be included in spurious trip

calculations.
