Numerous approvals
Apart from the
certification in acc. with
IEC 61508 (SIL 3) that is
important for process
technology, the ESP4 PSR
safety relay has the
following additional
approvals:
• Approval as per the regulations of the
German Lloyd (GL), so that the relay
can also be used in shipbuilding and in
offshore systems
• Approval as per EN 50156-1 (safety
level 3) that allows its use in
combustion plants, steam generators,
waste heat boilers, rotary furnaces
and hot gas generators

IEC 61508 parts
As one of the first manufacturers, Phoenix Contact has
provided a comprehensive portfolio of safety relays certified in
accordance with IEC 61508 (SIL 3) which is being constantly
expanded. The IEC 61508 standard relevant for process
technology is based on four main pillars that help reduce the
residual risk:
• A complete documentation describing all product life cycle
phases
•
The special requirements for the QM system to avoid errors
• Determining and calculating safety-related reliability
specifications, which are used to determine the time of a
functional test
• The requirements regarding diagnostic measures to be
implemented for detecting and rectifying the errors that
could possibly occur.
