1.5 Foreseeable misuse
The following examples of foreseeable misuse are among those not approved as
intended use:
–Use outdoors
–Use in non-industrial areas
–Use outside the limits of the product defined in the technical data
–Unauthorised modifications
–Use in combination with consumers where switching off can result in hazardous
movements or conditions
NOTICE
The use of manifold blocks, interlinking blocks and pneumatic interfaces that are
not specified is not permissible.
NOTICE
In the following cases, the use of the output module CPX-FVDA-P2 for formation of
safety circuits is not permissible:
• In a CPX terminal equipped with CPX-FEC or CPX-CEC
• In a CPX terminal with shut-off groups containing output modules other than
those permitted
• In a CPX terminal of variant P
• In a CPX terminal with a connected valve terminal which is equipped with valve
types other than the following: VTSA, MPA-S, MPA-F è Tab. 2 Permissible valve
types
•In a CPX terminal with a connected valve terminal where a proportional-pres-
sure regulator VPPM is located in switching groups with a safety shutdown
function
• In impermissible switching configurations è Description CPX-FVDA-P2-...
NOTICE
The output module does not contain any wearing parts. Repairs are not allowed
on the output module CPX-FVDA-P2. This invalidates the certification of the
output module. Professional replacement of the electronics module by the user is
permissible.
NOTICE
In the event of damage caused by unauthorised manipulation or any form other
than the intended use, the warranty is invalidated, and the manufacturer is not
liable for damages.
1.6 Attainable safety level
With the CPX-FVDA-P2, safety functions can be implemented up to:
–Safety integrity level SIL 3 in accordance with IEC 61508
–Performance Level e, Cat. 3 in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1
–SIL claim limit SIL CL 3 in accordance with EN 62061.
The attainable safety level of the overall safety device depends on the other
components used to implement the safety function.
To maintain the safety level:
–Test the functionality of the safety device at adequate intervals.
1.7 Failures due to a common cause (Common Cause Failure – CCF)
Common cause failures cause the loss of the safety function, since both channels
(P and M) in a dual-channel system fail simultaneously.
The following measures ensure that common cause failures are avoided:
–Comply with operating voltage limits
–Comply with temperature range
è Tab. 17 Further characteristic values
è Fig. 7
–Use a maximum of 2 output channels in a common safety pilot circuit
Additional measures for avoidance of common cause failures may result from the
application.
