Safety Information<br />

Connecting the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> to the SIS Logic Solver<br />

Connecting the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> to<br />

When connecting the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> to the SIS logic solver follow these guidelines:<br />

General Requirements<br />

The <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> is connected to the safety rated logic solver which is<br />

actively performing the safety function. Connections must be made per<br />

the instructions supplied by the safety rated logic solver.<br />

The output rating of the I/O module must meet or exceed the electrical<br />

specifications of the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> as referenced in ES727 ( “Hazardous<br />

Location Installation” on page 65).<br />

The following general requirements for the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> must be adhered to:<br />

The system’s response time must be less than process safety time. The<br />

<strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> switches to its fail safe state in less than 100 ms. Response<br />

time is actuator dependent.<br />

You must add the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> response time to actuator/valve response<br />

to get overall response time<br />

All SIS components including the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> must be operational before<br />

process start-up. The internal diagnostic test that monitors the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong><br />

<strong>ESD</strong> for faults has a 1 hour test interval. This test does not partial stroke<br />

the valve.<br />

In order to use the PST as an automatic diagnostic tool the PST must be<br />

scheduled (using ValVue <strong>ESD</strong>) to run at least once per month or ten<br />

times within the expected hazard demand interval whichever comes first.<br />

Detailed failure rate data is specified in the FMEDA report available from<br />

the factory.<br />

You must verify that the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> is suitable for use in safety<br />

applications by confirming the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong>’s nameplate is properly<br />

marked.<br />

Personnel performing maintenance and testing on the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> must<br />

be qualified to do so.<br />

Results from the PST and proof tests must be recorded and reviewed<br />

periodically.<br />

The useful life of the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> is discussed in the Failure Modes,<br />

Effects and Diagnostic Analysis Report for the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong>.<br />
