Introduction to IEC 61508 - Two Key Fundamental Concepts

Подробнее о видео

We want our system to work. We're going to do everything we can to make it work properly. If it doesn't work, we want it to fail in a predictable and hopefully safe manner. If the failure modes are predictable, we can design the equipment to be fail safe. That's the whole thing. The IEC 61508 standard was created to achieve this goal.

There are two key fundamental concepts:

• Perform the intended function correctly - fundamental reliability Engineering
• Fail in a predictable manner - fundamental safety engineering

This clip is part of our FSE 211 - IEC 61508 - Functional Safety for Design & Development (Electrical, Mechanical, Software) self-paced online training course. This course provides an overview of IEC 61508, the functional safety lifecycle, and how to design/develop products and systems that meet 61508 requirements. It guides the product design/development team through a 61508-compliant development process which has proven to bring better products to market, at reduced cost, and with shorter time-to-market.
