Introducing SISTEMA

SISTEMA is a free software utility that helps developers and designers of safety-related parts of control systems (SRP/CS) perform assessments in accordance with ISO13849-1 “Safety of machinery -- Safety-related parts of control systems -- Part 1: General principles for design.”

SISTEMA supports a variety of assessment methods for SRP/CS that are modeled on the configuration of safety-related components, based on a specified architecture.
In particular, performance level (PL) is assessed and SRP/CS is validated through automatic calculation, based on reliability data related to the mean time to dangerous failure (MTTFD) of the safety components that make up the modeled SRP/CS, the diagnostic coverage (DC) that indicates the failure diagnosis rate, and the common cause failure (CCF) in multi-channel systems.
It is also possible to output the result of validation as an assessment report, which can be used as a technical report for the safety assessment of machinery and equipment.

IDEC SISTEMA Library

IDEC provides the machine safety reliability data that is required to help you calculate the PL of your equipment, in the form of parameter lists (PDF files) for each product model and a SISTEMA library.
 
The library is updated from time to time, so please be sure to check the version on a regular basis.
