Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document outlines the specifications and safety features of the Series MX SAFEMAX 3/2-way quick exhaust safety valves, which comply with the Machinery Directive (MD) 2006/42/EC and ISO 13849-1 standards. These valves are designed to ensure machine safety by integrating a sensor that detects spool position and ensures rapid system discharge in emergencies.
Specifications
  • Construction: Modular, compact, spool-type.
  • Materials: Aluminium body, POM covering, stainless steel spool, and other durable materials.
  • Operating Temperature: -5°C to 60°C.
  • Operating Pressure: Internal servo-pilot (3.5 to 10 bar), external servo-pilot (0.5 to 10 bar).
  • Nominal Flow: Single version (1→2 = 5600 Nl/min, 2→3 = 5000 Nl/min), Double version (1→2 = 4100 Nl/min, 2→3 = 5000 Nl/min).
  • Fluid: Filtered air according to ISO 8573-1.
Benefits
  • Compliance with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
  • Easy integration with Series MX2 FRL Units.
  • Solutions to achieve up to Performance Level E.
Safety Standards and Performance Levels
The valves are classified into different categories based on their safety performance:
  • Single Channel Valve: Category 2, Performance Level D.
  • Double Channel Valve: Category 4, Performance Level E.
The document explains the calculation of Performance Levels (PL) using factors like Mean Time To Dangerous Failure (MTTFd), Diagnostic Coverage (DC), and Common Cause Failure (CCF).
Risk Assessment and Safety Function Design
The document emphasizes the importance of risk analysis and the design of safety functions according to EN ISO 12100. It outlines a structured procedure for achieving safety, including:
  • Risk analysis to determine the required Performance Level (PLr).
  • Design and implementation of safety functions.
  • Verification and validation of the achieved Performance Level.

CALCULATION OF THE REQUIRED PERFORMANCE LEVEL The Performance Level (PL) indicates the degree of danger that the identified safety function must satisfy in order to minimize the risk. The PL required (PLr) by the safety function can be calculated through a risk analysis tree graph which takes into consideration the severity of the damage (S), the frequency of exposure (F) and the possibility (P) that the user can avoid the risk. S = Severity of the damage S1 = slight injury S2 = serious injury F = Frequency and / or time of exposure to the danger F1 : rare to infrequent F2 : frequent or continuous...
