It demands a safety architecture that can tolerate single faults, provide diagnostic coverage, and support a defensible safety case. In this webinar, we explore a practical dual-channel STO architecture that prevents torque-producing power from reaching the motor while meeting the architectural requirements of IEC 61800-5-2 and ISO 13849. We then examine how fault exclusion can be applied to isolation barriers, including insulation coordination, thermal limitation, and the system-level evidence needed to justify the exclusion and simplify STO safety analysis.\n\n\n\nAttendees will:\n\n[ul][li][strong]Design SIL 3 / PL e STO architectures[/strong] using dual-channel shutdown paths and diagnostics to ensure a single fault does not compromise the safety function.[/li][li][strong]Understand when fault exclusion can be claimed[/strong] for isolation barriers and the two conditions required: proper insulation coordination and containment of internal faults.
