Functional safety seminars
June 1st 2009 End users, designers and OEMs can
face confusion when confronted with
a multitude of safety protocols and
legislation that sometimes seem to
have different requirements or even
appear to contradict each other.
Rockwell Automation is holding
Functional Safety Seminars to clarify
the current standards. The seminars
are designed to give practical advice
on changes in relevant EU Directives
and legislation, application guidance,
use of evaluation tools to simplify the
use of ISO13849 and an opportunity
to see and experience (via
workshops) associated safety systems
and products.
The concept of functional safety
will change the behaviour of users
and designers of automation systems,
and why the publication of ISO
13849 has led to growing interest in
performance levels and SILs (Safety
Integrity Levels).
The seminars will take place
throughout the UK in May and June.
The morning seminars will be
followed by a Connected
Components Exhibition and optional
focussed workshops. Register your
