2 ARCS Direct Acting Description
The ASCO ARCS (141 series) is designed for emergency shut down valves (ON/OFF vales) with various redundant
configurations (1oo2, 2oo2 & 2oo3) to meet both safety & availability.
The ASCO ARCS (141 series) 2oo3 redundant solenoid valve piloting system combines the advantages of both
1oo2 & 2oo2 systems to achieve a high level of process safety and reliability.
ARCS (141 series) are an electro-mechanical and pneumatic system consisting of solenoid operated valves and
push pull type manually operated spool valves. The valves are interconnected to allow different architectures for the
control of pneumatically actuated block valves. It provides diagnostic components to verify the state of the devices
as well as enabling online testing of the devices. These components are visual indicator or pressure gauges and
pressure switches monitoring the pneumatic pressures at critical points of the ARCS assembly.

3 Designing a Safety Instrumented Function using an ASCO
ARCS
3.1 Safety Function
When de-energized, the ASCO ARCS (141 series) moves to its fail-safe position. Depending on the version
specified, 1oo2, 2oo2, 2oo3 the ARCS will supply air and vent air depending on the piping of the installation.
As defined in IEC 61508, the ARCS is intended to be a part of the final element subsystem and the designer must
verify the achieved SIL level of the designed function.
3.2 Environmental limits
The designer of a SIF must check that the product is rated for use within the expected environmental
limits.
Temperature: The ARCS shall be mounted either plate or inside enclosure. The temperature does not exceed the
specified temperature limits for standard or low temperature mentioned in catalogues.
3.3 Application limits
The application limits of an ASCO ARCS (141 series) are specified in the user manual. I&M Number 536985 It is
especially important that the designer checks for material compatibility considering on-site chemical contaminants
and air supply conditions. If the ARCS is used outside of the application limits or with incompatible materials, the
reliability data provided becomes invalid.
3.4 Design Verification
A detailed Failure Mode, Effects, and Diagnostics Analysis (FMEDA) report is available from ASCO. This report
details all failure rates and failure modes as well as the expected lifetime.
The achieved Safety Integrity Level (SIL) of an entire Safety Instrumented Function (SIF) design must be verified
by the designer via a calculation of PFDavg considering redundant architectures, proof test interval, proof test
effectiveness, any automatic diagnostics, average repair time and the specific failure rates of all products included
in the SIF. Each subsystem must be checked to assure compliance with minimum hardware fault tolerance (HFT)
requirements. The Exida exSILentia® tool is recommended for this purpose as it contains accurate models for the
ARCS and its failure rates.
When using an ASCO ARCS (141 series) in a redundant configuration, a common cause factor of 5% should be
included in safety integrity calculations.
The failure rate data listed in the FMEDA report is only valid for the useful lifetime of an ASCO Solenoid.
The failure rates will increase sometime after this time period. Reliability calculations based on the data
listed in the FMEDA report for mission times beyond the lifetime may yield results that are too optimistic,
i.e. the calculated Safety Integrity Level will not be achieved.
3.5 SIL Capability
3.5.1 Systematic Integrity

IM-IND-536661-Rev AA
Page 6
This product has met manufacturer design process requirements for Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 3. These are
intended to achieve sufficient integrity against systematic errors of design by the manufacturer. A Safety
Instrumented Function (SIF) designed with this product must not be used at a SIL level higher than the statement
without “prior use” justification by end user or diverse technology redundancy in the design.
3.5.2 Random Integrity
The ARCS (141 series) is a Type A Device. Therefore, depending on redundant architecture, the design can
meet SIL 3 requirements @ HFT=1. the design can meet SIL 2 @ HFT = 0.
When the final element assembly consists of many components (ARCS, quick exhaust valve, actuator, isolation
valve, etc.) the SIL must be verified for the entire assembly using failure rates from all components. This analysis
must account for any hardware fault tolerance and architecture constraints.
3.5.3 Safety Parameters
For detailed failure rate information refer to the Failure Modes, Effects and Diagnostic Analysis Report for the
ARCS.
3.6 Connection of the ARCS to the SIS Logic-solver
The ARCS (141 series) is connected to the safety rated logic solver which is actively performing the safety function
as well as automatic diagnostics designed to diagnose potentially dangerous failures within the ARCS. The
isolating valves solenoid control power shall be supplied by the safety logic solver via the safety function output.
Connections must be made according the instructions supplied by the safety rated logic solver.
The output rating of the I/O module shall meet or exceed the electrical specifications of the valve solenoid. Refer
catalogue for detailed solenoid specifications.
If the safety rated logic solver output module provides line-integrity testing by pulse tests or other means, the
impedance range applicable for this test shall be within the ARCS solenoid impedance.
If connected to a passive input module (a module that provides only the switching but not the switching energy),
the external power supply shall meet all pertinent electrical safety requirements specified by the safety rated logic
solver (i.e. IEC 61010).
The input rating of the Digital Input module shall meet the electrical specifications of the pressure switch:
If the safety rated logic solver input module requires line-end devices for open wire / short circuit wire protection,
these devices shall be mounted at the terminal block of the ARCS according to the logic-solver manufacturer’s
instructions.
If the logic-solver input module provides line-integrity testing by pulse tests or other means the impedance range
applicable for this test shall be within the ARCS pressure switch impedance.
3.7 General Requirements
• The system’s response time shall be less than process safety time. The ARCS will switch between two
states in less than 105 ms.
• All SIS components including the ARCS must be operational before process start-up.
• The user shall verify that the ARCS is suitable for use in safety applications by confirming that the
ARCS nameplate is properly marked.
• Personnel performing maintenance and testing on the ARCS shall be competent to do so.
• The useful life of the ARCS is discussed in the Failure Modes, Effects and Diagnostic Analysis Report
for the ARCS.

If the logic solver responds to a safety demand, it de-energizes SOV1 and SOV2 and causes the inlet air supply
to be blocked off and venting the block valve actuator.
5.1.6 2oo2 with individual isolation and with Diagnostic
Figure 6 shows circuit diagram of 2oo2 with individual isolation and with diagnostic (safety state action). In this
condition, the ARCS is blocking the inlet air supply and venting the valve actuator (Normally closed operation).
This configuration is mostly used in availability applications since a loss of electrical or pneumatic energy of any
one valve also outlet will supply air to the actuator. V1 & V2 are solenoid operated valves. I1 & I2 are manual
operated isolation valves with LOTO protection. A & B are visual indicators, P1 and P2 are pressure switches.
Indicators will show green when air is available and will show red when air is not available at particular valve
zone. Pressure switches will give signal of each valve zone which is open or close.
Before switching to isolation mode, remove LOTO and lock pin from isolation valve and pull the knob downwards
and again put the lock pin and LOTO and make it secured. Corresponding SOV, visual indicator and pressure
switch are isolated from the main line. Corresponding Indicator will show red when isolation valve is activated.
Can do maintenance of SOV, Indicator and pressure switch without disturbing outlet air supply.
To put in normal mode, do the above-mentioned process as reverse.

5.2 Operator Interface Options
The ARCS (141 series) is available with various interface and visual indication options. These options provide
local indication and feedback for plant personnel. There are several constraints related to these options.
• Any operator interface shall be implemented in a manner that has a predictable effect on the ARCS and
does not interfere with its safety function.
• Field modifications shall not be made to the internal wiring or pneumatic connections of the ARCS.

5.3 ADT - Optional
ARCS (141 series) has redundant architecture which is sufficient to meet safety integrity level. However, ARCS
facilitate Automated diagnostic testing for individual solenoid valve in 2oo2 and 2oo3 configurations. Pressure or
Proximity switches shall be provided as optional for individual solenoid valves which facilitates online testing of
solenoid valves through safety systems or DCS.
In addition to the static detection of the system state and to enable the logic-solver to verify correct system state
transition, the sensor information is used to implement a safety-critical test of the ARCS function.
For functional testing, all solenoids are brought on-line depending on redundant configuration. Each solenoid is
then de-energized individually with pressure switch confirmation of successful venting. No bypass/isolation is
required for functional testing. This means that the system is sequenced through the truth table and the correct
assertion of these states is verified by reading the pressure switch transition. The safe state can be achieved at
any time during the function test by de-energizing the digital outputs on the safety rated logic solver.
The functional testing is performed to detect potential undetected dangerous component failure within the device
such as:
• SOV is stuck in energized position
• Pressure switch stuck in open or closed position
The position of the bypass / isolation valve is safety critical, are provided with LOTO protection which can be
secured with a lock. The bypass / isolation valve should be locked position at any state normal operation or
Bypass / isolation.
Any failure detected by the ADT shall be annunciated by the safety rated logic solver.
5.3.1 State Verification Test
The correct state of all valves shall be verified and compared against the commanded state. The state table in
section 5.1 of this manual can be used as a guide. This verification shall be performed periodically with a cycle
time of ½ of the process safety time or less.
If any illegal states are detected, they shall be immediately annunciated. These states are excluded by design
and the root cause for these faults cannot be determined or be contributed to a specific component. The ARCS
shall be repaired within 72 hours.
5.4 Repair and replacement
Repair procedures in I&M Number 536985 must be followed.
5.5 ASCO Notification
Any failures that are detected and that compromise functional safety should be reported to ASCO
Please contact ASCO Technical Support.
