1.3Symbols Used
This document contains symbols for the identification of warning messages and
of informative messages.
Warning Messages
You will find warning messages, whenever dangers may arise from your actions.
It is mandatory that you observe these warning messages for your personal safety
and in order to avoid property damage.
The devices are safety components according to the machinery directive
2006/42/EC.
This isolated barrier is used for intrinsic safety applications.
The device transfers digital signals (SN/S1N proximity sensors or approved dry
contacts) from a hazardous area to a safe area.
Unlike an SN/S1N series proximity sensor, a mechanical contact requires a
10 k resistor to be placed across the contact in addition to a 1.5 k resistor in
series.
Lead breakage (LB) and short circuit (SC) conditions of the control circuit are
continuously monitored.
During an fault condition, the fault indication output energizes and outputs I and II
de-energize.
For safety applications up to SIL 3, output I must be used. For safety applications
up to SIL 2, output I and output II can be used.
The device is designed for mounting on a 35 mm DIN mounting rail according to
EN 60715.
KFD2-SH-Ex1, KHA6-SH-Ex1
The input controls 1 relay contact output with 3 NO contacts (1 output is in series
to the both output relays for the safety function), 1 relay contact output with
1 NO contact, and 1 passive transistor output (fault indication output).
KFD2-SH-Ex1.T
The input controls 1 active voltage output and 1 relay contact output with a
NO contact.
KFD2-SH-Ex1.T.OP
The input controls 1 active voltage output and 1 relay contact output with a
NO contact.
If there are two control loops, one for the standard operation and another one for
the functional safety, then usually the demand rate for the safety loop is assumed
to be less than once per year.
The relevant safety parameters to be verified are:
•the PFD
the T
•the SFF value (Safe Failure Fraction)
•the HFT architecture (Hardware Fault Tolerance)
value (average Probability of dangerous Failure on Demand) and
avg
value (proof test interval that has a direct impact on the PFD

3.1.2High Demand or Continuous Mode of Operation
If there is only one safety loop, which combines the standard operation and
safety-related operation, then usually the demand rate for this safety loop is
assumed to be higher than once per year.
The relevant safety parameters to be verified are:
•the PFH value (Probability of dangerous Failure per Hour)
•Fault reaction time of the safety system
•the SFF value (Safe Failure Fraction)
•the HFT architecture (Hardware Fault Tolerance)
3.1.3Safe Failure Fraction
The safe failure fraction describes the ratio of all safe failures and dangerous
detected failures to the total failure rate.
SFF = (
+ dd) / (s + dd + du)

avg
value)
A safe failure fraction as defined in IEC/EN 61508 is only relevant for elements or
(sub)systems in a complete safety loop. The device under consideration is
always part of a safety loop but is not regarded as a complete element or
subsystem.
For calculating the SIL of a safety loop it is necessary to evaluate the safe failure
fraction of elements, subsystems and the complete system, but not of a single
device.
Nevertheless the SFF of the device is given in this document for reference.
The following assumptions have been made during the FMEDA:
•The fault indication output which signals if the field circuits are broken or
shorted is not considered in the FMEDA and the calculations.
•For output I of the KFD2-SH-Ex1 and KHA6-SH-Ex1 devices, use the
3 redundant relay contacts to establish the necessary redundancy.
•Failure rate based on the Siemens standard SN29500.
•Failure rates are constant, wear is not considered.
•External power supply failure rates are not included.
•The safety-related device is considered to be of type A device with a hardware
fault tolerance of 0.
•Observe for the high demand mode the useful lifetime limitations of the output
relays.
•The device will be used under average industrial ambient conditions, which
are comparable with the classification "stationary mounted" in MIL-HDBK217F. Alternatively, the following ambient conditions are assumed:
•IEC/EN 60654-1 Class C (sheltered location) with temperature limits in the
range of the manufacturer's specifications and an average temperature of
40 ºC over a long period. The humidity level is within manufacturer's rating.
For a higher average temperature of 60 ºC, the failure rates must be
multiplied by a factor of 2.5 based on experience. A similar factor must be
used if frequent temperature fluctuations are expected.
SIL 3 application
If you use output I of the device, you can reach SIL 3 according to IEC 61508.
•The device shall claim less than 10 % of the total failure rate for a SIL 3 safety
loop.
•For a SIL 3 application operating in low demand mode the total PFD
of the SIF (Safety Instrumented Function) should be smaller than 10
the maximum allowable PFD
value would then be 10-4.

•Since the safety loop has a hardware fault tolerance of 0 and it is a type A
device, the SFF must be > 90 % according to table 2 of IEC/EN 61508-2 for a
SIL 3 (sub) system.
If you use output I or output II of the device, you can reach SIL 2 according to
IEC 61508.
•The device shall claim less than 10 % of the total failure budget for a SIL 2
safety loop.

•Since the safety loop has a hardware fault tolerance of 0 and it is a type A
device, the SFF must be > 60 % according to table 2 of IEC/EN 61508-2 for a
SIL 2 (sub) system.
PL d application
•If you use output I of the device, you can use the device in safety control loops
up to performance level PL d.
•The devices were qualified for use in applications acc. to EN/ISO 13849-1.
They fulfill PL d and are designed as Category 3 equipment. Consider the
rules for use given in this standard.
The safe state of the outputs is the de-energized state. This state is reached when
the input is in low state.
Safety Function
K***-SH-Ex1
The devices have two outputs that can be used for the safety function. Output I is
a relay output with triplicated output relay, intended for use in applications up to
SIL 3 or PL d. Output II is an additional relay output that may by itself be used in
applications up to SIL 2.
KFD2-SH-Ex1.T(.OP)
The devices have two outputs that can be used for the safety function. Output I is
an electronic output that may be used in applications up to SIL 3 or PL d. Output II
may be used in applications up to SIL 2.
Line Fault Detection
The input circuit of all versions is supervised. The related safety function is
defined as the outputs are low/de-energized (safe state), if a line fault or a short
circuit of the sensor is detected.
Reaction Time
The reaction time for all safety functions is < 30 ms.
Note!
The fault indication output is not safety relevant.

acc. to SN29500. This value is calculated with the failure rates of the device components which are part of the
safety function of the device.
Although a constant failure rate is assumed by the probabilistic estimation this
only applies provided that the useful lifetime of components is not exceeded.
Beyond this useful lifetime, the result of the probabilistic estimation is
meaningless as the probability of failure significantly increases with time. The
useful lifetime is highly dependent on the component itself and its operating
conditions – temperature in particular. For example, the electrolytic capacitors
can be very sensitive to the operating temperature.
This assumption of a constant failure rate is based on the bathtub curve, which
shows the typical behavior for electronic components.
Therefore it is obvious that failure calculation is only valid for components that
have this constant domain and that the validity of the calculation is limited to the
useful lifetime of each component.
It is assumed that early failures are detected to a huge percentage during the
installation and therefore the assumption of a constant failure rate during the
useful lifetime is valid.
However, according to IEC/EN 61508-2, a useful lifetime, based on general
experience, should be assumed. Experience has shown that the useful lifetime
often lies within a range period of about 8 to 12 years.
As noted in DIN EN 61508-2:2011 note N3, appropriate measures taken by the
manufacturer and plant operator can extend the useful lifetime.
Our experience has shown that the useful lifetime of a Pepperl+Fuchs product
can be higher if the ambient conditions support a long life time, for example if the
ambient temperature is significantly below 60 °C.
Please note that the useful lifetime refers to the (constant) failure rate of the
device. The effective life time can be higher.
If the safety loop is put out of service, the safety function is no longer guaranteed.
•Do not deactivate the device.
•Do not bypass the safety function.
•Do not repair, modify, or manipulate the device.
Operating the device
1. Observe the safety instructions in the instruction manual.
2. Observe the information in the manual.
3. Use the device only with devices that are suitable for this safety application.
4. Correct any occurring safe failures within 8 hours. Take measures to maintain
the safety function while the device is being repaired.
5.1Proof Test Procedure
According to IEC/EN 61508-2 a recurring proof test shall be undertaken to reveal
potential dangerous failures that are not detected otherwise.
Check the function of the subsystem at periodic intervals depending on the
applied PFD
See chapter 3.4.
It is under the responsibility of the plant operator to define the type of proof test
and the interval time period.
Equipment required:
•Digital multimeter with an accuracy better than 0.1 %
For the proof test of the intrinsic safety side of the devices, a special digital
multimeter for intrinsically safe circuits must be used.
Intrinsically safe circuits that were operated with non-intrinsically safe circuits
may not be used as intrinsically safe circuits afterwards.
•Power supply set at nominal voltage of 24 V DC.
•Potentiometer 4.7 k.
•Resistor 220 /150 k.
•Resistor 1.3 k/0.5 W (.T(.OP) version only).
•Resistor 1 k/1 W.
in accordance with the characteristic safety values.
- by a potentiometer of 4.7 k (threshold for normal operation),
- by a resistor of 220 (short circuit detection) and
- by a resistor of 150 k (lead breakage detection)
3. Connect a load of 1.3 k to the voltage output of the .T(.OP) device.
4. Supply the relay contact output by 24 V DC externally. Connect an 1 k
resistor as load to the relay contact output. Test this configuration with a
multimeter for the state (on).
5. For versions with triplicated relays, test each single relay with a multimeter if
the off state is reached.
The input threshold must be between 2.1 mA and 2.8 mA. The hysteresis
must be between 170 µA and 250 µA (measured with input multimeter and
potentiometer).
If the input current is above the threshold,
- the voltage output must be activated, voltage level higher than 20 V DC
(.T(.OP) version only),
- the relay contact output must conduct (approx. 24 mA over 1 k),
- the yellow LED must be on.
6. For the functional safety it is important that the voltage output is definitely off
(less than 1 V DC) and each single relay contact output is definitely open (high impedance), if the input is below the lower threshold (typ. 2.5 mA) or
above the higher threshold (typ. 6 mA).
7. Connect the resistor R
(220 ) or the resistor RLB (150 k) to the input.

The red LED must indicate the fault, the voltage output is off, the relay
If the safety loop is put out of service, the safety function is no longer guaranteed.
•Do not deactivate the device.
•Do not bypass the safety function.
•Do not repair, modify, or manipulate the device.

In case of maintenance, repair or replacement of the device, proceed as follows:
1. Implement appropriate maintenance procedures for regular maintenance of
the safety loop.
2. Ensure the proper function of the safety loop, while the device is maintained,
repaired or replaced.
If the safety loop does not work without the device, shut down the application.
Do not restart the application without taking proper precautions.
Secure the application against accidental restart.
3. Do not repair a defective device. A defective device must only be repaired by
the manufacturer.
4. Replace a defective device only by a device of the same type.
