This file is the Reference Manual for Rockwell / Allen-Bradley 1794-ASB product, which introduces the product's features, usage methods and safety precautions
This application manual details how the FLEX I/O with ControlLogix Control System can be certified for Safety Integrity Level 2 (SIL2) according to IEC 61508 standards. It outlines the specific catalog numbers of modules that are type-approved and certified for use in SIL2 applications.
The document explains the requirements for hardware designs, firmware functions, and application software development using RSLogix 5000 (PADT). It covers proof tests required by IEC 61508, including testing fault routines and digital channels to ensure they are not stuck in an ON or OFF state.
This manual describes FLEX I/O with ControlLogix system components suitable for use in SIL2 applications.
The Programming and Debugging Tool (PADT) required is RSLogix 5000.
Discrete and analog inputs must be used in a 1oo2 configuration for SIL 2.
