IEC EN 61508-2 Test for Programmable Electronic Safety Related Systems

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 61508-2 testing. This International standard sets out a general approach for all safety lifecycle activities for systems consisting of electrical or electronic programmable electronic elements used to perform safety functions.

IEC EN 61508-2 Test for Programmable Electronic Safety Related Systems

This unified approach has been adopted to develop a rational and coherent technical policy for all electrical-based safety-related systems. The main goal is to facilitate the development of international product and application industry standards based on the IEC EN 61508 series.

In most cases, safety is ensured by a set of systems based on many technologies (e.g. mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, electronic, programmable electronics). Therefore, any security strategy must consider not only all elements within a single system (e.g. sensors, controllers and actuators), but also all security-related systems that make up the total combination of safety-related systems. Therefore, this International Standard can provide a framework within which security-related systems based on other technologies can be considered when dealing with E/E/PE security-related systems.

It is recognized that there is a wide variety of applications using E/E/PE security-related systems in various application sectors and covering a wide range of complexity, hazard and risk potentials. The security measures required in any particular application will depend on many application-specific factors. As this International Standard is generic, it will ensure that such measures are formulated in future product and application industry international standards and revisions of currently existing ones.
