Distance from the active face within which
the correct detection of the absence of
a defined object (see Chapter 8) under all
defined environmental conditions and the
defined safety level can be achieved.
Output signal switching element (for

Average probability of dangerous failures
of a safety function in the case of request
Minimum one of the two OSSD is swit-
ched off
SIL 1-4 to DIN EN 61508.
The higher the SIL the lower the probabil-
ity that a safety function will fail.
