SIMATIC PCS 7 Process Safety (ST-PCS7SAF)

• In this classroom course you will learn how to create a failsafe application with CFC in compliance with PCS 7 and how to use the Safety Matrix. You will experience a perfect combination of theory and practical exercises.
  
  The theoretical parts of the training are supported by practical exercises. These are carried out on failsafe CPU 410-5H automation systems with communication via Profinet and failsafe signal modules in the ET 200SP HA.
  

• After attending the course, you can do the following:
  • Raise your awareness of the Machinery Directive and relevant standards
  • Select and configure failsafe hardware according to your functional safety requirements
  • Commission failsafe SIMATIC controllers
  • Configure safety-related functions and determine and set safety-relevant times
  • Configure and set up the SIMATIC PCS 7 Safety Matrix
  • Perform diagnostics and troubleshooting in failsafe systems and programs
• 
  
• You will deepen your theoretical knowledge through numerous practice-oriented exercises in our virtual exercise environment.

•  
  • Project managers, project staff
  • Programmer
  • Commissioning engineers, configuration engineers

•  
  • Understanding of functional safety
  • Basics from IEC 61508 and IEC 61511
  • LOPA (Layer of Protection Analysis) and Risk graph by means of a safety instrumented function
  • Explanation of SIF (Safety Instrumented Function)
  • System architecture and diagnostics in safety components (Hardware, Software, Communication)
  • Overview about F-Hardware
  • Parameter in HW-Configuration (safety mode, sensor evaluation, addressing, monitoring time, H-parameter, Wiring and Voting)
  • Safety program (Acknowledgement, voting blocks, block types, Secure Write Command++, communication)
  • Safety mechanisms (F-Shutdown, Partial Shutdown Groups, passivation, reintegration, block type)
  • Project planning and handling of the Safety Matrix
  • Calculate and adjust F-times using S7ftime.xlsm (reaction-, monitoring times)

•
