Summarise this standard

This document specifies a methodology and provides related requirements, recommendations and guidance for the design and integration of safety‐related parts of control systems (SRP/CS) that perform safety functions, including the design of software.

This document applies to SRP/CS for high demand and continuous modes of operation including their subsystems, regardless of the type of technology and energy (e.g. electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical). This document does not apply to low demand mode of operation.

NOTE1 See 3.1.44 and the IEC61508 series for low demand mode of operation.

This document does not specify the safety functions or required performance levels (PLr) that are to be used in particular applications.

NOTE2 This document specifies a methodology for SRP/CS design without considering if certain machinery (e.g. mobile machinery) has specific requirements. These specific requirements can be considered in a Type‑C standard.

This document does not give specific requirements for the design of products/components that are parts of SRP/CS. Specific requirements for the design of some components of SRP/CS are covered by applicable ISO and IEC standards.

This document does not provide specific measures for security aspects (e.g. physical, IT-security, cyber security).

NOTE3 Security issues can have an effect on safety functions. See ISO/TR22100-4 and IEC/TR63074 for further information.

Frequently Asked Questions

ISO 13849-1 is International Organization for Standardization (ISO)'s standard for machinery safety, while AS/NZS 4024.1603 covers machinery safety (Australia and New Zealand). ISO 13849-1 covers risk assessment, safeguarding, safety-related controls or lifecycle requirements for machinery, according to the cited document. AS/NZS 4024.1603 covers risk assessment, safeguarding, safety-related controls or lifecycle requirements for machinery, according to the cited document. It supports consistent specification, verification and documented acceptance across the relevant lifecycle.

ISO 13849-1 is used by machine designers, manufacturers, integrators and workplaces managing machinery hazards. It is an international standard published by International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

ISO 13849-1 covers risk assessment, safeguarding, safety-related controls or lifecycle requirements for machinery, according to the cited document. It is an international standard published by International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

ISO 13849-1 covers risk assessment, safeguarding, safety-related controls or lifecycle requirements for machinery, according to the cited document. In practice it is applied by machine designers, manufacturers, integrators and workplaces managing machinery hazards.

ISO 13849-1 is an international standard published by International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and is applied internationally rather than in a single country.
