1 Application of Weibull reliability model for functional safety of electro-hydraulic system 1

2 When the safety of the machinery users relies on a reliable function of the control system, than a safety function is required. Source: 10 steps to Performance Level Performance Level (PL) as integrity measure of a safety function. 2

13 Functional safety for machinery is dependent on reliability; Mechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic systems have high reliability at beginning of service life; This is however not accurately considered by functional safety standards; Method allows estimation of PFH D considering more accurate reliability models for hydraulic systems, such as: Lifetime testing, or Field failure analysis; Better Performance Level (PL) could be claimed, if other conditions are fulfilled; Method opens possibility for further usage of hydraulic components in safety critical applications, as: Complex machinery with many interrelated actuators; Challenging applications as subsea oil and gas industry. 13
