System Response Time
Calculation

The safety response time is the time that is required to establish the safe state of
the safety output function considering the demand of the safety monitoring
function and/or occurrence of faults and failures in the safety chain. The overall
response time of the safety function considers the whole safety chain, including
the safety input device, logic device, and actuator. The safety response time is
used to calculate the safety distance, distance between a safeguarding device, and
the hazardous area.

The following paths have to be considered:
