Calculation of the Performance Level

When properly implemented, the two safety functions of this safety system,

prevention of access of hazardous motion in the guarded area, and emergency stop

of hazardous motion initiated by an E-stop button, can achieve a safety rating of

Category 3, Performance Level d (CAT. 3, PLd), according to EN ISO 13849-1, as

calculated using the SISTEMA software PL calculation tool.
