Abstract :
This paper presents a safety integrity analysis framework for a controller designed especially by reliable control according to the international safety standard, IEC 61508. The presented framework clarifies a concrete contribution of reliable control to required risk reduction and an established meaning of reliable control in system safety design according to IEC 61508. Hence almost all reliable control can be included to the international standard system.
