The module can be used to realize applications in accordance with API 670. The module

complies with the turbine requirements for rotation speed monitoring and trip routines defined in

API 670. The rotation speed monitoring and the trip routines are independent of the overall

HIMax system and the user program.

The trip function complies with the requirements specified in the Machinery Directive.

The module has been certified by the TÜV for safety-related applications up to SIL 3

(IEC 61508. IEC 61511 and IEC 62061) as well as Cat. 4 and PL e (EN ISO 13849-1).

Refer to the HIMax Safety Manual (HI 801 003 E) for more information on the standards used to

test and certify the module and the HIMax system.

The module is inserted in redundant connector boards to increase availability through module

redundancy. To this end, the base plate must be equipped with at least two adjacent slots.

The module can be inserted into any of the base plate slots with the exception of the slots

reserved for system bus modules. For more information, refer to the System Manual

(HI 801 001 E).
