General ProSafe-RS Lite

Specifications Safety Instrumented System Overview

GS 32P51B10-01EN

n GENERAL
ProSafe-RS Lite is a safety instrumented system, to satisfy safety integrity level 2 (SIL 2) specified by the IEC
61508 functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems by TÜV Rheinland,
an external certification organization.
ProSafe-RS Lite can be used to build emergency shutdown systems (ESD), burner management systems (BMS),
and fire & gas protection systems (FGS) that require an up to SIL2 safety loop.
This document describes the system configuration, network specifications, and system requirements of the safety
instrumentation system ProSafe-RS Lite.
ProSafe-RS Lite software is common with ProSafe-RS software certified up to SIL 3. (*1) (*2)
*1: The software is represented as ProSafe-RS Release 4 (ProSafe-RS R4.xx), including the release number.
*2: The Project I/O License, Safety Control Function (for L1SC70), and Safety Control Function for SCS Simulator (for
L1SC70) are dedicated software for ProSafe-RS Lite.

n COMPONENTS
The ProSafe-RS Lite system consists of a safety control station (SCS), an automation design server (AD Server), a
safety engineering station (SENG), and network devices that communicate with each of the equipment.
The AD Server and the SENG are collectively called as automation design suite (AD Suite) and the AD Suite is used
for engineering and provides an engineering environment for configuring and maintaining overall control systems,
including plant instrumentation, safety instrumentation, and maintenance management.

l Safety Control Station (SCS)

SCS offers safety control functions, sequence of events recorder (SOER) function, CENTUM VP integration function,
and communication function which interfaces the SCS with other systems. The SCS consists of a safety control unit
and safety node units connected to a safety control unit.
I/O modules to be mounted on the safety control unit and the safety node unit are equipped with AI/AO/DI/DO/
communication functions by the module.

l Automation Design Server (AD Server)

AD Server manages engineering data such as RS project in the AD Suite using an automation design master
database (ADMDB). Multiple RS projects can be managed in a single AD Server.
In the AD Server, work information can be shared among multiple users by centralizing management of the entire
plant engineering information. The users can obtain design information corresponding to an actual system, which
enables effective operation when maintaining or modifying the system.
Software: RS4E5000 Engineering Server Function

Engineering information of ProSafe-RS Lite is managed as an SCS project for each SCS, and multiple SCS projects
are collectively managed as an RS project. The engineering information in the plant can be bundled into one RS
project or divided into multiple RS projects, and the RS project is managed by the AD server. Note that the SCS
project belongs to only one RS project.
The RS project can consist of not only the SCS projects for the ProSafe-RS Lite but also SCS projects for ProSafe-RS
certified up to SIL 3.
An RS project requires one project ID license.

n NETWORK SPECIFICATIONS
The ProSafe-RS Lite uses Vnet/IP and Ethernet for communications among configured devices.

l Vnet/IP (control network)

Vnet/IP is a gigabit Ethernet-based and dual-redundant control network which provides real-time communication with
high reliability. The dual-redundant bus consists of a bus 1 and a bus 2. The bus 1 is normally used for transmitting
control data. When the bus 1 fails, the communication path switches automatically and the bus 2 continues the control
communication without stopping.
The following shows an example of network connection.

In a Vnet/IP domain, L1SC70 safety control unit is connected to 1 Gbps L2SWs (*1) via an unshielded twist-pair
(UTP) straight cable with the enhanced category 5 (CAT5e) or superior. Since each of the Vnet/IP bus is separated by
the bus as an independent subnet, each bus must be equipped with the L2SW. Do not connect any two of the stations
in a way to establish multiple communication paths when using star topology.
The number of installable L2SW between the stations in the same Vnet/IP domain is up to 7 levels per bus. (*2)
Cascade connections in multiple layers are available.

*1: Maximum communication bandwidth is 100 Mbps. Use 1 Gbps L2SW that can connect 100 Mbps devices.
*2: When using ring topology, the sum of L2SW and L3SW between of the stations must be kept up to 7 levels no matter where
a failure is occurred in the network in the domain.

Specifications between Instruments
Distance between the two arbitrary stations in a domain: Maximum 40 km
Note: Only one pair of media converters (SFP Modules) can be connected for establishing the communication among control
stations such as SCS, SENG, and HIS, and layer 2 switches.
Inter-SCS safety communication specifications
The SCS can perform inter-SCS communication with other SCSs in the same domain as well as in different
domains, which is referred to as safety communication. The inter-SCS safety communication allows configuration of
a safety loop up to SIL2 between SCSs via a control network.
A safety loop up to SIL2 can be configured between the SCS of ProSafe-RS Lite and the SCS of ProSafe-RS R4.06
or later.
The maximum number of SCSs that can be safely communicated by one SCS is 16. (When communicating
bidirectionally between the same SCSs, or when communicating with multiple SCSs, the number of SCSs to
communicate with is less than 16.)

In addition to Inter-SCS safety communication, the SCS has SCS link transmission communication that reports data
to multiple SCSs in the same domain periodically and simultaneously. The SCS link transmission communication
also allows configuration of a safety loop up to SIL2 not only between SCSs of ProSafe-RS Lite but also between
the SCS of ProSafe-RS Lite and the SCS of ProSafe-RS. It is possible to communicate with the FCS of CENTUM
VP. The communication with FCS is Interference-free. For details on Inter-SCS safety communication and SCS link
transmission communication, refer to the GS “RS4F2500 Safety Control Function (L1SC70), RS4F2505 Simulator
Safety Control Function (L1SC70)” (GS 32P53B30-01EN).
l Ethernet (information network)
Ethernet is a network used for file transfer and information communication among the AD Server, SENG, HIS/ENG for
CENTUM VP, and other general-purpose Ethernet instruments.

n I/O COMMUNICATIONS BUS
ESB buses are I/O communication buses that connect the safety node units (I/O nodes) with the safety control unit
(CPU node) of the SCS.
Maximum number of nodes for SCU: 13 safety node units

ESB bus enables ESB bus communication between the safety control unit and the safety node unit. ESB bus starts
from the ESB bus connection port of the ESB bus coupler module L1EC40 on the safety control unit, and is
connected to the ESB bus interface module L1SB401 on the safety node unit.
The distance of ESB bus can be extended by using ESB bus optical repeater master module L1NT41 and the ESB
bus optical repeater slave module L1NT51 with an optical fiber cable.
The ESB bus connection port of ESB bus optical repeater slave module serves as the starting point for a new ESB
bus and can connect the ESB bus interface module L1SB401 and the ESB bus optical repeater master module
L1NT41 on the safety node unit.
