PROFIsafe Introduction Overview PROFIsafe enables safe communication by detecting and reporting all communication errors. Data security is continuously monitored on the PROFIBUS in the process. Technical advantages of PROFIsafe The main advantage of PROFIsafe is that the PROFIBUS communication channel becomes secured by a protocol in a transparent way.
The device meets the requirements of Safety Integrity Level 2 (SIL). See also General functional safety (http://www.siemens.com/safety) Functional safety in process instrumentation (http://www.siemens.com/SIL) For documentation, click "Support" (http://www.siemens.com/processautomation) Preconditions The CPU must be fail-safe in order to be able to communicate with PROFIsafe devices.
