34-SAMSS-621 ESD Systems - Hard-Wired - Solid-State (Nonprogrammable)

Basic Design Philosophy 6.1 The ESD system shall be designed as a SIL-3 hardwired logic system in accordance with IEC-61508. The ESD system shall be configured to perform the operational and process requirements shown in basic logic and/or cause and effect diagrams supplied by the Buyer or Buyer's engineer. Solid-state ESD systems shall consist of separate sections with Input-Output (I/O) modules, logic modules, and power supplies (logic and/or field). The ESD Logic solver shall be designed as a 24 VDC solid state system regardless of input/output module, voltage or current requirements. The ESD system shall be configured to fail-safe, i.e., any single failure or defect in system hardware or logic, shall cause the affected logic and output(s) to deenergize immediately to its designated failure position. Fail-safe ESD configurations, which are also fault-tolerant (i.e., those which utilize multiple input or output modules or logic solver arrangements) may be quoted as options, depending on the specification requirements for fault tolerance. The ESD system shall include comprehensive diagnostics for individual I/O, logic, and power supply modules, i.e., automatic internal checking and diagnostics, with the capability of detecting both overt and covert faults in hardware and logic elements. Should a component or functional failure occur within the I/O, logic, or power supply sections, an alarm and/or shutdown shall be initiated, along with a diagnostic message or fault code, to an associated graphic display unit and communications/printer port. All components or modules using edge connectors shall use gold-plated contacts. Edge connectors, which incorporate a keying system, are the preferred method of preventing incorrect positioning of a board or module. Plug-in components shall be capable of being removed and replaced while energized. Each module or component shall be identified by a type number.

mounted and be of rigid, heavy-duty construction. Termination panels or assemblies shall have screw type terminals for the field wiring. 7.1.1 I/O Modules 7.1.1.1 The I/O modules shall be plug-in type only (without screw terminals) to allow insertion into or removal from the I/O housings without disturbing external wiring connections. External wiring shall be terminated at a separate I/O module termination panel or assembly. Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) or similar type indicators on the visible front edge of the I/O modules shall indicate the status of all I/O channels, as well as the health-fault status of logic modules.

7.1.1.2

7.1.2

I/O Module Signal Levels 7.1.2.1 Input modules shall be capable of accepting either discrete or analog type (24 VDC, 0-20 ma) input signals. Where analog inputs from 2-wire transmitters are utilized, the input module should provide the 24 VDC power for the transmitter, a signal out-of-range alarm and short circuit alarm. Discrete input circuits shall incorporate optical or electrical isolation and noise/transient filtering rated for a minimum of 500 V RMS or 500 VDC common-mode. Analog input circuits shall be designed to function normally when the applied voltage varies between 85% and 110% of its normal value. Output modules shall convert logic level signals to AC or DC output circuits capable of supplying power to individually isolated, field loads (e.g., motor starters elementary circuits, interposing relays, single or dual solenoids arrangements, etc.). Output modules shall be capable of handling a 2 amp resistive load. Output circuits shall be designed with protective elements (e.g., reverse diode, transient suppression circuits, short circuit, and reverse voltage) to protect against transients resulting from switching inductive loads or improper wiring connections.

7.1.3

I/O Housing and Module Orientation 7.1.3.1 I/O modules shall be oriented in the vertical plane with heat generation sources, e.g., power supplies, located above them. It shall be possible to install the I/O modules in any configuration within chassis or back-planes, regardless of signal voltage level. Input and output circuits shall be physically grouped within modules and chassis so that a potential failure of one module or card will not adversely affect more than one piece of equipment of the group or shutdown multiple process trains.

7.1.3.2

7.1.4

External Input Bypass Switches 7.1.4.1 Each shutdown input into the ESD system shall have individual or grouped, key-lockable switch(s) bypassing the particular field device without impairing the associated dedicated alarm, or alarm print out function. Each bypass switch shall have an associated INPUT CLEAR indicator showing that the switch may be safely returned to its normal position. A separate and unique BYPASS indicator shall also be provided, identifying that the switch is in the bypass position. The BYPASS indicator shall be driven from a dedicated lamp driver circuit to indicate the true bypass status in the system logic. All bypass switch contacts shall be encapsulated or sealed. Each bypass switch shall have a pair of independent contacts, wired to a terminal strip, for remote indication. Each bypass switch shall have a name plate identifying the tag number of the device it bypasses.

7.1.4.2

7.1.4.3 7.2

ESD Logic Section 7.2.1 ESD logic shall be designed to use 24 VDC solid-state, discrete, analog or timer modules or a combination of solid-state components to achieve fail-safe logic design per detailed logic or cause and effect drawings. ESD logic and output design shall prevent incorrect commands from being sent to output devices when main power is applied or restored. This means that power to the output drivers shall not be applied before

Power supply loads shall be calculated with all points energized, and all outputs carrying their maximum connected load. The load calculation shall include provision for installed spares and future expansion capability. 7.3.3 Power Supply Protection Each power supply shall be protected by a properly sized circuit breaker or fuse. Output protection shall be provided via a combination of strategies (i.e., diode auctioning/isolation - where diodes are rated at not less than 300% of the maximum power supply current delivery and time-over voltage/over-current protection). Fast-acting crow-bar circuits, designed to shunt output loads are not permitted. Fuses or circuit breakers shall be capable of being replaced or reset without physically having to remove any wiring terminations. 7.3.4 ESD Chassis Power Supply Diagnostics System diagnostics shall detect events which may compromise internal (ESD chassis) power supply health or integrity (e.g., whenever extreme

11.1.2

These tests shall demonstrate the functionality of each individual input and output point and associated logic elements making up the logic structure of the integrated ESD system. This includes all discrete, analog or timer/counter elements, sub-assemblies, or modules. During the time of testing the vendor shall make available to Buyers representatives (i.e., FAT team), testing and calibration equipment (e.g., VOM meters, portable calibrators, data loggers, etc.) capable of simulating all specified input signals, measuring output signals, verifying event log function and discrimination, and fault-finding system problems.

Wire tagging and terminations shall be checked against wiring diagrams and Tug tested. (A tug test involves physically stressing a wire termination to determine whether it has been crimped and terminated properly. The intent is not to break wiring or stress insulation or components but to test the integrity of the termination). All ESD logic functionality shall be checked against logic drawings and dynamically tested and verified for proper ESD sequence and functionality. The dynamic test will involve physically simulating all inputs and outputs in their proper operational sequence, and verifying that specified ESD application program logic is executed properly. Fail safe output states will be tested in response to simulated input/output module failures and loss of ESD module power. All diagnostic routines shall be tested by simulating I/O module-individual point failures; power supply failure, communications interface failures, card replacement induced failures. Fault histories/summaries, if specified shall be logged and annunciated both on an external printer and an operators workstation or console. All event logging functions shall be demonstrated by randomly generating input event cycles, with the specified point resolution being demonstrated. Where practical, all communications interfaces shall be functionally tested using actual cable types and intended cable lengths. ESD Cabinet heat load and heat dissipation calculations shall be checked against the vendor's calculation method and procedure.
