Safety Function of the 700
The safety function of the 700 signal processor consists of a
Flame Relay which comprises its safety function and behaves
as follows:
The Flame Relay (Normally Open)
• The Flame Relay will be energized when the signal
processor is powered and a flame on condition is detected.
• The Flame Relay will be de-energized when the signal
processor is powered, a flame of condition is detected, and
the FFRT (Flame Failure Response Time) has elapsed.
• The Flame Relay will be de-energized when the signal
processor is powered and detects a fault condition.
• The Flame Relay will be de-energized when power to the
signal processor is off.

Term Definition
Dangerous Failure Failure which has the potential to put the safety-related system in a hazardous or fail-to-function
state.
Safety-related System A system that implements the required safety functions required to achieve or maintain a safe
state and is intended to achieve on its own or with other systems the necessary safety integrity for
the required safety functions.
Safety Function Defined function, which is performed by a safety-related system with the aim of achieving or
maintaining a safe state for the plant, in respect of a specified hazardous event.
Proof Test Periodic test performed to detect failures in a safety-related system so that, if necessary, the
system can be restored to an “as new” condition or as close as practical to this condition.
MTTR (Mean Time to
Restoration)
The average duration required for restoration of operations after a failure.
λsd Rate of safe detectable failures per one billion hours.
For example if λsd = 3000, then it is estimated that there will be about 3,000 safe detectable
failures during every one billion hours of operation.
For λsd = 3000, this is about one safe detectable failure every 38 years.
λsu Rate of safe undetectable failures per one billion hours.
λdd Rate of dangerous detectable failures per one billion hours.
λdu Rate of dangerous undetectable failures per one billion hours.
HFT Hardware Fault Tolerance
System Architecture Specific configuration of hardware and software elements in a system.
PFDAVG (Average Probability
of Failure on Demand)
Average Probability of Failure on Demand. In this case, regarding the 700 Signal Processor.
FIT (Failures in Time) A unit of measurement representing one failure per billion hou rs. 1,000,000,000 hours is
approximately 114,155.25 years.
