Unveiled: New Version by NAMUR

The International Association of the Chemical Industry (NAMUR) has recently revised and republished its recommendation on the functional safety of electrical elements, known as the NE 142. This updated document serves as a valuable guide for implementing safety using electrical means without being a mandatory standard.

The NE 142 is designed to offer practical solutions that can be adapted to meet safety requirements ranging from SIL 1 to SIL 3. It is important to note that the NE 142 does not replace safety considerations but provides a comprehensive guide for safety implementation using electrical means.

The latest version of the NE 142 has been aligned with current standards and terminology, ensuring it remains relevant and useful for industry professionals. The document uses standard electrical components and circuits, such as plug-in distributions, to provide clear and practical examples.

One key aspect of the NE 142 is its flexibility. It does not dictate whether safety should be met exclusively with electrical means or if diverse solutions should be considered. This allows for a more tailored approach to safety implementation, based on the specific needs and circumstances of each project.

The updated NE 142 can be obtained through the NAMUR interest group's office. For those seeking additional information about NAMUR updates, their official website is a valuable resource.

In conclusion, the revised NE 142 recommendation offers valuable guidance for implementing functional safety using electrical elements. Its flexible approach and practical examples make it a useful tool for professionals in the industry, ensuring safety considerations are met effectively and efficiently.
