Webinar recording: Validation of Machine Safety Functions

The recording of the webinar presented on October 24th is now available to view on demand.

With modern safety standards, utilizing terms such as SIL and Performance Levels, there are efforts in understanding how to perform proper calculations. An aspect that often is missed is the validation. Is validation done through design, testing or both? This webinar reviews some of the characteristics with validation in both design and physical testing of a safety system. Some examples are provided with an overview of some validation principles. It provides an explanation why validation is important and what can potentially happen if an effective validation is not done.
