PMS Requirements

Key Details

Redundancy

Segmented, multiple redundant protection groups, sufficient redundancy for connections between redundant divisions in all working conditions.

Independence

Independence for multiple channels inside the system, between 1E system and N1E system, other 1E system with physical separation, electric and communication isolations.

Diversity

To resist CCF.

Simplification

Less equipment, types, interactions, simple software languages.

Failure Safe

Failure will not prevent the safety actions or degrade system to unacceptable level.

Single Failure Criteria

Capability to perform safety functions concurrent with single failure.

Testability

Testability under conditions of power operation and shutdown. No lifting or jumpers required.

Self-Diagnostics

Self-Diagnostics, communication check, data integrity validation and calibration for analog input channels.

Operability

Checking the operational availability and assuring operational availability

Communication

Reliability of communications shall not lower than other parts.
