Fire & gas system, 1200 CPU?

Hi all,

I am designing a F&G safety system and I was planning on using a 1200 CPU with an additional IO card, but I am not sure about the general requirements for such systems.

Are there any general requirements for the controllers on such systems? Europe in particular, but I am also interested in hearing requirements from other regions. 

Hello;

First  look at this discussion on different Safety implementation on Fire and Gas systems:

So, basically, this is a Safety system that is based on a F-CPU (Safety CPU aka Failsafe CPU)  a S7-1200FC CPU in your case  using Functional Safety program blocks for S7-1200:

The burner library pointed out by JacekD shows an example of how to use Safety blocks, you should study it carefully even ic uour project is slightly different.

Hope this helps
