Functional safety covers the implementation of safety instrumented systems and related services to mitigate risks associated with a process in which components such as sensors, logic controls, and acting elements are used. Implementing functional safety ensures that safety critical control and protective systems are appropriately specified, designed, installed, and maintained. Safety devices such as sensors, programmable safety systems, and final elements are an integral part of safety instrumented systems and industrial control systems.

The adoption of standards such as IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 has increased the dependency on functional safety systems to achieve the required risk reduction targets. IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 are performance-based standards that promote the concept of the functional safety life cycle.
