architecture (the identified level to which the safety
related parts of a control system resist faults and their
subsequent behaviour if a fault occurs) outlined within the
standard EN ISO 13849, or
–
Safety Integrity Level 2 (SIL 2) with hardware fault
tolerance (HFT) 1, as set out in EN [IEC] 62061.
