Any automated system potentially poses a risk to people, property or the environment. For this reason a number of safety measures have been taken. Safety standards have been created with one
thing in mind: limiting risk. The goal of functional safety is to minimize or eliminate risk that can occur during normal or weakened operations of machines or industrial plants.
