Quantum Innovation: SIL2 Quantum PLC 
For the manufacturing, processing, handling and storage of volatile, combustible chemicals and materials, it is imperative that SIL-rated systems and controls function consistently at certifiable Safety Integrity Levels (SIL). The SIL2 Quantum PLC is certified by the TÜV Rheinland Group for use in applications up to and including SIL2 according to IEC 61508.
Designed around the proven technology of the Quantum family of PLCs, the SIL2 Quantum PLC is programmed using the robust, reliable software platform, Unity™ Pro XLS.
Features
| • Hot Standby |
| |
In addition to standard Quantum Hot Standby functions, the SIL2 Quantum PLC can be utilized to provide high availability for the central processing unit. |
| • Redundant I/O |
| |
High availability for I/O is possible by using the safety I/Os in a redundant manner |
| • Diagnostics |
| |
The SIL2 Quantum PLC provides two shutdown paths and allows double code generation and execution to detect systematic errors in code generation, the CPU and RAM |
Flexibility
The SIL2 Quantum PLC is designed with safety modules, yet also supports TUV Certified non-interfering modules, allowing the user to control the safety application, as well as related functions. An error in a non-interfering module does not affect the execution of the safety functions.
