Complex systems ensure safety
Functional safety is an important property for complex IT systems and serves to minimise risk. The close interaction between the human as operator, the vehicle and the environment in the military field requires adherence to measures that absolutely guarantee correct functioning and limit any risks. For that reason, KNDS Deutschland Mission Electronics does not have an isolated view of device developments for safety-oriented environments.
When designing and programming IT systems and applications, KNDS Deutschland Mission Electronics prioritises the protection of the environment, the protection of the machine and, above all, the health of the operator. KNDS Deutschland Mission Electronics handles this by applying the functional safety requirements according to DIN EN ISO 61508.
Safety level up to SIL 3
System solutions from KNDS Deutschland Mission Electronics fulfil safety functions up to safety level SIL 3. The safety integrity level, or safety requirement level, is a measure of the reliability of the system depending on the risk. KNDS Deutschland Mission Electronics is the sole supplier of militarised displays which fulfil SIL 3.
