SCHNEIDER Modicon Quantum Safety PLC

Modicon Quantum Safety PLC is a safety programmable logic controller launched by Schneider Electric, which complies with the IEC 61508 standard and has a certification level of SIL3. Its core revolves around the implementation of safety functions, covering four dimensions: hardware configuration, programming specifications, communication mechanism, and fault diagnosis. It supports two deployment modes: independent/hot standby (HSBY), and ensures functional safety through dual processor execution, redundant I/O design, strict memory partitioning (safe/non restricted area), and dedicated programming software Unity Pro XLS. It is suitable for industrial safety scenarios such as emergency shutdown, burner management, and fire and gas monitoring. At the same time, it provides a complete verification and testing process and maintenance specifications to ensure that the system meets PFD/PFH index requirements in low/high demand modes.

140CPU67160S hot standby deployment has the same parameters as the standalone version, supporting fiber link synchronization, automatic switching between primary and backup, and application consistency verification

(2) Safety I/O module

Module type, model, core characteristics, diagnostic function

Digital input 140SDI95300S, 32 points, 24Vdc, MTBF=900000 hours, disconnection detection, power monitoring, channel short circuit detection

Digital output 140SDO95300S 32 point, 24Vdc, MTBF=10000000h overload detection, circuit disconnection, timeout state configuration

Analog input 140SAI94000S 8-channel, 4-20mA, MTBF=700000 hours, over range detection, wire breakage detection, measurement linear verification

(3) Auxiliary hardware requirements

Power module: Only supports 140CPS12420 (AC redundancy) and 140CPS22400 (DC redundancy), requiring dual module deployment to ensure availability

Non interfering modules: including backplane (140XBP series), Ethernet module (140NOE77111), remote I/O adapter (140CRP93200/140CRA93200), not involved in safety functions but must meet compatibility requirements

Wiring specifications: The digital output module needs to be connected in series with a 10A fast fuse, and the analog input needs to be shielded and grounded (recommended STB XSP3000 grounding kit)

3、 Programming standards and software operations

(1) Programming software and language limitations

Unique programming software: Unity Pro XLS (requires secure firmware support)

Language allowed: Function Block Diagram (FBD), Ladder Diagram (LD) only

Disable features: FAST/NTERRUPT tasks, jump statements, ST expressions, derived data types (DDT)

(2) Core programming requirements

Specific requirements and purposes for standardized categories

Task configuration only allows MAST tasks, with a minimum cycle of 20ms to ensure consistency in execution between dual CPUs

The data type only supports basic types such as BOOL/INT/FLOAT+simple arrays to avoid security risks caused by complex data structures

The use of function blocks only allows secure FFB libraries (such as S-AND_ * * *, S-DISIL2, etc.) to ensure the security of logical execution

Memory partition: secure area (write protected), unrestricted area (data transfer only through S2SMOVE-FB), isolated secure/non secure data

(3) Security protection mechanism

Application password: Protect project access, support permission grading (configuration/debugging/maintenance)

Auto lock: After 10 minutes of inactivity (default), the software will be locked and requires a password to unlock

Version stamping: Record the build time when generating binary files for version traceability

Project backup: Regular backup is required (recommended combination of full and incremental backup), with CRC checking for integrity

4、 Operation mode and fault handling

(1) Two operating modes

Mode core feature operation restrictions

Safe mode (default) executes safety functions, prohibits program modification of non downloadable programs, non mandatory variables, and non debuggable

Maintenance mode (temporary) allows program modification, variable forcing, debugging requires unlocking key switch+password, diagnostic results do not automatically execute security actions

(2) Fault diagnosis and handling

CPU failure: When a memory error/inconsistent execution is detected, it enters an error state, and all safety outputs are set to a safe state (power loss). It is necessary to power off and restart, and read the% SW125 error code

I/O module failure: When a channel fails, the single channel is set to a safe state. When a module fails, it automatically restarts and performs a power on self-test. If it fails three times, the module needs to be replaced

Communication failure: When the secure Ethernet communication timeout (configurable) occurs, the HEALTH position is 0, and the receiving end needs to trigger a security action

5、 Communication mechanism

(1) Communication types and restrictions

Core requirements for communication scenario support methods

PC-PLC communication Modbus TCP/RS485/USB requires Unity Pro XLS, verify application password

PLC-PLC communication security requires NTP time synchronization between Ethernet nodes, with unique ID parameters

PLC-HMI communication Modbus TCP/Modbus Plus only allows reading of secure data and writing to restricted non restricted areas

(2) Secure Ethernet point-to-point communication

Synchronization requirement: NTP server polling cycle of 20s, master-slave PLC time difference ≤ 2s

Configuration components: sender end s_WR-ETH FFB, receiver end s_RD-ETH FFB

Timeout configuration: SAFETY VNet ONTROL_TIMEOUT needs to be greater than 2 times (sending cycle+network delay+receiving cycle)

6、 Verification and maintenance

(1) Verification testing requirements

Verification cycle (PTI): up to 10 years, requiring full system testing to be performed in accordance with SIL3 requirements

Verification content: power cycling test, I/O channel verification, safety function triggering test

Document requirements: Keep verification records, fault logs, and project backup files

(2) Maintain standards

Module replacement: Supports hot swapping, and after replacement, a power on self-test (about 30 seconds) needs to be performed

Mandatory operation: Only maintenance mode is allowed, and operation logs need to be recorded and the mandatory operation should be lifted in a timely manner

Firmware upgrade: Only maintenance mode can be executed, and the hot standby system needs to upgrade the backup CPU first
