The FSM certificate from TÜV NORD attests Weidmüller that the products have been developed according to the Functional Safety Management System © Weidmüller
Weidmüller receives the Functional Safety Management Certificate in accordance with EN 61508:2010 from TÜV NORD.
The certification body thus attests that Weidmüller has introduced and operates a management system for functional safety in accordance with EN 61508:2010 to conduct the development of safety-relevant electrical, electronic, programmable components and subsystems.
The certificate confirms Weidmüller’s competence in developing safety-related products with a high quality standard.
Every year TÜV NORD conducts a quality assurance audit; recertification takes place every five years.
Manufacturers or operators of safety-related systems or components are obliged to adhere to the requirements of IEC 61508:2010 for the “management of functional safety”.
This obligation extends across the entire product lifecycle, i.e. from the first concept through to decommissioning or deinstallation of the product.
Weidmüller offers an extensive range of certified products, including ACT20X analogue signal conditioners, SAFESERIES safety relays for the emergency shutdown of systems and system parts, VARITECTOR SSC surge protection in the terminal block for measurement and control technology, as well as safety modules from the u-remote I/O system.
With these products, Weidmüller meets the needs of its national and international customers to undertake developments in accordance with this standard.
Weidmüller thus demonstrates that customers receive products that fulfil the highest quality standards.
