TI - Personnel Safety Systems for the European Spallation Source J2 - Proc. of IPAC2015, Richmond, VA, USA, May 3-8, 2015 C1 - Richmond, VA, USA T2 - International Particle Accelerator Conference T3 - 6 LA - english AB - Providing and assuring safe conditions for personnel is a key parameter required to operate the European Spallation Source (ESS). The ESS will be responsible for developing all of the facility personnel safety related systems. All of these systems will be developed by the Integrated Control Systems Division (ICS) and all will be designed, manufactured, commissioned and operated in accordance with the IEC61508 standard, with regard to functional safety for Electrical/Electronic and Programmable Electronic (E/E/PE) safety related systems. This paper describes the ESS Personnel safety system’s scope, strategy, initial design requirements, and methodology but also provides an update of the system design progress so far.
