Do we meet IEC 61511 standard with Schneider Electric motor starters?

The IEC 61511 is a safety standard for the process industry. This standard defines the functional safety requirements established by IEC 61508.
Simple motor starters do not meet directly IEC 61508, because IEC61508 is applicable to whole circuitry and not on product level.
For example IEC61508 schematic diagrams can be found in Preventa manuals or any safety manual for Altivar variable speed drives showing the safety levels in reference to IEC61508.
Please follow the dedicated product safety manuals to know all the detail.
