You mean openSAFETY isn't  implemented for EtherCAT?  openSAFETY can be 
implemented for every ETHERNET based protocols.
So you have the choice to implement the safety standard defined by the 
EtherCAT standard or the real open and fieldbus independent openSAFETY 
standard.
I would go with the last one.
