- Signal Type: Bipolar, -60 to 60 mA
- Points: 4
The 9871-810 is not a generic ETP; it is specifically designed to handle the unique wiring requirements of the Triconex 3807 module, which provides a high-current, bipolar (-60 to 60 mA) analog output. It acts as the physical interface between the field wiring and the I/O module, providing a robust and organized connection point for these specialized signals.
Triconex 9871-810 Bipolar Analog Output Termination Panel
Brief Product Description
The Triconex 9871-810 is a specialized External Termination Panel (ETP) that provides a secure and reliable interface for the Triconex 3807 Bipolar Analog Output module. This panel is essential for connecting the module’s unique -60 to 60 mA bipolar signals to field devices such as specialized actuators or control equipment. Its design is tailored to simplify the wiring of these high-current, bidirectional signals, which are not handled by standard termination panels.
- Product Type: Bipolar Analog Output Termination Panel (ETP)
- Compatible Module: Triconex 3807
- Signal Type: -60 to 60 mA Bipolar
- Number of Points: 4
- Key Feature: A robust and organized screw-terminal interface for specialized, high-current bipolar signals.
Why the 9871-810 Is Essential for Your System
The Triconex 9871-810 plays a critical role in any system using the 3807 module. The bipolar analog signals from the 3807 are not standard, and a typical ETP would not be able to accommodate them. This specialized panel ensures a correct and reliable connection.
Its primary functions include:
- Simplified and Secure Wiring: The ETP provides a clean, organized, and robust termination point for the field wiring. This approach minimizes the chance of wiring errors and makes installation and maintenance much easier than attempting to wire directly to the sensitive I/O module.
- Enhanced System Integrity: By using a pre-fabricated cable to connect the ETP to the module, the system reduces the number of individual wire connections, which are potential points of failure.
- Facilitating Hot-Swapping: The ETP enables the hot-swap capability of the Triconex system. Should the 3807 module need to be replaced, technicians can do so without disturbing the field wiring or shutting down the entire process, which is invaluable in continuous operations.
Technical Specifications
Application Areas
The Triconex 9871-810 is an integral part of any Triconex safety system that uses the 3807 module for highly specialized, safety-critical control tasks.
- Turbomachinery Control: Used to provide the interface for high-current bipolar signals that precisely control specialized actuators on turbines, compressors, and other rotating equipment.
- Critical Valve Control: In applications where a single valve must be precisely positioned in both directions from a neutral point, this ETP is used to terminate the bipolar control signal.
- Specialized Actuator Control: For any application requiring high-integrity, bidirectional control of actuators that are driven by a bipolar current signal.
