Overview

The Triconex 8310N2 power module is engineered for continuous operation in safety-critical applications, including Distributed Control Systems (DCS) and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). It ensures uninterrupted power delivery to Triconex chassis and I/O modules, even under fault conditions or electrical disturbances.

Moreover, the 8310N2 features redundant architecture, allowing multiple modules to operate in parallel for high availability. It includes optical isolation to protect control electronics from field-level interference, and its IP65-rated enclosure makes it suitable for harsh industrial environments.

In addition, the module supports hot-swapping, enabling maintenance without system shutdown. Its compact form factor and modular design simplify installation in control cabinets and OEM panels.

Technical Data

Typical Applications

• Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS): Powers logic solvers and I/O modules in SIL 3-rated safety architectures.

• Oil & Gas Facilities: Supports emergency shutdown systems and fire/gas detection panels.

• Power Generation: Provides stable DC power for turbine protection and excitation control.

• Chemical Processing Plants: Ensures reliable operation of interlocks and safety loops.

• OEM Automation Panels: Integrated into custom-built cabinets requiring fault-tolerant power delivery.

Example:
In a refinery SIS, the 8310N2 module ensures continuous power to trip logic and field devices, even during grid disturbances, making it critical for plant safety and regulatory compliance.
