Additional Details
- The 8305A includes the following additional information based on its standard use and documentation:
- Function: Provides stable power to Triconex system components with a triple-redundant architecture, where three independent power supplies continuously monitor each other. If a fault is detected, the faulty supply is isolated, and the system operates on the remaining two, ensuring uninterrupted operation.
- Compatibility: Compatible with Triconex Tricon and Tricon CX systems; integrates with mainframes and chassis, powering modules like 3008, 7400209B-030, and I/O modules.
- Configuration: Hot-swappable in redundant setups, allowing replacement without system shutdown; features self-testing and fault detection with alarms for real-time monitoring; uses secure communication protocols to protect data integrity.
- Certifications: Meets CE, UL, and IEC 61508 standards for Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3) applications; certified for hazardous environments.
