Product Description
Triconex 9832 I/O Bus Expander
Product Overview
- The Triconex 9832 is an I/O Bus Expander designed for the Triconex Safety Instrumented System (SIS), part of Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure Tricon platform. It extends the I/O bus to connect additional I/O modules, enabling system scalability while maintaining the Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) architecture. The 9832 is used in safety-critical applications in industries such as oil and gas, chemical, and power generation, ensuring reliable data transfer between the main chassis and expansion chassis, compliant with Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3) requirements.

Additional Details
- The 9832 includes the following additional information based on its standard use and documentation:
- Function: Facilitates communication between the main chassis (e.g., 8110 or 8400) and expansion chassis, allowing the Tricon system to scale by adding I/O modules for applications like emergency shutdown (ESD), fire and gas detection, and burner management systems (BMS). Ensures TMR fault tolerance for reliable data transfer.
- Mounting: Installs in a dedicated slot within the Tricon main chassis; connects to expansion chassis via proprietary I/O bus cables, maintaining system integrity.
- Compatibility: Compatible with Tricon v9.6 and later systems; supports chassis like 8110 (high-density) and 8400 (low-density), and I/O modules such as 3503E, 3700A, and communication modules like 4119A.
- Configuration: Configured via TriStation 1131 software; operates transparently without requiring user programming, seamlessly extending the I/O bus.
- Certifications: Meets IEC 61508 SIL3, UL, CE, and Factory Mutual (FM) standards for Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations; complies with IEC 61131 environmental and EMC requirements.
