The TRICONEX 8312 is a safety controller under the Triconex brand (owned by Schneider Electric) and serves as a core component of the Triconex Safety Instrumented System (SIS). It adopts a triple modular redundancy architecture, ensuring the system operates normally even if a single channel fails. Through real-time data acquisition, logical judgment, and output control, it enables rapid response and effective management of potential hazards. It is mainly used in critical safety application scenarios such as fire alarm and fire suppression systems, gas leakage detection and alarm systems, and Emergency Shutdown (ESD) systems.
