In addition to the components shown in Figure 7, a typical SIS consists of components such as<br />
cables and external termination panels. These components are used to connect the sensors and<br />
final elements to the logic solvers. Figure 8 shows the SIS including these components.<br />
Approved ETPs and interconnecting cables are listed in the Planning and Installation <strong>Guide</strong> <strong>for</strong><br />
<strong>Triconex</strong> <strong>General</strong> Purpose v2 Systems and the Technical Product <strong>Guide</strong> <strong>for</strong> Trident GP v2 Systems,<br />
which are available on the Invensys Global Customer Support (GCS) website.<br />
Design Control, Configuration Management, Supply Chain Management, and Quality<br />
Assurance <strong>for</strong> <strong>Triconex</strong> ETPs and cable assemblies are controlled by Invensys in Irvine,<br />
Cali<strong>for</strong>nia (the <strong>Triconex</strong> factory). Sourcing of approved ETPs and interconnecting cables is also<br />
controlled by Invensys in Irvine.<br />
Certifications<br />
• TÜV approves the use of <strong>Triconex</strong> ETPs and interconnecting cables with <strong>Triconex</strong><br />
<strong>Safety</strong> Logic Solvers.<br />
• TÜV certifies the use of <strong>Triconex</strong> <strong>Safety</strong> Logic Solvers in SIL2 applications with the<br />
TÜV approved ETPs and interconnecting cables.<br />
• <strong>Triconex</strong> ETPs are certified <strong>for</strong> electrical safety in full compliance with international<br />
standards by CSA. They are qualified <strong>for</strong> general use in North America and other<br />
jurisdictions requiring compliance with these standards, as well as the European CE<br />
mark as per the Low Voltage Directive.<br />
• <strong>Triconex</strong> ETPs and interconnecting cables comply with the applicable IEC EMC<br />
standard (IEC 61326-3-1,2,), which includes the European CE mark per the EMC<br />
directive.<br />
• <strong>Triconex</strong> ETPs that are approved <strong>for</strong> hazardous locations also comply with North<br />
America Class1 Div2 (C1D2) and Zone 2 as per the European ATEX directive.<br />
Thus, the boundary of the safety controller (<strong>Triconex</strong> <strong>Safety</strong> Logic Solver) extends up to the<br />
ETPs, including the interconnecting cables, as shown in Figure 8 <strong>Safety</strong> Controller Boundary<br />
(page 29).<br />
