grounded, and the Tricon is operating normally, the wiring and attached devices will not
release sufficient energy to cause ignition in the specified flammable atmosphere.
Termination Panels with Interposing Relays
Termination panels with interposing relays can be used with most digital output modules and
are recommended for these applications:
• Load currents greater than 2 amps
• Field voltages greater than 115 VAC
• Voltage-level conversions
• Motor-starter circuit compatibility
Interposing relay panels are available in these configurations:
• 16-point c
ommoned

The digital outputs of the interposing relays are not fault-tolerant. However, each relay
provides an auxiliary contact that can be fed into a digital input to send a loopback signal to the
control program. A user-written loopback check in the control program can ensure that the relay
has achieved its commanded state. The loopback cable must be ordered separately.
Each interposing relay panel provides the capability to common power and return through a
factory-mounted bus-bar arrangement.
Each interposing relay panel consists of:
• A 7 in x 19 in (36 cm x 48 cm) rack-mountable panel with terminals for 16 digital
outputs and 16 digital inputs.
• Two ELCO connectors mounted on the panel for connecting to digital input modules
using digital input cables 9141-010. 9142-010. or 9143-010.
• An EIA standard RS-310-C plate on which the termination panel is mounted.
• A digital output module and a cable compatible with the selected coil voltage.
Bypass Panel for Digital Inputs
Bypass termination panels can be used to connect digital inputs using a bank of 32 pre-wired
switches. Bypass panels have a master keyswitch and terminals for redundant +24 VDC power
sources. Each input point contains an ON status indicator and can be energized only if the
master keyswitch is ON and the corresponding point switch is ON. Each point has a location for
a user-definable label.
Each bypass termination panel comes with one or two 10-foot (3-meter) cables for connecting
the termination panel to a Tricon backplane
