Technical Specifications

• Input Signals: Depending on the specific variant, the 3806E can accept analog input signals such as 4-20 mA or 20-320 mA current loops for measurement of process variables like temperature, pressure, and flow.
• Output Signals: For analog output modules, the 3806E can provide output signals in ranges such as 0-10 V, 0-20 mA, or 0-5 V, with high accuracy of ±0.1%.
• Number of Channels: The module typically features multiple input or output channels, allowing for simultaneous monitoring and control of multiple signals.
• Isolation: Input/output isolation and channel-to-channel isolation are provided to ensure system safety and stability.
• Communication: The 3806E can communicate with other components within the Triconex system, facilitating system integration and coordination.

Functional Characteristics

• Safety and Reliability: The 3806E is designed to meet high safety standards, such as IEC 62443, and incorporates triple modular redundancy (TMR) principles to ensure continuous operation even in the event of a fault.
• Programmability: The module supports programming, allowing users to configure its behavior to meet specific application requirements and logic.
• Real-Time Performance: The 3806E is capable of responding to input signals with very high speed, ensuring real-time monitoring and control.
• HART Filter: Certain variants of the 3806E include an integrated HART filter of SIL 3 quality, which can “listen” to data traffic and allow only read access to field devices, enhancing system security.
