Product Introduction
The Triconex 2000417 is a core structural and backplane chassis frame engineered specifically for Triconex Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS). Serving as the physical and electrical backbone of the Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) architecture, the chassis features high-integrity backplane pin-fields that distribute power, synchronization signals, and inter-module data communications safely across all installed controller and I/O cards.
In critical industrial environments—such as oil and gas refineries, chemical manufacturing complexes, and power generation stations—the 2000417 chassis provides a stable, fault-tolerant housing platform designed to withstand harsh industrial operating conditions while safeguarding uptime.

Compliance & Standards Alignment
When installing system chassis frameworks into high-risk industrial safety enclosures, strict regulatory adherence is mandatory:
- Engineered to support system compliance with international functional safety frameworks, including IEC 61508 for SIL 3 applications.
- Designed to meet heavy industrial electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and vibration immunity criteria when mounted inside approved Triconex protective cabinets.
Technical Note: Always inspect backplane connector pins for structural straightness and debris before mounting new processor or I/O modules into a 2000417 chassis sub-rack.
Storage & Asset Preservation Guidelines
Structural backplane assemblies and chassis frames kept as warehouse spares require proper environmental care to protect metal pins and trace elements:
- Keep the chassis protected in heavy anti-static, moisture-barrier packaging to prevent environmental oxidation on backplane connector pins.
- Store units in an environment where relative humidity remains strictly below 60% to prevent micro-corrosion on gold-plated contact points.
- Perform periodic visual checks of the rear pin-fields and power distribution terminal blocks during routine warehouse inventory audits.
Physical Installation Prerequisites
- Ensure the control cabinet is completely de-energized and locked out (LOTO) prior to mounting or servicing the chassis frame.
- Secure the 2000417 sub-rack firmly to the cabinet frame using all specified mounting hardware to guarantee low-impedance structural ground bonding.
- Verify power supply module connections and system grounding rails before inserting live system cards into the chassis slots.
Buyer’s FAQ & Logistics
Q: What Harmonized System (HS) code applies to the international shipment of this chassis frame?
A: Industrial electronic control system chassis and backplanes typically classify under HS code 8538.90 (parts suitable for use solely or principally with control apparatus). Confirm final classification details with your licensed customs broker.
Q: Does the 2000417 chassis come pre-configured with power supplies or I/O modules?
A: Typically, the 2000417 is supplied as the base chassis/backplane sub-rack frame. Specific modules (such as power supplies, main processors, and I/O cards) are generally populated separately based on your project’s Bill of Materials (BOM).
Q: Is the listed online price final for procurement?
A: Note: Price is subject to market conditions and available surplus inventory levels; contact our technical sales desk for a formal, time-sensitive quotation.
