Device Couplers
receive three major FM approvals


The TRUNKSAFE TS200 Fault-Tolerant Fieldbus System from MooreHawke, the fieldbus division of Moore Industries, has received three major certifications through Factory Mutual (FM).

This system provides a cost-effective and highly reliable strategy to maintain continuous communications between field devices and a host system in the event of any single point failure (such as any open single wire) on a FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 or PROFIBUS PA segment.

TRUNKSAFE device coupler series, including models TS206 and TS20W, has acquired ATEX-Type N, IECEx-Type N, and cFMus-General/Ordinary Location and Non-Incendive certifications from Factory Mutual.

“TRUNKSAFE is the industry’s first fault-tolerant fieldbus system intended for use in both critical and non-critical processes. Now, customers with hazardous location process segments can have complete confidence in TRUNKSAFE’s capabilities to protect their process,” said Moore Industries Director of Engineering Tina Lockhart.

Copies of the ATEX, IECEx and cFMus certificates can be downloaded from Moore Industries Interface Solution Product Certification Summary, a downloadable PDF listing of product certifications. The alphabetical listing is by product, and contains links to copies of product certificates available.
