French term

bus de terrain rebouclé

French to English Tech/Engineering Automation & Robotics Emergency exits / alarm systems
This is about a control unit that manages a number of emergency exits. This term appears as in the examples shown below. I am thinking "fieldbus with redundant loop" or "redundant loop fieldbus", but perhaps there is a better way.

• Son bus de terrain rebouclé apporte une sécurité accrue en terme d’exploitation,
en permettant de maintenir le contrôle de tous les verrous même en présence
d’une coupure du bus ou d’une défaillance d’un matériel déporté.

• Bus: Ligne de communication rebouclée, long. max. 500 m x Nb. de verrous +1.

• Son Bus terrain est rebouclé, ce qui permet de maintenir le dialogue avec tous
les verrous en cas de coupure de bus ou de défaillance d’un matériel déporté.

Many thanks in advance.

To Claude Andrew As it is, without any answers to this question, my only option is to close it without grading - and without an entry in the glossary. May I invite you to enter your answer - this would allow me to close this question and make an entry in the glossary for future reference. Needless to say, you would be awarded points too.

To Claude Andrew Thank you for your help. I finally used "fail-safe loop fieldbus".

Thank you, Claude. Interesting!

Not a specialist here, but I suggest maybe "failsafe ring field bus"
