Functional Characteristics

  1. Full TMR Fault-Tolerant Safety Architecture

    Three independent signal acquisition channels execute synchronous sampling and 2oo3 voting logic. Single channel fault completes isolation automatically without system shutdown, maintains continuous safe operation and eliminates single-point failure risk.

  2. 16 Independent Opto-Isolated Input Channels

    Each channel adopts complete optical isolation design, fully isolates field harsh electromagnetic interference and fault voltage from internal safety system, prevents fault propagation between channels and improves signal stability.

  3. Complete Real-Time Channel Diagnosis Function

    Integrates full-channel open wire detection, short circuit detection, channel fault detection and module self-diagnosis. Fault status is displayed by LED indicators and uploaded to Trident controller in real time for alarm and maintenance management.

  4. High-Speed Stable Signal Acquisition & Filtering

    Built-in professional digital signal filtering circuit, effectively suppresses field signal jitter and interference, realizes stable and accurate discrete signal identification with ≤5ms fast response speed.

  5. Hot-Swappable & Maintenance-Friendly Design

    Supports online module replacement without powering down the entire safety system, greatly reduces system downtime and maintenance difficulty.

  6. Clear Status Visual Indication

    Equipped with module running OK indicator, channel active indicator and channel fault indicator, realizes intuitive on-site status monitoring and rapid troubleshooting.
