Triconex 4000188-380 16-channel Triple Modular Redundancy Supervised Digital Output Module

Description

• • Physical and Environmental Parameters
    • Structural Dimensions: The module adopts a compact design with dimensions of 178 mm × 127 mm × 51 mm, which fits the Triconex standard chassis and saves the installation space of the control cabinet.
    • Weight: The net weight is about 1.6 kg, and the metal shell design enhances the structural firmness and impact resistance.
    • Operating Temperature: It can operate stably in the range of -40°C to 70°C, and can adapt to the harsh temperature environment of both indoor control rooms and outdoor industrial sites.
    • Humidity Adaptability: It can work normally in an environment with relative humidity of 5% – 95% without condensation, avoiding component damage caused by moisture corrosion.
    • Vibration Resistance: It can withstand 2 g vibration in the frequency range of 10 Hz – 500 Hz, which is suitable for installation on equipment with continuous vibration such as pumps and compressors.
• Functional Features
  • Triple Modular Redundancy Ensures Fault Tolerance: Three independent circuit paths process and output signals at the same time. A two-out-of-three voting mechanism determines the final output signal. Any single-channel or dual-channel fault will be automatically isolated and will not affect the normal output of the module. This structure completely eliminates single-point failure risks.
  • Supervised Output Prevents Hidden Dangers: The built-in supervised function of the module can continuously detect the connection state of the output loop and the working state of the load. It can quickly identify faults such as line disconnection, load short circuit and poor contact, and transmit fault information to the main controller in real time, avoiding potential safety hazards caused by unperceived signal loss.
  • Support Hot-Swap Reduces Downtime: The module is compatible with the hot-swap function of the Triconex system. Maintenance personnel can replace the faulty module without shutting down the entire safety system. This function greatly shortens the system downtime caused by module maintenance and improves the operating efficiency of the production line.
  • Strong Compatibility Realizes Flexible Integration: It can be perfectly integrated with Triconex Tricon and Trident series controllers. It does not need to modify the core program of the system during integration, and can achieve plug-and-play with the matching terminal block, which simplifies the system debugging process and reduces the difficulty of project implementation.
• Application Scenarios
  • Oil and Gas Industry: It is deployed in emergency shutdown systems and fire and gas systems of onshore oilfields and offshore platforms. It is used to control emergency shut-off valves and fire-fighting solenoid valves. When gas leakage or abnormal pressure is detected, it can quickly output control signals to cut off the oil and gas transmission pipeline and start the fire-fighting system.
  • Petrochemical Industry: It is installed in the safety interlock system of ethylene crackers and chemical storage tanks. It drives the actuator of the feeding valve and the emergency alarm device. When the reaction temperature or pressure exceeds the safety threshold, it can immediately cut off the feeding and send out an alarm signal to avoid dangerous accidents such as equipment explosion.
  • Power Generation Industry: It is applied to the safety control system of thermal power plants and nuclear power plant auxiliary equipment. It controls the switching of steam turbine bypass valves and boiler safety valves. When the generator set has abnormal conditions such as over-speed and over-temperature, it can quickly output signals to adjust the equipment state or shut down the equipment.
  • Pharmaceutical Industry: It is used in the automatic control system of pharmaceutical production lines, especially in the processes of high-temperature sterilization and precision filling. It controls the operation of sterilization equipment and filling machines to ensure that each link of drug production meets GMP standards and avoids batch quality problems caused by process deviations.
  • Metallurgical Industry: It is integrated into the safety system of blast furnaces and continuous casting equipment. It controls the opening and closing of cooling water valves and the start and stop of material conveying equipment. When the furnace temperature is too high or the molten steel conveying is blocked, it can output control signals in time to adjust the production process and protect the production equipment.
