Functional Characteristics
1. Independent TMR Triple Redundancy Acquisition Architecture
Three completely independent acquisition circuits collect the same field analog signal simultaneously. Built-in 2oo3 majority median voting logic filters abnormal data from single faulty channel. Single channel or single acquisition circuit fault does not cause signal misjudgment or safety function loss. The module achieves zero single-point failure performance for analog input acquisition.
2. Ultra-high Density 32 Channels High-Precision Acquisition
32 independent isolated analog input channels realize centralized large-scale process parameter monitoring. 16-bit high resolution and ±0.15%FS high accuracy maintain stable precision under wide temperature fluctuations and eliminate temperature drift deviation. Fully meets high-precision monitoring requirements of safety-critical industrial processes.
3. Full-channel Input Loop Comprehensive Diagnosis Function
Each input channel integrates independent open circuit, short circuit, signal drift and sensor fault detection circuits. Module automatically monitors field transmitter loop status in real time, locates exact faulty channel position and isolates fault immediately. Normal channels operate continuously without interruption.
4. Complete High-voltage Galvanic Isolation & Anti-interference Design
Adopts channel-to-channel 2500 V DC isolated power supply, isolated signal circuits and surge protection circuits. Effectively resists industrial electromagnetic interference, voltage fluctuation and field electrical noise. Ensures stable high-precision analog signal acquisition in severe industrial electrical environments.
5. Standardized Universal 4–20 mA Signal Compatibility
Supports standard industrial 4–20 mA current input, perfectly matches all mainstream pressure, temperature, flow, level process transmitters. Widely adapts to various field analog measurement devices without additional signal conversion modules.
6. Strict SIL3 Compliant Fail-safe Safety Design
Strictly follows IEC 61508 safety standards. Module immediately triggers predefined safe 4 mA input state when detecting critical faults. Effectively prevents dangerous false analog input signals and guarantees process safety under fault conditions.
7. Hot-swappable & Easy Maintenance Performance
Standard modular structure with full hot swap function. Fully compatible with all TRICONEX Trident/Tricon series CPU modules, interface modules and backplanes. Simple wiring, convenient configuration and fast on-site debugging.
8. High Stability Long Service Life
All solid-state circuit design without mechanical moving parts. Extremely low failure rate, meets more than 20 years long-term continuous operation requirements of industrial safety control systems.
