Description

Functional Characteristics
  • Superior Redundancy and Stability
    • The triple modular redundant structure makes three identical circuits operate in parallel. The module receives signals from the main processor module through three channels, conducts voting on the data, and selects a normal channel to drive the output, which greatly improves the reliability of the system.
    • It can still operate normally even if as many as two internal channels fail, and will not cause the overall downtime of the control link, which ensures the continuity of industrial production.
  • Comprehensive Self-Diagnosis and Self-Calibration
    • It maintains an internal voltage reference to realize the self-calibration function, and each channel is equipped with a current loopback circuit that can independently verify the accuracy and existence of analog signals without being affected by load or channel selection.
    • It continuously performs diagnostic operations on each internal channel and circuit. When a fault is detected, the faulty channel will be deactivated immediately, the fault indicator will be turned on, and the chassis alarm will be triggered at the same time to remind the staff to deal with it in time.
  • Reliable Circuit and Power Protection
    • The design of the module can prevent unselected channels from driving analog signals to the on-site equipment, avoiding signal confusion and incorrect operation of the equipment.
    • It supports redundant loop power supply sources, and is equipped with independent power supply and fuse indicators. This design can prevent the entire module from stopping working due to a single power supply failure.
  • Convenient Maintenance and Installation
    • It supports hot-spare capability, allowing online replacement of faulty modules without shutting down the entire system, minimizing production losses caused by maintenance.
    • The modular design not only facilitates the expansion of the number of output points according to the scale of the industrial project, but also makes daily inspection and part replacement more efficient.
