Description
The ICS Triplex T8100C is a Trusted TMR Controller Chassis from Rockwell Automation, specifically built for safety-critical industrial applications. It guarantees fault-tolerant operation through its Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) architecture, making it perfect for process control, machine control, and power generation.
Applications
Petrochemical Refineries: ESD rack for large safety interlock systems with high-density I/O.
Thermal Power Plants: Boiler safety monitoring with passive cooling for continuous operation.
Offshore Oil Platforms: Compact SIL 3 control with swing-frame rack installation.
Steel Plants: Blast furnace fan control with strong environmental adaptability.
Coal Gasification Plants: Collects I/O data and transmits process status via industrial protocols.
Key Features
Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR): Provides maximum reliability with three independent processors executing the same program in parallel.
Fail-Safe Operation: If a failure occurs, the system drives itself to a safe state, preventing any potential risks.
Self-Diagnostics: The T8100C continuously checks for faults. If detected, it automatically shuts down to maintain safety.
Modular I/O Expansion: You can add up to 48 I/O modules without interrupting operations, increasing flexibility.
Certified Safety Standards: Meets IEC 61508 SIL 3 and EN 50128 standards, certified by TÜV Rheinland.
