ICS Triplex T8314 Product Brief Description

The ICS Triplex T8314 is a Trusted Fibre TX/RX optical transceiver unit built for TMR safety systems. It converts electrical Expander Bus signals into optical signals to extend communication between the main controller chassis and remote I/O expander chassis up to 10km via single-mode fiber. It preserves TMR fault tolerance and SIL3 safety integrity for distributed safety instrumented systems.

Product Features

• Trusted fiber optic TX/RX unit for Expander Bus long-distance extension
• TMR triple redundant communication channels for fault tolerant operation
• Single-mode SC fiber interface, max transmission distance up to 10 km
• Dual 24V DC redundant power input for power failure protection
• DIN rail mounting design, compact size and low power consumption
• High immunity to electromagnetic interference compared with copper cables

Application Scenarios

• Oil & gas SIS safety instrumented systems and offshore platforms
• Petrochemical refinery emergency shutdown ESD systems
• Power plant safety control and turbine protection systems
• Large process plants requiring geographically distributed remote I/O racks
• Industrial sites with heavy electromagnetic interference
