TRICONEX 4200 communication interface module
The TRICONEX 4200 is a high-performance communication interface module designed for the Triconex Safety Instrumented System (SIS) and distributed control systems (DCS). It serves as a critical "data bridge" between the Triconex safety controller and external devices/systems, enabling stable, secure, and efficient data exchange. Below is its comprehensive detailed information:
- Module Type: Communication interface module (dual-port redundant design)
- Safety Integrity Level (SIL): Complies with IEC 61508 SIL 3; certified for safety-critical communication scenarios
- Operating Voltage: 24V DC (nominal); supports 16–32V DC wide voltage input for industrial power fluctuations
- Power Consumption: <15W (typical operating condition)
- Operating Environment:
- Temperature: -40°C to +70°C (wide temperature range for harsh industrial sites)
- Humidity: 5%–95% RH (non-condensing, suitable for humid environments like offshore platforms)
- Vibration Resistance: 5g (10–2000Hz), meeting industrial anti-vibration standards
- Physical Dimensions: 160mm × 140mm × 120mm (standard 3U form factor, compatible with Triconex chassis slots)
- Weight: Approximately 1.8kg
- Supported Protocols:
- Industrial Ethernet: Modbus TCP/IP, Ethernet/IP, PROFINET IO (for real-time data exchange with DCS/SCADA)
- Serial Communication: RS-485/RS-232 (supports Modbus RTU, suitable for connecting local devices like HMI or field transmitters)
- Safety-Critical Protocols: Triconex proprietary TMR Communication Bus (ensures synchronized data transmission with redundant controllers)
- Data Transfer Rate:
- Ethernet: Up to 100Mbps (full-duplex mode, low latency for real-time control signals)
- Serial Port: Up to 115.2kbps (adjustable baud rate for compatibility with different devices)
- Redundancy Support: Dual independent communication ports (Ethernet/serial); automatic failover (switchover time <100ms) to avoid communication interruptions
- Isolation: 2500V AC galvanic isolation between communication ports and module power supply (prevents signal interference and voltage surges)
