ICS Triplex T8431C Trusted TMR 40 Channel Analog Input Module

ICS Triplex T8431C is a 40-channel TMR analog input module for Rockwell Trusted safety instrumented system. Each channel adopts triple redundant signal acquisition path, performing voting calculation to obtain accurate measurement values for pressure, temperature and flow transmitters.

This C version comes with conformal paint coating for anti-corrosion and moisture resistance in harsh plant environments. It supports 0-22mA and 0-6VDC signal input, hot swap and comprehensive channel diagnostics. It is widely used as spare parts for oil, gas and chemical SIS cabinet maintenance and replacement.
