TRICONEX 3664

he Tricon supports a comprehensive range ofmodules to meet customers’ needs.Product SpecificationsThe Triconex product family includes acomprehensive range of modules. Thissection includes: a summary of thesystem components and their uses, atable that lists standard products andtheir model numbers, and a summary ofspecifications for each standard productin the Tricon familySee the Tricon Planning and Installation Guide for complete information.Summary of TriconComponentsChassis• Main Chassis—houses MainProcessors, memory back-upbatteries, communication modulesand I/O modules.• Expansion Chassis—for additionalI/O modules up to 100 feet (30meters) away from the MainChassis. In restricted applications,operation up to 1,000 feet (300meters) is supported.• RXM Chassis—for I/O modules upto 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) awayfrom the Main Chassis.• Mechanical Keying—Each slot inthe Tricon is mechanically keyed tocorrespond with a specific type ofmodule. This prevents theinstallation of modules intoimproper slots.For chassis mounting and enclosurespecifications, see page 25.Power Supply Modules• Provide logic power to modules inthe Main, Expansion or RXMChassis. Available in 24 VDC, 115VAC and 230 VAC versions. Thepower rating of each power supply is175 watts at 140 ° F (60° C).Main ProcessorsThe Main Processors execute thesystem diagnostics and the user-writtencontrol program.Communication Modules• Tricon Communication Modules(TCM) support a number ofTriconex protocols and applicationsand user-written applications onEthernet (802.3) networks,including TriStation, Modbus TCPand OPC. It also supports RS-232and RS-485 serial communicationwith Modbus devices, TriStation1131, and GPS for timesynchronization.• Enhanced IntelligentCommunication Modules (EICM)support RS-232, RS-422 and RS485 serial communication withModbus devices and TriStation1131.• Network Communication Modules(NCM) support a number ofTriconex protocols and applicationsand user-written applications onEthernet (802.3) networks,including TriStation 1131.• Safety Manager Modules (SMM) actas an interface between a Triconcontroller and a HoneywellUniversal Control Network (UCN),one of three principal networks ofthe TDC-3000 DCS.• Hiway Interface Modules (HIM) actas an interface between a Triconcontroller and a HoneywellTDC-3000 Hiway Gateway andLocal Control Network (LCN).• Advanced Communication Modules(ACM) allow a Tricon controller tointerface with a Foxboro IndustrialAutomation (I/A) Series DCS andTriStation 1131.Fiber-Optic RemoteExtender Modules (RXM)For operation of Expansion Chassis upto 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) away fromthe Main Chassis, with exceptionalimmunity against electro-static andelectro-magnetic interference.Interface Modules• HART Analog Input InterfaceModules act as an interface between4-20 mA analog input points fromHART smart devices in the field andHART Host software running on aPC.• HART Analog Output InterfaceModules act as an interface between4-20 mA analog output points fromHART smart devices in the field andHART Host software running on aPC.I/O Modules• Digital Input Modules receivediscrete signals of these nominalvoltages: 115 VAC/VDC, 48VAC/VDC, and 24 VAC/VDC. Allvoltages are available in TMRmodules. Non-TMR modules areavailable in 24 VDC and 48 VDConly. Speed input and totalizationmodules are also available.• Supervised Digital Output Modulesproduce discrete output signals ofthese nominal voltages, withdiagnostic coverage of the fieldcircuit and load device: 115 VAC,120 VDC, 48 VDC, and 24 VDC.• Digital Output Modules producediscrete output signals of thesenominal voltages: 115 VAC, 120
