Product Overview

The Triconex 3482 functions as a dedicated communication module for Triconex Safety Instrumented Systems. It enables high-speed data exchange between the Triconex main processor and external networks or devices. This module ensures seamless integration of critical safety data into your broader control and monitoring infrastructure.

Key Technical Specifications

Engineers use this module to connect Triconex systems with Modbus networks and diagnostic tools. Its robust design maintains the high integrity required for safety applications while facilitating essential communications. Below, we detail the core technical parameters.

Detailed Features and Benefits

High-Integrity Data Exchange for Critical Systems
The Triconex 3482 provides a dedicated communication path for sharing data between multiple Triconex chassis. It allows you to synchronize process variables and status information across large, distributed safety systems. Consequently, you achieve coordinated safety actions across an entire plant.

Fast and Reliable Peer-to-Peer Linking
This module uses the high-speed TriCoLX protocol to connect up to 15 chassis in a peer-to-peer network. It transmits data at rates up to 2.5 Mbps over fiber optic cables. Therefore, you benefit from fast, electrically isolated communication that resists interference.

Simplified System Diagnostics and Monitoring
The 3482 continuously monitors its own communication integrity and reports status via front-panel LEDs. It allows maintenance personnel to quickly verify link health without special tools. This feature simplifies troubleshooting and helps ensure continuous system uptime.

Maintains Safety System Integrity
Crucially, the Triconex 3482 isolates communication traffic from the main safety processing tasks. It handles data exchange without introducing latency or compromising the TMR voting logic. As a result, you can safely integrate critical data flows while preserving the core safety function.
