Detailed Features and Benefits
High-Speed Pulse Accuracy for Critical Measurements
The Triconex 3510 reliably processes pulses from speed sensors and flow meters at frequencies up to 10 kHz. This high-speed capability ensures precise monitoring of rotating equipment. Consequently, you gain accurate data for over-speed protection and critical flow calculations.
Advanced TMR Architecture for Fault Tolerance
This module utilizes Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) architecture for unparalleled safety. It processes each input signal through three independent legs and votes on the result. Therefore, a single component failure will not compromise the measurement or system operation.
Continuous Diagnostics for Maximum Uptime
The 3510 module performs comprehensive, continuous self-diagnostics during normal operation. It immediately detects any internal fault and reports the issue to the SIS logic solver. This proactive monitoring allows for maintenance without disrupting the safety function.
Robust Channel-to-Channel and System Isolation
Each of the four input channels features full 1500 VDC galvanic isolation. This design prevents electrical faults or ground loops on one channel from affecting others. It also protects the Triconex backplane and logic circuits from field-side electrical transients.
