TRICONEX 3000107-150 Basis unit
Product Description:
The TRICONEX Basis Unit (chassis/backplane) is a robust and highly reliable hardware component that houses the core processing, input/output (I/O), and communication modules of a TRICONEX Safety Instrumented System. It provides the necessary power distribution and high-integrity data bus for secure and deterministic communication between the modules. The design emphasizes redundant pathways and robust construction to ensure continuous operation even in the event of component failures.
Key Functions
- Module Mounting and Interconnection: Provides dedicated slots for securely mounting CPU modules, I/O modules, communication modules, and power supplies. It establishes the electrical connections required for these modules to communicate and operate as a cohesive system.
- Power Distribution: Distributes conditioned power from redundant power supply modules to all installed modules, ensuring stable and reliable operation.
- High-Integrity Data Bus: Implements a specialized internal bus that facilitates fast, secure, and fault-tolerant communication between the main processors and I/O modules, critical for safety applications.
- Physical Protection: Offers a protective enclosure for the sensitive electronic components, often designed to meet stringent industrial environmental standards.
Product Parameters (Typical)
- Number of Slots: Varies depending on the specific chassis model (e.g., 2, 4, 8, or more slots) to accommodate different system sizes and configurations.
- Backplane Architecture: Typically uses a high-speed, redundant, and fault-tolerant backplane bus for module communication (e.g., Triple Modular Redundant - TMR, for the Tricon system).
- Power Supply Requirements: Designed to work with redundant TRICONEX power supply modules (e.g., 24 VDC, 120 VAC, 240 VAC).
- Operating Temperature Range: Wide operating temperature range suitable for harsh industrial environments (e.g., -20°C to +70°C).
- Environmental Ratings: Often meets NEMA and IP ratings for ingress protection against dust and moisture.
- Mounting Options: Typically designed for rack mounting or panel mounting in industrial control cabinets.
Product Advantages
- Exceptional Fault Tolerance: The core advantage of TRICONEX systems, facilitated by the Basis Unit's design, is Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR). This means three identical and isolated channels independently execute the control program, with extensive diagnostics and "two-out-of-three" voting logic to ensure error-free, uninterrupted operation even if one or two components fail.
- High Availability: Provides continuous operation and maximum plant uptime, even during component failures or online module replacement, significantly reducing operational risk.
- Safety Certification (SIL3): TRICONEX systems are certified to Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3) by independent third-party agencies (like TÜV Rheinland), making them suitable for the most critical safety and control applications.
- Built-in Diagnostics: Extensive, inherent, and transparent diagnostics continuously monitor system health, identify faults, and alert operators, often without interrupting the process.
- Online Module Replacement (Hot-Swapping): Modules can be replaced online without stopping operations or degrading system performance, minimizing downtime and simplifying maintenance.
- Robustness: Designed for extreme industrial environments, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
- Simplified Engineering: From a user's perspective, the TMR system operates as a single control system, simplifying application setup despite its complex internal redundancy.
Precautions
- ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) Protection: Always handle the Basis Unit and associated modules with appropriate ESD precautions to prevent damage to sensitive electronic components.
- Proper Grounding: Ensure correct grounding of the chassis and cabinet to mitigate electrical noise and ensure system stability and safety.
- Environmental Conditions: Install and operate the Basis Unit within its specified temperature, humidity, and vibration limits. Ensure adequate ventilation within the cabinet.
- Module Compatibility: Verify that all modules being installed are compatible with the specific Basis Unit model.
- Power Supply Sizing: Ensure the power supply system is adequately sized and configured for redundancy to meet the total power requirements of all installed modules.
- Firmware and Software Management: Always use the correct and compatible firmware and software versions for the installed modules and the Basis Unit. Refer to TRICONEX documentation for proper upgrade procedures.
- Wiring Practices: Follow TRICONEX's detailed wiring guidelines for I/O and communication connections to ensure signal integrity and reduce electrical interference.
- Security: Implement appropriate cybersecurity measures to protect the SIS from unauthorized access or cyber threats, as these systems control critical processes.
Product Applications
TRICONEX Basis Units, as the foundation for TRICONEX SIS, are deployed in industries where safety, reliability, and continuous operation are paramount. These include:
- Oil and Gas: Emergency Shutdown Systems (ESD), Fire & Gas (F&G) detection and suppression, Burner Management Systems (BMS), High-Integrity Pressure Protection Systems (HIPPS).
- Chemical and Petrochemical: Process safety interlocks, critical process control, reactor control.
- Power Generation: Turbine control and protection, boiler control, generator protection.
- Nuclear Power Plants: Qualified Safety Parameter Display Systems (QSPDS) and other safety-related control applications.
- Pulp & Paper: Critical machinery control and safety.
- Mining: Safety interlocks for heavy machinery and processes.
- Water and Wastewater Treatment: Critical process control and safety shutdown in large-scale facilities.
Typical Application Scenarios
- Emergency Shutdown System (ESD): A TRICONEX Basis Unit houses the CPU and I/O modules that monitor critical plant parameters and, in an emergency, safely shut down processes to prevent accidents and protect personnel, assets, and the environment.
- Burner Management System (BMS): The Basis Unit forms the core of a BMS, managing the safe startup, operation, and shutdown of industrial burners, furnaces, and heaters, preventing hazardous situations like uncontrolled combustion.
- Turbomachinery Control and Protection (TMC): It can be used to control and protect critical rotating equipment like turbines and compressors, ensuring their safe and efficient operation and preventing costly damage or outages.
