Triconex 3624 input/output module

Technical parameters

Output type: Digital output, which is a stable switch output and suitable for the control of various devices.

Number of output channels: Usually 16 channels.

Output specification: Each output channel typically supports 24V DC relay output or transistor output, which can directly drive the load and has short-circuit, overload and overvoltage protection functions.

Redundant design: Supports hot-swappable redundant design and is equipped with dual power inputs to enhance system reliability.

Communication protocol: It is usually connected to the main control unit of the Triconex system through high-speed communication protocols, such as TCM, Triconex ControlNet or other dedicated networks.

Diagnostic function: Built-in self-diagnostic mechanism, which can monitor the output status in real time. When a fault occurs in the module output, it can promptly alarm.

Operating temperature: -20°C to + 60°C.

Humidity: Can withstand a humidity of up to 95%.

Power supply requirements: Usually, a 24V DC power supply is used for power supply. The voltage range is generally 16-30VDC, with a maximum voltage of 36VDC.

Voltage drop: Typical value is less than 1.5VDC.

Power module load: less than 10 watts.

Functional characteristics

High reliability: By adopting a triple redundant fault-tolerant structure (TMR), three identical processing channels are integrated into one module. Each channel can independently process input signals and ensure the accuracy and reliability of the output through a voting mechanism. This design can effectively prevent system errors caused by the failure of a single channel, improving the overall availability and stability of the system.

Rich input types: The Triconex 3624 module supports multiple types of input signals, such as digital input, analog input, etc. It can receive various signals from on-site devices, such as switch status and sensor measurement values, providing accurate information for the control system.

High-speed data processing capability: It has a rapid data processing capability, capable of sampling, converting and processing input signals within a short period of time, ensuring that the system can respond promptly to on-site changes and meet the requirements of real-time control.

Diagnostic function: It features a powerful self-diagnostic function, capable of monitoring the module's own working status in real time, including power faults, channel faults, communication faults, etc. It can output diagnostic information through indicator lights or communication interfaces, facilitating maintenance personnel to promptly identify and eliminate faults.

Communication capability: Supports multiple communication protocols, such as HART, Profibus, Modbus, etc., enabling seamless communication with other devices or systems, achieving data sharing and interaction, and facilitating integration into larger-scale automatic control systems.

Application field

Petrochemical industry: In processes such as petroleum refining and chemical production, the Triconex 3624 module can be used to monitor and control various process parameters, such as temperature, pressure, flow rate, liquid level, etc., to ensure the safe and stable operation of the production process and prevent the occurrence of accidents.

In the power industry, it can be used in power facilities such as power plants and substations for the protection, control and monitoring of the power system, such as generator protection, transformer protection, line protection, etc., to ensure reliable power supply to the power system.

Metallurgical industry: In metallurgical processes such as steel production and non-ferrous metal smelting, it can be used to monitor and control the operating status of metallurgical equipment, such as blast furnaces, converters, and rolling mills, to enhance production efficiency and product quality.

Other industrial fields: It is also widely applied in other industrial fields such as papermaking, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, etc., to achieve automatic control and monitoring of the production process, and improve the reliability and consistency of production.
