Features:
- Flexible Mounting Options for Swing Frame, Fixed Frame, or Panel Rear Installation
- Integrated IMB Backplane Providing 150Mbaud Electrical Interconnection for All Modules
- Module Capacity for Up to Two TMR Processors and Eight I/O or Interface Modules
The T8100C serves as the Trusted Controller Chassis within the ICS TRIPLEX system, providing a robust physical enclosure for all Trusted modules within the control system. It accommodates up to two TMR processor modules and up to eight I/O and/or interface modules, with the inter-module bus (IMB) backplane integrated as part of the chassis to provide the electrical interconnection and other services for the modules. The T8100C supports a maximum IMB data transfer rate of 150Mbaud to ensure high-speed communication between all installed modules. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the T8100C chassis. The T8100C chassis can be either swing frame or fixed frame mounted, and may also be panel (rear) mounted by the addition of a panel mounting kit T8380 that comprises a pair of brackets with rear facing ears.
The T8100C provides essential physical integration and backplane interconnection functions common to the entire Trusted system, and is a critical component of the control architecture, directly affecting the proper, normal operation of the overall TMR control system. One T8100C chassis is required per Trusted controller assembly to house the processor and I/O modules. The T8100C forms the foundational mounting platform for all modules and incorporates the IMB backplane as the central interconnect backbone within the chassis structure.
For dual TMR processor applications, the Trusted system requires a second TMR processor module installed in the T8100C chassis. In addition to single processor operation, the dual configuration also provides redundant processing capability. The Trusted dual processor system executes coordination using the IMB backplane that is part of the T8100C chassis. Using this architecture, the control system continually monitors the status of both processor modules through the IMB. If the system detects that the primary TMR processor module is no longer operating within normal parameters, it will maintain continuous control through the secondary processor module housed within the same T8100C chassis.
The T8100C ICS TRIPLEX Trusted Controller Chassis may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
