Features:
- Power connections are built into the cable, eliminating separate power wiring. Field power connects at the FTA with voltage-sensitive indicators for each power group.
- Low Smoke Zero Halogen insulation (02) meets IEC 60332-3 Cat A, ensuring safety in fire conditions with reduced toxic emissions.
- Two 96-way Type C connectors (double-width hood) at chassis end
The TC-215-02-4M5 eliminates the need for separate power cabling by integrating power connections directly into the cable architecture. Field power is connected at the FTA end, where voltage-sensitive indicators for each power group provide clear visual status. The 0V connection at the FTA allows the module to reference and measure its output voltage accurately. This reference must connect to the field 0V supply.
The TC-215-02-4M5 uses Low Smoke Zero Halogen insulation (designated 02), which meets IEC 60332-3 Cat A flame retardancy standards. In the event of a fire, LSZH materials produce minimal smoke and no toxic halogen gases, protecting personnel and sensitive equipment. This makes TC-215-02-4M5 ideal for confined spaces such as control cabinets, offshore platforms, and indoor installations where fire safety is critical.
The TC-215-02-4M5 features a specialized connector arrangement: two 96-way Type C connectors housed in a double-width hood at the chassis end, and a single 96-way Type R connector in a single-width hood at the remote FTA end. The multi-core cable is stripped back 1.5 meters at both ends, then shrouded in durable nylon Rilsan sheathing. The sheathing ends are heated or fitted with oversleeving to prevent fraying during installation and maintenance. At both ends, a sheathed braid allows the connector hood to be wired to safety earth.
The TC-215-02-4M5 ICS Triplex Internal Companion Slot cable may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond
End-Of-Life (EOL)by the manufacturer (OEM).

- Upstream Oil & Gas Platforms: Centralized safety monitoring cabinets on offshore oil rigs, floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels, and LNG liquefaction terminals.
- Downstream Refining & Petrochemicals: Critical interlock matrix operations in high-risk environments such as ethylene crackers, hydrocracking reactors, and delayed coking units.
- Nuclear & Power Utilities: Boiler control networks, safety-critical burner management systems (BMS), and peripheral reactor auxiliary protection circuits.
- Zero-Delay Hot-Standby Transmission Efficiency:By physically hard-paralleling the I/O channels of the main and companion modules, the TC-215 allows the active standby card to run real-time hardware diagnostics alongside the primary card.
- Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (LSLH) Safety Compliance (The -02 Suffix):The cable jacket is extruded from premium LSLH (Low Smoke Low Halogen) flame-retardant compound.
- Optimized Footprint and Routing Efficiency (The -4M5 Suffix):The pre-fabricated length is precisely restricted to 4.5 meters (14.8 feet).
- Inside an oil refinery's cracking unit, critical automated depressurization valves (ESD Valves) must remain 100% operational 24/7. The control rack houses two 40-channel Discrete Output modules (e.g., Trusted T8431 DO Module)—one designated as Main and the other as the online Companion standby.
- Offshore drilling platforms prioritize space efficiency and strict marine safety standards. Massive arrays of flame and toxic gas detectors feed into 24V DC Digital Input cards (e.g., Trusted T8403 DI Module) backed up by companion cards to ensure no safety blind spots develop.
- Power plant steam turbine control loops demand trip reaction speeds scaled to the millisecond to prevent catastrophic turbine runaway conditions. Speed sensor processing modules are paired with companion modules for absolute fault tolerance.
