Features:

  • Enables long-distance Expander Bus extension up to 10 km via single mode fibre optic cable.
  • Supports independent operation with dual 24 Vdc diode ORed power supply architecture.
  • Designed for DIN rail mounting with SC-type fibre connectors for Tx and Rx channels.
ICS Triplex T8314C plays an important role in distributed Trusted TMR systems where controller and expander chassis must be physically separated. By enabling fibre-based communication, ICS Triplex T8314C allows system expansion across large industrial sites without compromising signal stability. This capability is particularly valuable in process plants and large-scale automation environments. The unit supports flexible system layout while maintaining reliable data exchange.

ICS Triplex T8314C integrates fibre optic transmission technology to convert electrical Expander Bus signals into optical form. The signal path includes isolation, filtering, and termination stages to maintain communication quality throughout transmission. At the remote side, the signal is converted back into electrical form for processing by the Expander Processor Module. This structured conversion process ensures consistent communication across extended distances.

ICS Triplex T8314C is engineered for practical installation inside control cabinets using DIN rail mounting. It supports both horizontal and vertical mounting positions depending on cabinet design requirements. With its low power consumption and independent operating design, ICS Triplex T8314C can be replaced without interrupting system operation. This makes it suitable for high-availability industrial control systems where uptime is critical.

The T8314C ICS Triplex Trusted Fibre TX/RX Unit may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

  • Electrical Isolation: Utilizes the inherent non-conductive properties of optical fiber to provide megaohm-level high-voltage electrical isolation to completely eliminate ground loop interference.
  • Physical Surge Protection: Blocks surge currents caused by lightning strikes or industrial power grid failures from entering the core Trusted TMR controller.
  • Intrinsically Safe Explosion-Proof: Optical signal transmission eliminates the risk of electrical sparks, perfectly meeting the stringent requirements of intrinsically safe explosion-proof standards in hazardous areas.
  • Sheath Tensile Strength: The interface is matched with thickened tensile and compressive fiber optic clamps to ensure the stability of the physical link under harsh mechanical vibration environments.
  • Bidirectional Transmission/Reception: The module board integrates independent transmit (TX) and receive (RX) channels to achieve delay-free deterministic bidirectional data transmission.
  • Wavelength Stability: Built-in high-performance photoelectric conversion chips maintain a constant emission wavelength, significantly reducing signal attenuation during long-term operation.
  • Plug and Play: The hardware circuitry features adaptive baud rate recognition technology, allowing for easy access to secure bus networks without complex software configuration.
  • Low-Power Operation: An optimized low-power optical drive architecture effectively reduces module heat generation and significantly extends the average lifespan of the device.
  • Cross-Plant Remote Transmission: Used to connect different control rooms several kilometers apart within chemical plants or metallurgical enterprises to achieve distributed data centralization.
  • Strong Electromagnetic Interference Environments: Deployed in industrial sites with strong electromagnetic fields, such as large substations and high-voltage frequency converter rooms, to ensure error-free transmission of safe signals.
  • Long-Distance I/O Expansion: Utilizes expansion chassis to establish remote I/O links in the ESD safety control system of long-distance oil and gas pipeline pressurization stations.
  • High-risk material storage tank area: Provides absolutely isolated data communication protection for the surrounding safety monitoring system of flammable and explosive gas and chemical storage tank areas.
Description
ICS Triplex T8314C operates as a Trusted fibre Transmitter/Receiver unit designed to extend the Trusted Expander Bus beyond standard cabinet distances. It supports system architectures where a Trusted Expander Chassis must be installed remotely from the main controller, ensuring stable communication across long distances. By converting copper-based differential signals into fibre optic transmission, ICS Triplex T8314C enables reliable signal transport over a single mode fibre link.

The unit is capable of extending communication distances up to 10 km using fibre optic cable. ICS Triplex T8314C processes signals through a conversion stage that transforms PECL electrical signals from the Expander Interface Module into optical signals, which are then transmitted and reconverted at the remote end. This structure ensures consistent data integrity between controller and expander systems, even in distributed installations.

ICS Triplex T8314C operates within a voltage range of 18 Vdc to 32 Vdc and has a maximum power consumption of 1.7 W. It provides a transmitter power of -15 dBm minimum and receiver sensitivity of -28 dBm, supporting stable optical performance. The design includes SC-type fibre connectors for Tx and Rx channels, enabling structured dual-fibre communication paths for system reliability.

ICS Triplex T8314C is designed for DIN rail mounting and can be installed in horizontal or vertical orientation inside control cabinets. It operates in environments from 0 °C to +60 °C, with storage and transport capability from -25 °C to +70 °C. Relative humidity tolerance ranges from 10% to 95% non-condensing, making ICS Triplex T8314C suitable for industrial automation environments requiring long-distance and resilient communication links.
