T8225

The T8225 is a 250 W, SIL 3‑certified, hot‑swappable power supply module for the ICS Triplex Trusted TMR safety system. It converts redundant AC or DC input power into regulated +24 V DC for system backplanes, controllers, and field I/O, supporting fault‑tolerant, high‑availability operation in safety‑critical applications (ESD, F&G, BMS, turbine control). Architecture: TMR‑compatible, dual redundant inputs/outputs, current sharing

  • Dimensions (H×W×D): 266 mm × 61 mm × 318 mmRockwell Automation

  • Weight: ~3.25 kgRockwell Automation

  • Mounting: Slides into chassis slot guides; front latch secured

  • Terminals:

    • Input: TB1/TB2 (#8 screw terminals, redundant)

    • Output: TB3/TB4 (#6 screw terminals, redundant)

    • Status: J14/J15 (dry contacts for remote alarm)

    • Monitor: J13 (serial diagnostics)


3. Installation

3.1 Chassis & Module Insertion (Hot‑Swap Enabled)

  1. Install the Trusted power chassis (e.g., T8220 series) in a standard 19‑inch rack; secure mounting brackets.

  2. Select an empty single‑width slot; remove the blank panel.

  3. Align T8225 with chassis guides; push firmly until fully seated.

  4. Secure the front latch to lock the module in place.

  5. Repeat for additional modules (up to 3 per chassis for load sharing).

3.2 Wiring (Redundant Inputs/Outputs)

  • Input Power (TB1/TB2): Connect redundant AC or DC sources; use 14–18 AWG stranded wire; torque terminals to 1.2 N·m.

  • Output Power (TB3/TB4): Connect to system backplane and field I/O; use 12–16 AWG stranded wire; torque terminals to 1.5 N·m.

  • Status Contacts (J14/J15): Wire to remote alarm panel (fault = contact closed).

  • Grounding: Connect chassis PE to system earth; field ground isolated from chassis ground.

3.3 Redundancy & Load Sharing

  • Install 2–3 T8225 modules in the same chassis for active‑active current sharing.

  • System automatically balances load; single module failure triggers seamless switchover without downtime.


4. Front Panel Indicators

  • INPUT (Green): Steady = Normal; Flashing = Input fault (loss of one redundant source)

  • OUTPUT (Green): Steady = Normal; Flashing = Overvoltage/undervoltage

  • CURRENT (Yellow): Bar graph = Output current level (0–100 %)

  • FAULT (Red): On = Overcurrent/short‑circuit/overtemperature; Flashing = Internal fault

  • OK (Green): Steady = TMR vote healthy; Flashing = Single‑channel fault


5. Operation

5.1 Normal Operation

  • T8225 operates in redundant, current‑sharing mode; provides stable 24 V DC to system and field devices.

  • Diagnostics continuously monitor input/output voltage, current, temperature, and internal circuits; faults are logged to the system alarm list.

5.2 Fault Tolerance & Hot‑Swap

  • Single Input Fault: System runs on the remaining redundant input; INPUT LED flashes.

  • Single Module Fault: Remaining modules carry full load; FAULT LED on faulty module; OK LED flashes on healthy modules.

  • Hot‑Swap Replacement: Remove faulty module (unlatch, pull out); insert new module; system remains online during swap.


6. Maintenance & Troubleshooting

6.1 Routine Maintenance

  • Quarterly: Inspect seating, latch tightness, and LED status; check terminal torque.

  • Annually: Clean with dry, lint‑free cloth; verify grounding and cable integrity.

  • Diagnostics: Use Trusted Workbench or J13 monitor port to review fault logs and module status.

6.2 Common Faults

  • INPUT LED Flashing: Check redundant input sources; verify wiring and terminal torque.

  • OUTPUT LED Flashing: Measure output voltage; check for overloaded/short‑circuited field wiring.

  • FAULT LED On: Identify overcurrent/short‑circuit via diagnostics; disconnect field wiring and test; check for overtemperature (clean ventilation filters).

  • OK LED Flashing: Single internal channel fault; replace module at next scheduled maintenance.


7. Safety & Compliance

  • Install only in Trusted T8220 series power chassis; use in T8100/T8300 safety systems.

  • Disconnect all power sources before wiring (except hot‑swap module replacement).

  • Use shielded cables for field wiring to reduce EMI; comply with IEC 61000‑6‑2/4.

  • Compliant with: CE, UL, CSA, IEC 61508 (SIL 3), TÜV certified.
