PI3381

PI3381 (TRICONEX Tricon TMR Pulse Input Module) Model: PI3381 Brand: TRICONEX (Schneider Tricon SIS System) Position: Tricon system TMR triple-redundant high-speed pulse input card, specifically designed for high-precision pulse signal acquisition such as rotational speed, flow rate, frequency, gear speed measurement, etc. It is SIL3 certified, 24-bit high precision, 6-channel isolation, and supports magnetic-electric / active sensors.

Description

I. Core Positioning

PI3381 is a dedicated pulse input I/O module for the Tricon SIS system, installed in the I/O slots of the mainframe / expansion frame; it adopts TMR triple redundancy, with three-channel synchronous sampling + hardware voting, responsible for rotational speed (turbo / compressor), flow rate (pulse flow meter), frequency, gear position counting, and is the core acquisition card for the safety monitoring of critical rotating equipment in high-risk industries, an indispensable SIL3-level pulse measurement card.
