• Weight: ~1.2kg

5. Function Overview

• System Control: Executes safety logic, manages I/O modules (2700/2755/3002), and coordinates TMR voting

• Communication Gateway: Connects SIS to DCS, SCADA, and third‑party systems via Ethernet/serial

• Data Logging: Supports SOE and historical data for compliance and troubleshooting

• Redundancy Management: Ensures seamless failover between TMR channels; no single point of failure

6. LED Indicators

• PWR (Green): 5VDC backplane power OK

• RUN (Green): Module active, TMR sync normal

• FAULT (Red): CPU/memory/communication fault or voting mismatch

• COM (Yellow): Ethernet/serial communication activity

• I/O (Yellow): I/O module communication status

7. Installation & Configuration

1. Insert 3003 into Trident baseplate full‑size slot (CPU position)

2. Connect Ethernet/serial cables to front‑panel ports

3. Use TriStation 1131 to program safety logic, configure communication protocols, and set SOE

4. Verify: PWR+RUN green; no FAULT red; COM/I/O LEDs reflect activity

8. Typical Applications

• ESD: Emergency shutdown logic, pressure/temperature/level safety loops

• BMS: Burner management, flame safety, fuel gas valve control

• FGS: Fire and gas detection, deluge system control

• Turbine Control: Speed/temperature/pressure monitoring, trip logic

• DCS/SCADA Gateway: SIS‑to‑DCS data exchange, Modbus TCP/RTU communication

9. Maintenance

• Hot‑swap faulty 3003 without downtime

• Check Ethernet/serial cable connections

• Review fault logs and SOE via TriStation

• Compatible with Trident I/O modules (2700/2755/3002)

10. Compatibility
