Triconex  4351B Tricon Communication Module (TCM)

Part number: 4351B

Manufacturer:TRICONEX

Product Description:Communication Module

4351B is a communication module used in Triconex DCS (Distributed Control System) for industrial process control. This module contains four serial ports and two network ports, and supports various protocols including TriStation, Modbus, TCP/IP, ICMP, SNTP, TSAA, and Trimble GPS. The module is designed with triple modular redundancy (TMR) structure, which provides high reliability and fault-tolerance for industrial applications .

Triconex 4351B is a communication module that connects Triconex controllers and other devices in a distributed control system. It provides serial and network communication interfaces, which allow Triconex controllers to communicate with other controllers or devices in the system. The module supports multiple protocols, including TriStation, Modbus, TCP/IP, ICMP, SNTP, TSAA, and Trimble GPS. TriStation is a proprietary protocol used by Triconex controllers to exchange data and commands. Modbus is an open protocol used in industrial automation to connect devices such as PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) and HMIs (Human-Machine Interfaces). TCP/IP is a standard protocol used in computer networks to provide communication services between devices. ICMP is a protocol used for error reporting and diagnostics. SNTP is a protocol used for time synchronization. TSAA is a protocol used for IP multicast. Trimble GPS is a protocol used for GPS positioning.

One of the advantages of Triconex 4351B is its triple modular redundancy (TMR) structure. TMR is a technique used in safety-critical systems to provide high reliability and fault tolerance. In TMR, three identical modules are used to perform the same function in parallel. The outputs of the modules are compared, and if any module produces an output that differs from the others, it is considered faulty and its output is discarded. The other two modules continue to operate, providing fault tolerance and high reliability. TMR is widely used in industrial process control systems, where safety and reliability are critical .
