Product Name:
ICS Triplex T8160 Safety Module
Product Description:
The T8160 is a high-performance, fault-tolerant, and redundant safety I/O module designed to interface with Triplex control systems. It is commonly used in Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) and other critical infrastructure to monitor and control processes that must meet rigorous safety standards. This module provides reliable and effective protection for personnel, equipment, and the environment by performing advanced monitoring, control, and diagnostic functions.
The T8160 integrates easily into the Triplex TMR (Triple Modular Redundant) architecture, offering high availability and fault tolerance to ensure safety-critical operations can continue without disruption, even in the event of module failure.
