ICS TRIPLEX T8110B Tricon Tri-Plex Redundant Controller Module
Product Overview：ICS TRIPLEX T8110B
The ICS TRIPLEX T8110B Tricon Tri-Plex Redundant Controller Module is a high-reliability safety instrumented system (SIS) component designed for critical industrial applications requiring fail-safe operation. As the core controller of ICS Triplex’s Tricon Series, this module employs a unique triple modular redundancy (TMR) architecture, integrating three independent processor channels into a single unit to deliver unparalleled fault tolerance and diagnostic coverage.
Engineered to meet IEC 61508 Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL 3) and ISA 84.00.07 standards, the T8110B ensures continuous operation by voting on data from its three identical channels, eliminating single points of failure. It supports real-time data processing, advanced control algorithms, and seamless integration with I/O modules (e.g., T9401B analog input module), making it ideal for emergency shutdown systems (ESD), burner management systems (BMS), and critical process control in hazardous environments. The module’s hot-swappable design and -40°C to 70°C operating range further enhance its suitability for harsh industrial settings, such as offshore platforms and petrochemical plants.
In automation systems, the T8110B acts as the brain of a triple-redundant control network, providing deterministic control with sub-millisecond cycle times. Its Tricon Configuration Studio software enables intuitive programming in ladder logic, structured text, or function block diagram (FBD), while built-in diagnostics continuously monitor channel health, ensuring compliance with international safety standards. By combining high-speed processing with robust redundancy, the T8110B minimizes downtime, protects personnel, and safeguards assets in mission-critical operations.

Key Features and Advantages：ICS TRIPLEX T8110B
Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR): The T8110B’s core architecture ensures fault tolerance by comparing outputs from three independent channels. If a single channel fails, the module continues operating with the majority vote, preventing unexpected shutdowns and ensuring continuous process control. This design meets the highest safety requirements for industries where system failure could lead to catastrophic consequences.
Hot-Swappable Design: The module can be replaced without powering down the system, minimizing downtime during maintenance or upgrades. This feature is critical for live industrial environments, allowing technicians to service the controller without interrupting operations.
Advanced Diagnostics and Compliance: Built-in self-diagnostics monitor each channel’s health, providing real-time status updates via LED indicators and diagnostic software. The T8110B complies with ATEX, IECEx, and CSA standards for use in explosive atmospheres, ensuring regulatory compliance in global markets.
Scalable and Flexible Integration: Compatible with ICS Triplex’s extensive range of I/O modules (e.g., T9200B digital input/output modules) and communication gateways (e.g., T9861B Ethernet interface), the T8110B supports scalable system designs. It integrates seamlessly with SCADA and DCS systems, enabling centralized monitoring and remote diagnostics.
High-Speed Processing: With a maximum scan time of 1 ms for typical applications, the T8110B delivers rapid response to process changes, making it suitable for high-speed control loops and safety-critical shutdowns.
