Information

Overview Overview Common Applications Product Precautions
The TC-205-01is the first dedicated Remote Intelligent Cable Module (RIM) communication module in the ICS Triplex Trusted Triple Diesel (TMR) system. It is primarily used to connect the Trusted controller to I/O controllers or communication modules in remote operating conditions.   
    • High-speed Sync
    • Multi-layer Shielding
    • Secure Locking
This type of Trusted I/O Companion Slot Cable is designed for use with digital 24 V/120 Vdc or analogue output modules and is suitable for connecting output signals from the module to an internal FTA. Three multi-core cables are used for this application. The chassis end of multi-core 1 is fitted with two 96-way type ‘C’ connectors housed in a double-width hood. The non-chassis end of multi-core 1 is fitted with a 96-way type ‘R’ connector housed in a single-width hood enabling connection to an FTA. The non-chassis end of multi-core 2 is fitted with a 5-way BLZF 3.5 series connector enabling the cable to be terminated at a T8290 Output Power Distribution Unit. This cable is used for field power return. The non-chassis end of multi-core 3 is fitted with a 6-way AMP plug used to connect power to the field from a T8290 or T8297 and is made up of five individual 2.5 mm wires contained within Rilgain sleeving.

LNG Terminals
Used in Fire and Gas (F&G) systems to connect remote gas detector chassis, triggering alarm logic at high speed via the cable when a leak is detected.
 
Gas Turbine Control
Used in Turbomachinery Control (TMC) to connect high-speed communication modules, providing real-time feedback of turbine speed and vibration signals to the main processor.

Nuclear Power
Used in Reactor Protection Systems (RPS) to transmit critical reactor monitoring data between the main control room and remote backup stations, ensuring data synchronization.

Refining & Petrochemical
Used for critical process control, connecting the main processor in the control room to remote interface modules in the field to monitor reactor temperature and pressure.
 
Offshore Oil & Gas
Used in Emergency Shutdown Systems (ESD) to connect remote I/O across different modules, ensuring instant transmission of shut-off commands during wellhead pressure anomalies.

 When using the TC-205-01 cable, strictly adhere to the minimum bend radius specifications and avoid sharp kinks or excessive tension to protect the precision shielding and high-speed signal lines. During installation, ensure the multi-pin connectors at both ends are properly aligned and the locking screws are fully tightened to prevent intermittent communication or bus fault alarms caused by industrial vibration. Additionally, maintain sufficient physical separation from power cables during wiring to eliminate electromagnetic interference and ensure the data integrity of the SIL 3 system.

FAQ View All FAQ

  • What is the TC-205-01?
    The TC-205-01 is a dedicated Remote Interface Module (RIM) communications cable for the ICS Triplex Trusted system, primarily used for high-speed data transmission.
  • What is the primary use of the TC-205-01?
    It is used to connect the main controller chassis to RIM modules on expansion chassis, enabling bus communication between the main system and remote I/O.
  • How to correctly install the TC-205-01?
    Align the dedicated multi-pin connectors at both ends with the chassis interfaces, and ensure the locking screws on both sides are tightened to prevent poor contact.
  • What role does the TC-205-01 play in a safety system?
    It acts as the system's "nerve fiber," responsible for transmitting critical safety data at the SIL 3 level, ensuring remote devices synchronize with the main processor in real-time.
  • Can the TC-205-01 be hot-swapped?
    Not recommended. Although some modules support hot-swapping, removing the communication cable will disconnect the entire expansion chassis, potentially causing the system to enter a safety trip state.
