TRICONEX 4000093-145 Industrial Cable Assembly
The TRICONEX 4000093-145 is a high-performance industrial cable assembly specifically engineered for Triconex safety instrumented systems (SIS). As an integral part of Schneider Electric's Triconex product line, it is designed to meet the rigorous requirements of safety-critical industrial applications, ensuring reliable signal transmission and system integrity in harsh operating environments.
Specifications
The cable assembly features a gold-plated nickel contact surface, which enhances conductivity and corrosion resistance, extending the service life even in humid or corrosive industrial settings. It supports a rated current of 300 milliamps maximum, with a propagation delay of 4.79 nanoseconds per meter, ensuring fast and accurate signal transmission between Triconex modules.
The operating temperature range is from -25°C to +105°C, allowing it to adapt to extreme temperature fluctuations in various industrial sites. The cable bending radius is less than 2.5mm, providing flexibility for installation in limited spaces within control cabinets. It is fully RoHS compliant, adhering to international environmental standards.
Performance Features
Designed to work seamlessly with Triconex triple modular redundancy (TMR) systems, the 4000093-145 ensures uninterrupted signal transmission even if a single component malfunctions, enhancing overall system reliability. It has strong anti-interference capabilities, effectively shielding external electromagnetic interference to maintain signal stability in complex industrial electrical environments.
The cable assembly adopts a high-quality insulation material, with an electrical isolation performance that meets industrial safety standards, preventing short circuits and ensuring operational safety. Its robust construction enables it to withstand frequent vibration and mechanical impact, making it suitable for long-term use in harsh industrial conditions.
Working Principle
The TRICONEX 4000093-145 acts as a connecting bridge between Triconex control modules and field devices. It transmits control signals, feedback data, and power between different components of the safety instrumented system, ensuring coordinated operation of the entire system. The gold-plated contacts minimize signal loss during transmission, while the optimized cable structure reduces signal attenuation, ensuring that the system receives accurate and real-time data.
Precautions
During installation, ensure that the cable is not stretched or twisted excessively to avoid damaging the internal conductors. The bending radius should not exceed the specified limit to prevent insulation cracking. Avoid installing the cable near high-temperature heat sources or corrosive chemicals, and regularly inspect the contact points for signs of wear or corrosion to maintain optimal performance.
When replacing the cable assembly, ensure that the power supply of the related system is turned off to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage. Use matching connectors during installation to ensure a tight and secure connection, avoiding poor contact caused by improper installation.
This cable assembly is widely used in safety-critical applications that require SIL3 certification in accordance with IEC61508:2010. In the oil and gas industry, it is applied in oil well control, pipeline monitoring, and refinery automation systems, ensuring the safe operation of key processes.
In the power industry, it is used in power plant automation, substation control systems, and transmission line monitoring equipment, providing reliable signal connections for stable power supply. Additionally, it is suitable for chemical processing plants, nuclear power facilities, and railway signal systems, where high reliability and safety are paramount.
