TRICONEX 2553

Below is the standardized English technical documentation for the TRICONEX 2553 24-channel discrete input module, a core component of TRICONEX TMR (Triple Modular Redundancy) safety instrumented systems (SIS), designed for reliable acquisition of safety-critical discrete signals in industrial processes.

TRICONEX 2553 24-Channel Discrete Input Module; TMR Safety System DI Card for 24 V DC Signal Acquisition (TRICONEX by Schneider Electric Process Safety).

The TRICONEX 2553 is a rugged, 24-channel discrete input module engineered for TRICONEX TMR safety controllers, targeting high-risk industrial applications such as oil & gas refining, chemical processing, power generation, and petrochemical plant operations. It is specialized in acquiring 24 V DC discrete signals from field devices (e.g., limit switches, pressure switches, proximity sensors, emergency stop buttons), converting them into digital data for processing by the TMR safety controller.

Built on TRICONEX’s TMR architecture, the module supports triple modular redundancy to eliminate single points of failure—each input channel’s data is cross-validated across three redundant modules with majority voting logic, ensuring data integrity and system availability even if one module malfunctions. Key features include isolated input channels to prevent cross-channel interference and ground loops, hot-swappable design for online maintenance without SIS shutdown, and built-in diagnostic functions for real-time monitoring of channel health (e.g., open-circuit detection, signal loss alarms).

The TRICONEX 2553 is compatible with TRICONEX 3000, 4000, and 5000 series TMR safety controllers, and complies with global safety standards (e.g., IEC 61508 SIL 3) to meet the strict requirements of safety instrumented systems. It is ideal for applications where reliable discrete signal acquisition and fault detection are critical to triggering safety interlocks, shutdown sequences, and process alarms.
