Description
TC-511-01-4M5: Product Overview
The ICS Triplex TC-511-01-4M5 is a shielded interface cable assembly designed for the Trusted TMR system platform, providing the critical connection between analog input modules and field termination assemblies. This cable serves as the signal pathway for analog measurement signals from field transmitters to the system’s triple modular redundant input modules, ensuring signal integrity for critical process variables such as pressure, temperature, level, and flow. The 4.5-meter length provides flexibility in control cabinet layout while maintaining the signal quality required for accurate process measurement.
The cable assembly features high-density 96-pin connectors at both ends, specifically engineered to mate with the corresponding connectors on Trusted system analog input modules and termination units. The internal construction utilizes individually shielded twisted pairs for each signal channel, providing excellent noise immunity in electrically noisy industrial environments. The shielding is continuous throughout the cable length and properly terminated at both connectors to maintain the system’s electromagnetic compatibility specifications. This design minimizes crosstalk between channels and protects low-level analog signals from interference.
As part of the Trusted system’s modular architecture, this cable enables physical separation between the sensitive electronic modules in the chassis and the field wiring termination points. This separation allows maintenance personnel to work on field wiring without exposing the analog input modules to potential damage from electrostatic discharge or wiring errors. The extended 4.5-meter length accommodates control cabinet designs where modules need to be located at a distance from termination assemblies for optimal space utilization or thermal management.

Core Features & Customer Value
Enhanced Signal Integrity: The cable’s construction with individually shielded twisted pairs provides exceptional noise immunity, which is critical for accurate transmission of low-level analog signals from field transmitters. The shielding effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference from power cables, motor drives, and other noise sources commonly found in industrial environments. This ensures that the analog measurements received by the input modules accurately represent the process conditions, supporting reliable control and safety system decisions.
Flexible Cabinet Layout: The 4.5-meter length provides significant flexibility in control cabinet design, allowing engineers to optimize the placement of system components for maintenance access, heat dissipation, and space utilization. This extended length enables separation between sensitive electronic modules and field termination areas where wiring activities are frequent, reducing the risk of damage to expensive system components during maintenance operations.
Robust Industrial Construction: Designed for harsh industrial environments, the cable assembly withstands temperature extremes, mechanical stress, and repeated connection cycles. The connectors feature secure locking mechanisms to prevent accidental disconnection from vibration or incidental contact. The durable cable jacket resists oils, chemicals, and abrasion, ensuring long-term reliability with minimal maintenance requirements.
In process control systems for refineries and chemical plants, the cable connects analog input modules to termination assemblies where 4-20mA signals from pressure, level, and temperature transmitters are terminated. The extended length allows optimal cabinet layout while maintaining signal integrity for precise process control.
For safety instrumented systems in power generation facilities, the cable provides the interface between analog input modules and safety-rated transmitters monitoring critical parameters such as turbine bearing temperatures, pressure differentials, and vibration levels. The noise immunity ensures reliable operation in electrically noisy generator environments.
In water and wastewater treatment facilities, the cable interfaces with analog input modules processing signals from pH sensors, flow meters, and chemical analyzers. The extended length accommodates large control panels where components are distributed for optimal maintenance access.
