Description
1. Product Description
TRICONEX 4000093-110N is a high-reliability Digital Input Module (DIM) designed to interface with industrial control systems, particularly in safety-critical environments requiring precise signal monitoring and fault tolerance. As part of TRICONEX’s Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) architecture, this module ensures continuous operation by processing inputs through three independent channels, with a voting mechanism to resolve discrepancies and maintain system integrity.
The TRICONEX 4000093-110N supports 115V DC input signals, making it suitable for applications where higher voltage levels are required, such as motor control, valve actuation, or emergency shutdown systems in industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation. Its ruggedized design withstands extreme temperatures (-40°C to +75°C), high vibrations, and electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring stable performance in harsh industrial settings.
With hot-swappable capabilities, the TRICONEX 4000093-110N allows technicians to replace the module without powering down the system, minimizing downtime during maintenance. It integrates seamlessly with TRICONEX’s Tricon Vx and Trident platforms, supporting real-time data transmission and diagnostics for proactive system management.

3. Advantages and Features
1. TMR Technology: The TRICONEX 4000093-110N leverages triple modular redundancy to provide fault tolerance, ensuring system continuity even if one channel fails. This design achieves a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) exceeding 250,000 hours, significantly reducing unplanned downtime.
2. High Voltage Support: Unlike standard 24V modules, the TRICONEX 4000093-110N is engineered for 115V DC inputs, making it ideal for applications requiring direct integration with high-voltage equipment, such as large motors or solenoid valves.
3. Hot-Swappable Design: Technicians can replace the module without system shutdown, cutting maintenance time by up to 60% compared to non-redundant alternatives.
4. Advanced Diagnostics: Built-in self-diagnostic tools monitor channel health in real-time, enabling proactive maintenance and rapid fault isolation. Alarms and status indicators provide immediate feedback on input signal integrity.
5. Environmental Resilience: Resistant to EMI/RFI interference, voltage surges, and extreme temperatures, the module maintains stable performance in explosive atmospheres and high-vibration environments.
4. Application Areas and Use Cases
Industry Applications:
- Oil and Gas: Monitoring high-voltage sensors in offshore platforms, wellhead control systems, and pipeline safety valves.
- Chemical Processing: Emergency shutdown (ESD) systems for hazardous material handling and reactor safety interlocks.
- Power Generation: Turbine protection systems, generator breaker control, and substation automation.
Case Study:
In a large petrochemical plant, the TRICONEX 4000093-110N was deployed to monitor 115V DC signals from pressure sensors in a distillation column. The module’s TMR technology detected a gradual voltage drop in one channel due to a failing sensor, triggering an early warning before a critical process shutdown. This allowed maintenance teams to replace the sensor during a planned outage, avoiding an estimated $1.2 million in production losses.

5. Competitive Comparison
Compared to standard digital input modules, the TRICONEX 4000093-110N stands out for its combination of high voltage compatibility and SIL 3 safety certification. While many competing modules support only 24V inputs or lack redundancy, the TRICONEX 4000093-110N offers both high voltage resilience and triple modular redundancy, making it a preferred choice for safety-critical applications. Its plug-and-play compatibility with TRICONEX systems also reduces integration complexity compared to alternatives requiring extensive firmware modifications.
