TRICONEX 4210
roduct Name: TRICONEX 4210 Remote Extender Module (RXM)
Product Description: The Triconex 4210 is a Remote Extender Module (RXM) designed to extend the input/output (I/O) capabilities of Triconex safety systems, particularly within the Triconex Trident safety platform. It allows for the remote placement of I/O points, which can reduce wiring costs and simplify installations in large or distributed industrial environments. The 4210 ensures reliable communication between these remote I/O points and the main Triconex safety controller, maintaining high Safety Integrity Levels (SIL), specifically SIL 3 compliance according to IEC 61508. It acts as a repeater and extender of the Tricon I/O bus and provides ground loop isolation. A primary RXM set (consisting of three identical modules) can support up to three remote locations by connecting to three remote RXM sets housed in a remote chassis.
