TRICON redundant fault-tolerant control systems provide an optimal choice for critical controls that require maximum safety and continuous production in industrial processes. Leading companies in chemical, petroleum, natural gas, paper, and electric energy have successfully used TRICON fault-tolerant control systems to improve safety, increase production, and reduce stops.
TRICON is the most modern fault-tolerant controller based on triple module redundancy (TMR) architecture. It integrates three separate, parallel control systems (each called a branch circuit) and extensive diagnostics into one system, providing highly complete, error-free, uninterrupted process operation with three-by-two voting without a single point of failure leading to system failure.
