ICS Triplex T8513 Programmable Logic Controller

Overview
The ICS Triplex T8513 is a redundant programmable logic controller (PLC) designed for critical industrial control applications. It is a fault-tolerant system that can continue to operate even if one of its three processing modules fails. The T8513 is ideal for applications where downtime is unacceptable, such as in power plants, chemical plants, and water treatment facilities.
 

Features

1. Triple-modular redundancy: The T8513 is composed of three independent processing modules that execute the same program. If one module fails, the other two modules can continue to operate without interruption.
2. Hot standby: One of the T8513's processing modules can be placed in hot standby mode, which means that it is ready to take over if another module fails. This provides an extra layer of redundancy and ensures that the system is always available.
3. Diagnostics: The T8513 includes comprehensive diagnostics that can detect and isolate faults. This helps to prevent downtime and makes it easier to troubleshoot problems.
