Product Details: Triconex 8311 Power Module

The Triconex 8311 Power Module is a key component in the Tricon system, providing reliable and efficient power conversion and management. Each Tricon chassis is equipped with two power modules, ensuring redundancy and high availability. These modules convert line power into DC power suitable for powering all the Tricon modules, maintaining the system's operational stability and integrity.


Key Specifications:

Feature Specification
Isolation >1000 VAC or 1500 VDC (Input to Output)
Input Terminations Protected by safety cover, accepts three 12-gauge wires (3.310mm²): neutral, hot, and protective earth
Over-Temperature Sensor Temperature warning monitor triggers at >181°F (83°C); typically at ambient temperature of 140°F (60°C) or higher
Alarm Contacts Normally open, normally closed, and common; each contact supports 120 VAC @ 1 amp; accepts 12-gauge wire
Input Power Required 240 watts minimum per power module
Output Power 175 watts at 140°F (60°C) ambient temperature
Output Voltage 6.5 VDC, ±1% under all operating conditions
Output Current 27 amps maximum at 140°F (60°C) ambient

Model Comparison:

Power Module 8310 8311 8312
Chassis Type Main/Expansion/RXM Main/Expansion/RXM Main/Expansion/RXM
Nominal Voltage 120 VAC/VDC 24 VDC 230 VAC
Input VAC 85-140 V @ 47-63 Hz n/a 185-285 V
Input VDC 95-180 V 22-31 V n/a
Fuse Rating 5 amps, time-delay 15 amps, time-delay 2.5 amps, time-delay
Output Hold Time 20 ms minimum 2.8 ms minimum 20 ms minimum
Diagnostic Indicators PASS, FAULT, ALARM, TEMP, BAT LOW PASS, FAULT, ALARM, TEMP, BAT LOW PASS, FAULT, ALARM, TEMP, BAT LOW

Key Features & Advantages:

  • Redundant Power Supply: Each Tricon chassis comes with two power modules, ensuring that the system continues to function even if one module fails.

  • Online Replaceable: The 8311 Power Module can be replaced without taking the system offline, allowing for minimal disruption and increased system uptime.

  • High Reliability: The power module provides stable DC power to all Tricon modules, with a robust alarm and diagnostic system to monitor the power supply's health and ensure continuous operation.

  • Temperature Monitoring: The over-temperature sensor triggers a warning if the internal temperature exceeds 181°F (83°C), which typically happens when ambient temperatures reach 140°F (60°C) or higher, ensuring the system stays within safe operating conditions.

  • Versatile Compatibility: The 8311 Power Module is compatible with Main, Expansion, and Remote Expansion chassis configurations, making it versatile for various system sizes and requirements.

  • Compact and Lightweight: Weighing just 7.2 lbs (3.3 kg), the power module is compact and easy to integrate into the Tricon system.


Diagnostic & Alarm Functions:

The 8311 Power Module is equipped with a comprehensive diagnostic and alarm system to ensure operational integrity:

  • PASS: Indicates normal operation.
  • FAULT: Triggers when there is a critical failure, requiring immediate attention.
  • ALARM: Alerts users to potential issues that may impact performance, such as low battery or over-temperature conditions.
  • TEMP: Monitors the temperature of the power module.
  • BAT LOW: Warns when the battery charge is low, indicating the need for replacement.
