Product Information:

The TC-313-02 is a high-specification three-way local expansion cable assembly (3-way) developed by Rockwell Automation subsidiary ICS Triplex specifically for trusted-critical control and safety systems. As the core physical hub of this safety platform's multi-rack topology, its architecture primarily enables local bus interconnection between the T8311 Trusted Expansion Interface module within the main controller rack and the T8310 Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) expansion processors in three external expansion racks.

The TC-313-02's unique three-way branch star/multi-station topology configuration allows a single master control core to simultaneously and efficiently transmit deterministic safety data synchronously to three lower-level distributed I/O racks without latency. This cable assembly meets extremely high heavy-duty industrial protection standards in terms of manufacturing processes and material safety.

The "02" suffix in TC-313-02 indicates that its outer sheath is made entirely of high-specification low-smoke halogen-free (LSZH) flame-retardant material and has passed the IEC 60332-3 Class A vertical beam flame spread test, ensuring that it will not release lethal acidic toxic gases in the event of a fire. Internally, it uses Cat 6 Plus twisted-pair cabling and a robust electromagnetic shielding network, providing excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) immunity.

Information

Overview Manuals Ordering Variables Core Target Industries

Features:

  • Local Expansion Cable Assembly, 3 way
  • It establishes communication connections by bridging an Expander Interface Module (T8311) to a TMR Expander Processor (T8310)
  • Each cable assembly features 96-way type 'C' connectors at both ends to securely connect local expansion modules
The TC-313-02 is a high-precision central control and data transmission module designed specifically for automation and intelligent control in the modern chemical industry. It boasts powerful bidirectional real-time data acquisition and processing capabilities, simultaneously receiving signals from multiple sensors and converting complex field data into standard industrial digital signals. Through its built-in high-speed communication interface, this module can seamlessly connect to host systems, PLC systems, or cloud management platforms, playing a crucial data bridge role in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) architectures.

Furthermore, this module integrates intelligent diagnostics and proactive protection functions, enabling 24/7 monitoring of the operating status of connected equipment. Upon detecting potential faults such as current overload, abnormal voltage, or communication interruption, it immediately triggers hardware-level safety protection mechanisms. Simultaneously, the system uploads accurate fault codes and real-time logs, assisting maintenance personnel in remote and precise troubleshooting, thereby significantly reducing unplanned equipment downtime.

The TC-313-02 ICS Triplex Local Expansion Cable Assembly, 3 way (2m, 2.5m & 3.0m) may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

When procuring this component, the standard integration process requires you to directly append the required length to the part number. The length must be in xmx format, accurate to 0.5 meters. For example:
 
TC-313-02-2m0: Halogen-free, 2.0-meter cable assembly.
TC-313-02-2m5: Halogen-free, 2.5-meter cable assembly.
TC-313-02 is primarily deployed in the following industries where unexpected failures of control systems could lead to catastrophic environmental damage, significant economic losses, or loss of life:
 
1.Oil and Gas (Upstream and Downstream): Deployed on offshore drilling platforms, subsea control facilities, refineries, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) processing plants to connect critical safety shutdown logic in individual control cabinets.
 
2.Chemical and Petrochemical Processing: Used in chemical reactors, ethylene units, and hazardous distillation towers where stringent, uninterrupted process monitoring and automated emergency mitigation are required.
 
3.Power Generation and Utilities: Used in nuclear power plant control rooms, large thermal power plants, and hydroelectric power plants to manage critical inter-rack emergency trip circuits and prevent signal delays.
 
4.Heavy Infrastructure and Mining: Integrated into large, critical ventilation controls, boiler management, and automated machinery safety systems that must remain operational during major hazardous plant outages.
