Features:

  • Main Processor Modules
  • Main Processors provide 16 megabytes of DRAM
  • Used for the control program, sequence-of-events data, I/O data, diagnostics and communication buffers
Model 3008 Main Processors (MP) are available for Tricon v9.6 and later systems. Main Processors provide 16 megabytes of DRAM, Used for the control program, sequence-of-events data, I/O data, diagnostics and communication buffers.

Three MPs must be installed in the Main Chassis of every Tricon system. Each MP independently communicates with its I/O subsystem and executes the user-written control program.

The 3008 Invensys Triconex Main Processor Modules may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
Invensys Triconex 3008 Main Processor Modules manual(Datasheets), Link Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
Extensive diagnostics validate the health of each MP, I/O module and communication channel. Transient faults are recorded and masked by the hardware majority-voting circuit. Persistent faults are diagnosed and the errant module is hot-replaced. 
Emergency Shutdown (ESD) System: Serves as the last line of defense, safely shutting off process valves in hazardous chemical infrastructure.
Fire and Gas (F&G) System: Quickly verifies detector inputs and initiates local mitigation procedures.
Steam Turbine and Compressor Control System: Controls speed limits and overspeed trip parameters for large rotating equipment.
Boiler Management System (BMS): Ensures safe ignition, operation, and fuel isolation of utility boiler units.

Ask our team:

  • How does the 3008 achieve deterministic real-time execution of a safety instrumented system?
    The 3008 uses synchronous parallel processing, combined with high-speed inter-module communication and a real-time running kernel, to ensure predictable scan times and deterministic logic execution, which is critical for SIL-level applications.
  • Why is the 3008 particularly suitable for safety instrumented system (SIS) deployments in high-risk industries?
    The 3008 is designed specifically for Safety Integrity Level (SIL) environments. Its fault-tolerant design, comprehensive self-diagnostic capabilities, and continuous health monitoring enable safe shutdown under hazardous operating conditions.
  • How does the 3008 perform online diagnostics and fault isolation without interrupting operation?
    The 3008 integrates advanced self-test procedures, inter-channel comparisons, and real-time difference detection, enabling it to isolate faults and maintain operational continuity without downtime.
  • What communication functions does the 3008 provide for integration into distributed control environments?
    The 3008 supports high-integrity communication with peer modules and external systems through redundant communication paths, enabling seamless integration into distributed control and security networks.
  • What environmental and industrial robustness features does the 3008 possess?
    The 3008 is designed for reliable operation in harsh industrial environments, including temperature variations, electrical noise, and vibration, ensuring reliable performance in critical process environments.
