The T8461 is a high-integrity digital output module for the ICS Triplex Trusted Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) platform. Designed for critical control applications requiring SIL 3 safety compliance, it features a fault-tolerant architecture with three independent sub-modules that vote on output states. This ensures that a single hardware failure cannot trigger a spurious trip or compromise safety functions.
Supporting both 24 Vdc and 48 Vdc outputs, the T8461 is suitable for a wide range of industrial safety loops, including solenoids, relays, and motor starters.

The T8461 is widely deployed in high-reliability safety-critical environments, including:
Emergency Shutdown (ESD) systems
Fire & Gas (F&G) detection systems
Burner Management Systems (BMS)
Offshore oil platforms, nuclear power plants, and chemical processing facilities
Its ability to handle 48 Vdc outputs makes it ideal for long-distance field wiring and upgrades to legacy infrastructure.
How does the TMR voting work in this module?
The T8461 employs a "Two-out-of-Three" (2oo3) hardware voting scheme. Even if one internal processing path fails, the output maintains the correct state, allowing online repair without interrupting operations.
Does it support line monitoring?
Yes. The module can detect both open circuits and short circuits in field wiring, providing detailed diagnostic feedback to the Trusted controller for rapid troubleshooting.
