Brief Introduction to ICS TRIPLEX T9300 Intelligent Safety Controller
In the era of industrial intelligence, ultra-critical facilities—such as smart nuclear power plants, integrated energy hubs, and large-scale carbon capture systems—require safety controllers to be both “ultra-reliable” and “highly intelligent”. The ICS TRIPLEX T9300 is a next-generation flagship safety controller developed for this trend, integrating QMR redundancy, AI full-process prediction, and industrial Internet integration to become the “brain of safe intelligence” for modern industry.
1. Product Overview
The ICS TRIPLEX T9300 is an industrial-grade safety controller with SIL 3 certification, positioned as the top model in the brand’s intelligent series. It is specially designed for large-scale, highly integrated, and intelligent safety instrumented systems (SIS), and is widely used in cutting-edge industrial fields such as smart nuclear power, integrated LNG terminals, and large-scale renewable energy integration projects. Unlike traditional controllers that only respond to faults, the T9300 can realize the whole process of “risk prediction – active pre-control – fault handling – data feedback”.
Its core advantages lie in the innovative “QMR + AI Dual Core” architecture. On the one hand, four 64-bit high-performance processors realize real-time cross-validation to ensure zero failure of safety actions; on the other hand, the dedicated industrial AI chip can learn the historical operation data of the system, identify abnormal trends that are difficult to detect by humans, and trigger pre-control measures in advance. For example, in a smart nuclear power secondary loop system, the T9300 can predict the potential jamming risk of the feedwater valve 5 seconds in advance based on the slight change of vibration frequency, and automatically adjust the valve opening to avoid emergency shutdown.
It also has a full-scenario communication capability, supporting 5G/6G private network, edge computing node connection, and cloud platform interaction at the same time. It can not only realize local independent control, but also upload safety data to the industrial Internet platform for unified management of multi-site safety status. Its modular design supports hot swapping of all components, and the on-site maintenance time is shortened to within 5 minutes, which greatly reduces the impact of maintenance on production.

3. System Integration & Application
The T9300 is the core component of ICS TRIPLEX’s “Intelligent Ultra-Critical Safety System 2.0”, which includes the T9300 controller, redundant I/O modules, 5G/6G communication gateways, edge computing nodes, and cloud AI diagnostic platforms. This system breaks the traditional “independent operation” mode of SIS, and realizes the closed-loop management of “cloud monitoring – edge pre-control – local execution” through the integration of cloud and edge, which is the core support for the safety of intelligent industrial parks.
Take the safety control system of a large-scale integrated energy hub as an example to understand its working process:
-
Thousands of sensors in the natural gas, thermal power, and renewable energy subsystems collect data such as pressure, temperature, and flow in real time, and transmit them to the T9300 through 5G private network encryption.
-
The AI coprocessor of T9300 analyzes the real-time data and historical operation model, predicts that the natural gas pipeline pressure will exceed the safety threshold after 8 seconds, and the four QMR processors verify the risk state at the same time.
-
The controller immediately issues graded commands: first adjust the gas transmission volume through the frequency converter, then send early warnings to the on-site control room and the remote cloud platform, and push the handling plan to the maintenance team’s mobile terminal.
-
During the whole process, the system conducts self-diagnosis every 20ms. If one processor fails, the remaining three will take over seamlessly, and the fault information will be automatically uploaded to the cloud for analysis to avoid similar problems.
This system has become the first choice for global intelligent industrial projects due to its intelligent prediction, efficient integration, and reliable redundancy. The T9300 also supports customized development, and can adjust AI algorithms and I/O configurations according to the special needs of different industries, which has strong scalability.
