The Triconex 3564 Digital Input Module is a high-integrity input interface designed to serve critical control and safety applications in industrial automation environments. As part of the Triconex Tricon™ safety and control system, the 3564 module plays a vital role in collecting real-time digital signals from field devices and transmitting them securely to the central processing unit (CPU).

This module is engineered with a focus on fault tolerance, offering triple modular redundancy (TMR) to ensure uninterrupted operation even in the event of a hardware failure. Whether used in emergency shutdown systems (ESD), fire and gas systems (F&G), or turbine control, the 3564 provides unmatched reliability and long-term operational confidence.
