Product Description
The Foxboro FBM216B RH924DT is a redundant HART analog input module designed for the Foxboro I/A Series and EcoStruxure DCS. It provides eight individually isolated input channels capable of reading 4–20 mA analog signals while simultaneously communicating with HART-enabled smart transmitters.
Engineered for critical process control, this module supports paired redundant configurations to ensure continuous operation and fault tolerance. Moreover, the FBM216B enables DCS access to transmitter diagnostics, device configuration, and health monitoring without the need for external multiplexers. Its robust industrial-grade design ensures reliable performance in harsh environments.
The FBM216B is widely deployed in power generation, petrochemical, water treatment, and manufacturing industries, where accurate analog acquisition, advanced device integration, and high system reliability are essential.
