Product Description
Overview
The Foxboro P0972TQ is a redundant baseplate assembly designed for the Foxboro I/A Series and Evo™ process automation platforms. It provides a secure mechanical and electrical interface for mounting and operating Fieldbus Modules (FBMs), including FBM217, FBM218, and FBM219.
Engineered for redundancy, the P0972TQ enables dual FBM operation, allowing paired modules to deliver continuous, fault-tolerant performance. The assembly manages regulated power distribution, signal routing, and communication bus connectivity between FBMs and the system backplane. Its reliability and robust design make it ideal for critical industrial applications in oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical, and power generation sectors.
