P0913UTC P0913UU-OA | Foxboro | HART Transmitter Interface

Product Overview

The P0913UTC / P0913UU‑OA (Model: P0913UTC) is an industrial-grade universal transmitter interface solution designed for the Foxboro I/A Series Distributed Control System (DCS). This module pair provides high-precision signal acquisition and processing for essential process variables, including pressure, differential pressure, and level measurement.

The P0913UTC (Part Number: P0913UTC) serves as the primary processing unit, managing sensor inputs and executing high-speed signal conversion. It is complemented by the P0913UU-OA (Part Number: P0913UU-OA), which functions as the termination and signal routing assembly. By supporting the HART communication protocol, this module pair enables seamless remote configuration, advanced field device diagnostics, and real-time monitoring. Its ruggedized design is engineered to maintain signal integrity in the harsh electromagnetic and thermal conditions typical of oil & gas refineries, chemical plants, and power generation facilities.
