Product Description

Overview

The Foxboro FBM218 P0922VW is a high-performance redundant analog input and HART® output module designed for the Foxboro I/A Series and Evo™ process automation platforms. It captures standard 4–20 mA signals from field transmitters and sensors, converting them into precise digital data for control and monitoring applications.

Featuring 16 individually isolated input channels and 8 isolated HART output channels, the module ensures exceptional noise immunity, ground loop protection, and reliable signal processing. Redundant operation is supported by pairing two modules, providing fault-tolerant performance for mission-critical industrial environments including oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical, and power generation facilities.

Functional Features

  • Analog Input Channels: 16 isolated inputs with 12-bit A/D conversion and ±0.1% full-scale accuracy for high-precision process monitoring.

  • HART Output Channels: 8 isolated outputs capable of delivering 4–20 mA signals with superimposed HART FSK communication. Each channel has a dedicated FSK modem for two-way digital communication.

  • Redundancy: Dual-module pairing ensures continuous operation with one module acting as master and the other as a tracking module.

  • Electrical Isolation: Channels are galvanically isolated from each other, ground, and module logic, withstanding 600 V AC for one minute without damage.

  • Fieldbus Communication: Redundant 2 Mbps HDLC fieldbus ensures fast and reliable integration with Foxboro FCM or FCP modules.

  • Robust Design: Compact and durable construction suitable for harsh industrial environments (G3-level), with wide operating temperature ranges for both module and termination assembly.
