HIMA F-3113 | 8-Channel Output Amplifier Module for Safety

Product Description
The HIMA F3113 is a high-performance 8-channel output amplifier module designed by HIMA Paul Hildebrandt GmbH for safety-critical automation systems. It is part of the Planar F system architecture and is widely applied in industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, power generation, and railway automation.

Each of the eight output channels drives actuators, including valves, solenoids, motors, and indicator lights, while providing electrical isolation to maintain signal integrity. Moreover, the module features short-circuit protection, line-break diagnostics, and output currents up to 500 mA per channel, with an internal voltage drop of no more than 2 V at full load. This ensures reliable and precise operation in critical environments.

Certified SIL 3 according to IEC 61508, the F3113 supports redundant and high-availability configurations in safety instrumented systems. Its compact form factor and robust construction allow installation in confined racks while maintaining durability under harsh industrial conditions.
