Information About FBM217
The FBM217 is a high-density digital input module from Foxboro’s Fieldbus I/O series, supporting up to 32 input channels. It is built to withstand Class G3 environmental conditions and includes visual indicators for each input. Designed for use within modular DIN-rail baseplates, the module supports both single and redundant configurations without the need to disconnect field wiring during replacement. It operates within Foxboro DCS architectures and integrates smoothly with software like System Manager and Control Core Services.
Key Features:
- 32 Input Channels: Supports up to 32 discrete signals across multiple voltage ranges including 15–60 VDC, 120/125 VDC, and 240 VAC.
- Redundant Module Support: Easily configured for redundancy with adjacent module pairing and adapter connectors.
- SOE and Logic Capabilities: Executes ladder logic, pulse count, and event sequence recording with configurable input filter and fail-safe options.
- High Environmental Tolerance: Suitable for G3-level enclosures, with protection against harsh industrial conditions.
- Hot-Swappable Design: Allows module replacement without disconnecting power or communication lines.
- Integrated Status LEDs: Red and green LEDs indicate power and signal activity for visual diagnostics.
- Fieldbus Communication: Compatible with 2 Mbps Fieldbus networks, automatically switching paths if failure occurs.
- Mounting Flexibility: Installs on modular DIN-rail baseplates supporting up to eight FBM units.
The FBM217 delivers the reliability and precision required for high-density digital signal acquisition in demanding control systems.
