MeloAuto-Trusted PLC & DCS Parts Supplier
The Compact FBM217 is designed with 32 input channels, accepting signals from 2-wire DC voltage sources. It is part of the Foxboro Control Processor (FCP) or ZCP systems, converting field sensor signals for seamless integration. The module supports multiple voltage types, including 15-60 V DC, 120 V AC/125 V DC, and 240 V AC.
It operates as a standalone unit or in a redundant configuration. In redundancy mode, both modules validate and select the best input based on signal quality, ensuring uninterrupted system operation.
Key Features
- 32 Discrete Inputs:
It offers 32 channels to handle various industrial needs. - Voltage Range:
The module supports 15-60 V DC, 120 V AC, and 240 V AC, making it suitable for diverse field applications. - Redundant Configuration:
For critical applications, redundancy provides high reliability. In this configuration, two modules work together, ensuring that the system automatically selects the best input signal. - Rugged and Compact Design:
The module’s ABS exterior ensures durability, while the compact design fits into tight spaces, offering resistance to harsh environments. - Visual Indicators:
It includes red/green LEDs for module status and 32 blue LEDs to display input channel statuses. This makes monitoring easy. - Flexible Filter Time:
The filter time is customizable, with options ranging from no filtering to 32 milliseconds, adapting to different signal types. - Failsafe Configuration:
In case of faults, users can configure the module to default to a safe state, ensuring reliable operation.
Sequence of Events (SOE)
The Sequence of Events (SOE) software provides detailed logs of digital input events. SOE records time-stamped events with accuracy down to 1 millisecond. For systems that require GPS synchronization, SOE ensures precise event recording across multiple processors.
Fieldbus Communication
The FBM217 communicates via 2 Mbps Fieldbus. It can switch between paths A and B, ensuring continued communication if one path fails.
The redundant fieldbus feature provides additional reliability, allowing the system to keep functioning even if one communication path is disrupted.
