FBM217 P0916CA | Foxboro Compact Discrete Input Module

Description

FBM217 P0916CA | Foxboro Compact Discrete Input Module is a high-performance discrete input interface module designed for industrial automation and distributed control systems (DCS). It features 32 isolated channels, enabling reliable signal collection and processing from multiple discrete sources simultaneously. The module supports a wide range of input voltages, including 15 to 60V DC, 120V AC/125V DC, and 240V AC, with a typical input current of 2.2mA at 30V DC.

For communication, it connects to associated FCM or FCP units via a redundant 2 Mbps module fieldbus, ensuring stable data transmission and system resilience. At 24V DC, it has a maximum power consumption of 3 watts, making it energy-efficient for continuous industrial operation. With compact dimensions of 90 x 90 x 26 millimeters and a weight of 100 grams, it is easy to integrate into existing control setups, and can be mounted on DIN rails or 19-inch racks.

Built with a rugged, compact design, it meets Class G3 harsh environment requirements, suitable for use in demanding industrial settings. As part of the Foxboro I/A Series DCS, it delivers high precision, reliability, and traceability, making it an ideal component for process control applications that require accurate, consistent discrete input monitoring.
