Product Details:
FOXBORO FBM08/13 is a combined 120VAC discrete input assembly for FOXBORO I/A Series DCS system,consisting of FBM08 main module and FBM13 piggyback expander module. It collects 120VAC contact status signals from field limit switches and relay contacts, expanding the discrete signal acquisition capacity of the DCS rack. This module set adopts channel galvanic isolation and conformal coated PCB, protecting internal electronic components from vibration, dust, humidity and electromagnetic interference in heavy industrial sites. It converts AC on-off signals into digital data and transmits to DCS controller via redundant fieldbus. Built-in continuous self-diagnosis monitors channel and communication status in real time, triggers alarm once faults detected, helping maintenance staff locate wiring faults quickly and reduce plant downtime. This FBM08/13 assembly supports hot swap and is widely used for DCS system maintenance, spare parts replacement and control system retrofit projects. Every FOXBORO FBM08/13 module set passes strict factory testing and calibration before shipment to guarantee stable operation.
