FOXBORO FBM215 HART® Communication Output Interface Module

Technical Specifications

  • Output Channels:
    • 8 isolated channels, each configurable for:
      • Standard 4–20 mA analog output
      • Digital HART FSK signal (superimposed on 4–20 mA)
  • HART Communication:
    • Built-in FSK modem for each channel for HART protocol compliance.
    • Supports HART universal commands, common-practice commands, and device-specific commands (excluding burst mode).
  • Isolation:
    • Channel-to-channel and channel-to-ground isolation (up to 250 V AC).
  • Response Time:
    • ≤10 ms for analog signals; ≤5 ms for discrete signals.

Description
  • Environmental Tolerance:
    • Operating temperature: -40°C to +85°C.
    • Storage temperature: -40°C to +85°C.
    • Humidity: 5%–95% non-condensing.
  • Power Requirements:
    • Voltage range: 10–30 V DC (some variants support 26–42 V DC).
    • Power consumption: 14 W (typical).
  • Physical Dimensions:
    • Approximately 35 mm (H) × 149 mm (W) × 125 mm (D).
  • Weight: Around 300 g.

Key Features

  • Multi-Signal Support: Combines analog and digital HART signals for versatile field device integration.
  • High Precision: Sigma-delta A/D conversion ensures accurate signal processing.
  • Robust Isolation: Prevents cross-talk and enhances system reliability.
  • HART Protocol Compliance: Enables advanced diagnostics and configuration of smart transmitters.
  • Compact Design: Narrower than standard 200-series FBMs, with a rugged ABS enclosure for harsh environments (up to G3-rated conditions).
  • Hot-Swappable: Modules can be replaced without powering down the system.
  • Diagnostic LEDs: Indicate module status and channel activity.
  • Redundancy Support: Compatible with redundant DCS architectures.

Applications

  • Power Generation: Monitoring and controlling boiler systems, turbines, and generators in thermal and nuclear plants.
  • Petrochemical Industry: Managing pressure, flow, and temperature in refineries and chemical reactors.
  • Water/Wastewater Treatment: Optimizing pump stations, aeration systems, and chemical dosing.
  • Manufacturing Automation: Automating discrete processes in automotive, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical production lines.
  • Oil and Gas: Controlling pipeline valves, compressor stations, and separation equipment.
  • Environmental Monitoring: Tracking temperature changes in buildings, warehouses, or laboratories.
  • Heating Systems: Regulating heating elements based on temperature sensor feedback.
  • Safety Monitoring: Detecting equipment overheating or fire risks in industrial settings.

Additional Notes

  • The FBM215 is part of FOXBORO’s I/A Series DCS ecosystem, ensuring seamless integration with other modules (e.g., FBM201 for analog inputs, FBM242 for discrete outputs).
  • It supports the Foxboro Evo™ control core service system, enabling real-time data exchange with field devices at speeds of up to two digital messages per second per device.
  • The module is backed by FOXBORO’s global service network for maintenance and technical assistance.
