Foxboro P0916AA Analog Input Module

Model Series: P09 Series — I/A Series Analog Input
Manufacturer: Foxboro (Schneider Electric / Invensys)

Product Overview:
The P0916AA is a 16-channel analog input module for the Foxboro I/A Series DCS. It accepts 4–20 mA, 2-wire loop-powered signals from field transmitters. The “AA” variant is configured for standard 4–20 mA inputs with auto-zero and auto-span calibration capabilities.

Structural Features:

  • Plug-in module for I/A Series I/O carrier
  • 16 screw-clamp terminal blocks with channel ID labels
  • Per-channel LED status indicators
  • Backplane connector for I/A Series carrier bus
  • Compact design: 16 channels in single carrier slot

Functional Features:

  • Auto-zero calibration via software command
  • Auto-span calibration via software or HART communicator
  • Per-channel programmable damping (0.1–10 sec)
  • Fail-safe options: Hold Last, Substitute Value, Zero
  • Supports HART 5/7 transparent pass-through for smart transmitters

Working Principle:
Each channel uses a 250 Ω precision resistor to convert the 4–20 mA signal to a 1–5 VDC voltage. This is digitized by a 16-bit successive approximation A/D converter. The digital value is transmitted to the I/A Series controller via the backplane at 10 Hz. HART communication is coupled onto the same loop and passed through the module to the controller.

Advantage Highlights:

  • 16 channels maximizes I/O density per carrier slot
  • Auto-calibration reduces commissioning time
  • HART pass-through provides full smart transmitter diagnostics
  • ±0.1% accuracy suitable for most process control applications

Applicable Industries:
Oil & Gas, Chemical, Power Generation, Water/Wastewater, Pharmaceuticals, Food & Beverage

Installation Requirements:

  • Install in I/A Series I/O carrier slot
  • Use shielded twisted-pair cable for all inputs
  • Ensure 2-wire loop power is provided by the module (verify 24 VDC present)
  • Configure per-channel scaling and filtering in I/A Series software
  • Perform zero calibration with input terminals shorted

Usage Precautions:

  • Do not exceed 600 Ω total loop resistance
  • Do not apply external voltage to input terminals
  • Verify HART communication for each smart transmitter
  • Recalibrate at 12-month intervals or after any wiring change
