Foxboro I/A Series|P0926GV| FBM231 | Field Device System Integrator Module
Overview
The Foxboro I/A Series FBM231 P0926GV Field Device System Integrator Module is designed to ensure redundancy at the Fieldbus Module (FBM) level. A pair of FBM231 modules work together, with one acting as the Master and the other as the Tracker. Field wiring is connected to two termination assemblies to provide redundant communication paths.
Environmental Specifications
- Operating Temperature: -20 to +70°C (-4 to +158°F)
- Relative Humidity: 5 to 95% (noncondensing)
- Storage Temperature: -40 to +70°C (-40 to +158°F)
- Contamination: Suitable for use in Class G3 (Harsh) environments as defined in ISA Standard S71.04, based on exposure testing according to EIA Standard 364-65, Class III.
Physical Specifications
- Mounting: The FBM231 mounts on a Modular Baseplate, which can be installed horizontally or vertically on a DIN rail. It can also be mounted horizontally in a 19-inch rack using a mounting kit.
-
