Foxboro FBM206 P0916CQ Pulse Input Module

Overview

The FBM206 P0916CQ is designed to accept up to eight pulse signals (up to 25 kHz) and transmit these values to the Foxboro DCS (Distributed Control System). It is particularly effective for measuring a machine's rotational speed by processing high-speed pulses from devices such as vortex meters, turbine meters, solid-state contacts, electromechanical contacts, and similar sensors.

Specifications

• Input Channels:
  • Eight configurable pulse input channels
  • Voltage Range: 7 to 27 V DC
• Output Channels:Four 0 to 20 mA analog output channels (specific to the FBM206b variant)
• Pulse Input Rate:Maximum rate of 25 kHz per channel
• Isolation:Each channel is galvanically isolated from other channels and ground
• Environmental Suitability:Rugged design suitable for enclosure in Class G3 (harsh) environments
• Fieldbus Communication:Supports communication from either path (A or B) of the redundant 2 Mbps Module Fieldbus

Key Features

• Configurable Options:Pulse rate totalization, resolution adjustments, and meter scaling factors
• Termination Assemblies (TAs):Facilitates local or remote connection of field wiring
• Visual Indicators:Equipped with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the front of the module for operational status indications
• Modular Design:Mounts on a modular baseplate, accommodating up to four or eight FBMs
