Function Features

Isolated Input/Output: By providing isolated input and output channels, Foxboro FBM203 protects against electrical noise and interferences, which ensures accurate and reliable signals during signal transmission in a noise-filled surrounding. Such isolation also enhances the safety and stability of the complete system.

Analog and Digital Signal Processing: Foxboro FBM203 can process both the analog and digital signals, providing seamless and easy integration into other industrial processes. The analog input channels convert temperature, pressure, flow, and level into electrical signals that are processed by the control system; while control of a motor, valve, or relay can be through a digital output channel.

Programmable configuration: Foxboro FBM203 offers programmable configuration options to enable the user to specify certain variables for module operation in relation to application requirements, including input/output ranges, alarm limits, sample rates, and other parameters built in for adaptability according to the prevailing conditions being controlled.

Data conversion and processing: Incorporates higher resolution and accuracy of signal measurement through advanced techniques of data conversion and processing, such as sigma-delta converters in some models. It may excite new analog input values at a great speed, perform some averaging and filtering to remove noise and interference, thus providing high accuracy and stability of data presented to the control system.

Compatibility and Integration: Foxboro FBM203 is compatible with Foxboro I/A series distributed control systems and other architectures of industrial automation. It can be incorporated into the existing systems quite easily with familiar communication interfaces for effective data exchange between the diverse elements of the industrial control network.

Integrated Diagnostic and Alarm Functions: Foxboro FBM203 incorporates comprehensive diagnostic and alarm features that can recognize and report faults or abnormal conditions in real-time. This allows prompt maintenance and troubleshooting, thus preventing imminent equipment failure and production disruption.
