FOXBORO FBM203 Product Overview

The FBM203 module is part of Foxboro’s products and is usually used with its control system to provide temperature measurement and control functions.It adopts a dense design with a sturdy pressed aluminum housing to provide physical protection for electronic circuits.In addition,its cabinet is specially designed to provide installation protection for FBM in various environments,including harsh environments defined by ISA standard S71.04.

Main features and functions

High accuracy and resolution:The FBM203 module has high accuracy and resolution,which can accurately read the value of the temperature sensor and output precise control signals.Each channel contains a sigma-delta converter that scans every 25 milliseconds to provide a new analog signal,and the integration cycle can be configured to remove processing noise and power line frequency.

Multiple RTD input channels:The FBM203 module usually has multiple RTD input channels for connecting RTD sensors to measure temperature.These channels provide isolated inputs to ensure electrical isolation of each channel.

Analog output channels:In addition to input channels,the FBM203 also has analog output channels for sending control signals to actuators or other devices to adjust or control temperature.

Communication interface:The FBM203 module usually has an interface for communicating with the Foxboro control system,such as the Foxboro Fieldbus communication interface.This allows the module to transmit temperature data to the control system or receive control commands from the control system.

Configuration and programming:The FBM203 module can be configured and programmed through the corresponding configuration software to meet specific application requirements and implement the required control logic.

Protection function:The FBM203 module has functions such as overload protection and short circuit protection to ensure the safe operation of the module and related equipment.

Application scope

The FBM203 module is usually used in various industrial automation applications,such as chemical,petroleum,pharmaceutical and other fields,for monitoring and controlling temperature.Its high accuracy and reliability make it an important part of temperature monitoring and control in these fields.
