FOXBORO FBM242 Product Introduction

FOXBORO FBM242 is a discrete output interface module.The following is a detailed introduction to it.

Basic parameters

Product number:FBM242

Product type:external source,discrete output interface module

Brand:FOXBORO

Origin:Europe and the United States

Structural form:modular

Installation method:usually installed on a DIN rail or a rack mounted horizontally on a compact 200 Series Backplane

Operating Voltage:Supports multiple voltage ranges,including 15 to 60V DC,120V AC/125V DC,240V AC

Output Channels:16 discrete output channels

Load Current:Rated current up to 2A per channel at 60V DC(some technical specifications may indicate a maximum of 2.25A)

Dimensions:Length x Width x Height is approximately 10.4 cm x 4.5 cm x 11.4 cm

Weight:Light,approximately 0.284 kg(shipping weight may be 2 kg)

Features

Electrical Isolation:Each output is completely isolated from other channels and ground,and is group isolated when used with external excitation,which improves the safety and stability of the system.

Rugged Design:Features a rugged acrylonitrile butadiene styrene(ABS)housing that provides physical protection for the circuit and is suitable for cabinets in G3-level(harsh)environments.

Configurable options:Can execute discrete I/O or ladder logic programs,with configurable options such as input filter time,fail-safe configuration,fail-safe fallback,and continuous or instantaneous output.

Terminal assembly:Contains current limiting devices,fuses,etc.,to provide power distribution and fuse protection for discrete outputs.

Redundant communication:Connected to the fieldbus communication module or control processor through a redundant 2Mbps module fieldbus,supporting communication from any path(A or B)of the redundant fieldbus,improving system reliability.

Application field

The FBM242 module is suitable for various industrial automation and control systems,including but not limited to chemical,petroleum,power and other industrial fields.It can be used to receive and process signals from field devices,execute digital I/O applications,and support ladder logic,providing a reliable and flexible solution for industrial automation control.

Other information

Operating temperature range:-20 to+70 degrees Celsius(-4 to+158 degrees Fahrenheit),the operating temperature range of the terminal assembly PVC is-20 to+50 degrees Celsius(-4 to+122 degrees Fahrenheit).

Relative humidity range:5 to 95%(non-condensing).

Module status display:A light-emitting diode(LED)is installed on the front to intuitively display the operating status of the module and the discrete status of each output point.
