Features:

  • Provides dedicated I/O bus termination at the required beginning and end points of connected subrack arrangements.
  • Integrates with the F 7553 coupling module and BV 7032 data cable architecture for structured communication between I/O subracks.
  • Supports H41q, H51q, and HIQuad system configurations with 500 V AC bus-to-I/O isolation and operation across the specified industrial temperature and humidity ranges.
In industrial automation systems, reliable communication between central equipment and distributed I/O hardware depends on a correctly arranged bus structure. HIMA F7546 contributes to that structure by providing the termination required for the I/O bus. Proper termination supports the intended communication path across interconnected I/O subracks. The module therefore serves a focused but important role within H41q, H51q, and HIQuad system architectures.

Multi-subrack control installations require both physical interconnection and defined bus boundaries. HIMA F7546 addresses the termination side of the arrangement, while F 7553 coupling modules provide the I/O bus connection at the subrack and BV 7032 data cables link individual subracks at the rear. The combination creates an organized path between the I/O level and the central device. Such an arrangement is particularly relevant where multiple I/O subracks must operate as part of one coordinated control system.

From an installation perspective, HIMA F7546 offers straightforward integration into the specified I/O bus architecture without introducing an additional communication layer. The module operates within an 18 V DC to 36 V DC range and accommodates industrial environments from -20°C to +60°C. A 5% to 95% non-condensing humidity range further supports use in control cabinets and industrial equipment rooms. With a maximum output current of 6.3 A, typical consumption of 2.5 W, and 500 V AC bus-to-I/O isolation, the module combines the required termination function with electrical characteristics suited to compatible HIMA installations.

The F7546 HIMA Bus Termination Module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

General

  • Manufacturer HIMA
  • Model F7546
  • Condition New Original ready stock
  • Product Family F7553,F7131,F7133
Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
  • Start and End Node Positioning: Must be precisely inserted into the start and end terminal slots (e.g., XD.1 or XD.2 interfaces) of the HIMA I/O expansion rack communication link.
  • Rail and Backplate Compatibility: Supports standard DIN 35mm rail mounting, and can also be directly locked to the metal backplate of the control cabinet via dedicated mounting holes.
  • Cold Insertion and Removal Safety and Secure Fixation: Vertical insertion and removal must be performed only after the system is completely powered off. After cable connection, manually tighten the anti-loosening screws on both sides to withstand long-term vibration.
  • Small Size and Compact Layout: The hardware adopts a compact and ultra-thin form factor of 100mm × 50mm × 20mm, saving valuable rack space inside the Safety Instrumented Cabinet (SIS).
  • Impedance Matching and Reverse Reflection Limitation: The module integrates a precision physical terminating resistor to absorb reflected waves from the bus end, preventing distortion and packet loss in the serial data waveform.
  • Dual-Channel Redundant Interlocking: Natively supports two independent physical channels, working with the HIMA master control card to achieve end-to-end dual-channel redundant communication and fault isolation.
  • Strict Voltage and Current Limiting: When the bus voltage fluctuation exceeds the 17.5V DC - 36.5V DC boundary, it automatically triggers undervoltage/overvoltage logic cutoff in conjunction with the master card.
  • High-Reliability Logic Transparency: As a purely hardware-level bus impedance conditioning unit, it is completely transparent to the upper-level control program, requiring no software driver development.
  • Large Chemical Plant ESD Cabinet: Deployed at the end of multiple distributed I/O expansion racks in the Emergency Stop System (ESD), ensuring error-free transmission of the safety interlock bus throughout the plant.
  • Oil and gas wellheads and long-distance pipelines: Installed in highly distributed Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) racks, overcoming signal attenuation over complex long-distance communication lines through stable impedance.
  • Boiler Combustion Management System (BMS): Serving as the terminator for multi-rack communication within the boiler trip protection circuits of large power plants, ensuring zero false trips at SIL3 level.
  • Replacement of aging H41q/H51q systems: As original equipment manufacturer (OEM) standardized spare parts for HIMA's classic safety systems, used for local network expansion during major overhauls of aging chemical systems worldwide.
Description
The HIMA F7546 bus termination module forms part of the I/O bus arrangement used with HIMA H41q, H51q, and HIQuad systems. Within an I/O subrack, connection to the I/O bus is handled through the F 7553 coupling module installed in slot 17. Communication between individual I/O module subracks is established at the rear through the BV 7032 data cable, while the bus itself is integrated into the bus board of the I/O module subracks.

For a complete multi-subrack configuration, the HIMA F7546 provides the termination required by the I/O bus. Depending on the rack arrangement, an F 7546 module is plugged into the appropriate bus connector at the bus boundary, including the XD .2 connector of the last I/O module subrack. In configurations requiring termination at both bus boundaries, F 7546 modules are installed at the beginning and the end of the I/O bus. The arrangement works together with the F 7553 coupling module and BV 7032 data cable to maintain the intended bus connection throughout the I/O level.

The HIMA F7546 operates from an 18 V DC to 36 V DC input range with a nominal supply of 24 V DC and supports a maximum output current of 6.3 A. Typical power consumption is 2.5 W, while the specified isolation voltage between the bus and I/O is 500 V AC. The module supports operation from -20°C to +60°C and relative humidity from 5% to 95% without condensation, making the termination function suitable for industrial control installations operating within the specified HIMA system environment.
