- Handles 32 discrete field inputs through a selected TA
- Choose the TA for the actual voltage and contact-sense method
- Match filtering, redundancy and field power before installation
FBM217 is selected for high-density discrete status acquisition where the termination assembly defines the field-voltage interface.
The electronic module alone does not determine whether the installation monitors 30 VDC, 125 VDC, 120 VAC or 240 VAC inputs.
Before replacement, document the main and expansion TAs, cable types, wetting supply, isolation groups and any RH926ZY redundant adapter.
Availability, condition, price, and shipping time for FBM217 are confirmed during quotation.
