- Provides four isolated FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 links
- Supports up to sixteen field devices on each link
- Verify processor, TA and redundancy hardware before replacement
Foxboro FBM228 provides four independent FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 links, each with Link Active Scheduler capability, for integrating intelligent transmitters and actuators into a Foxboro DCS.
The module exchanges cyclic process data and acyclic device information with compatible FCP280, FCP270 or supported legacy communication hardware through the redundant module Fieldbus.
It is used where multiple H1 segments require channel isolation, individual diagnostics and optional module redundancy without combining the field wiring of separate segments.
Availability, condition, price, and shipping time for FBM228 are confirmed during quotation.
