Performance Parameters
- Operating Temperature: 0°C to 60°C
- Storage Temperature: -40°C to 85°C
- Power Supply: 24 VDC via backplane
Material Composition
Features a robust industrial enclosure with conformal-coated internal circuitry to resist harsh industrial atmospheres.
Structural Characteristics
Standard 200 Series FBM single-width design. Connects to the backplane via a secure rear interface and utilizes a designated Terminal Assembly for field wiring.
Operating Principle
Extracts the 4-20mA analog signal for primary process control while simultaneously demodulating the superimposed HART digital signal to communicate with the smart transmitter for secondary variables and device diagnostics.
Installation Requirements
Install on a Foxboro 200 Series baseplate. Ensure proper grounding and ventilation. HART communication requires a minimum loop resistance; verify field wiring meets HART specifications.
Usage Precautions
Ensure the HART communication address configured in the DCS matches the field device. Verify that the loop impedance is within the acceptable range for reliable HART communication.
