Working Principle The module converts analogue field signals into digital values through 16-bit analog-to-digital converters. Each channel operates independently with full isolation from field common. In redundant configurations, multiple modules process the same inputs and vote on the correct value, eliminating false trips from single-channel failures. Diagnostics continuously monitor power, input signals, and internal circuitry.
