Honeywell 10006/2/1-008804 Digital Output Module

The Honeywell 10006/2/1-008804 , also cataloged as the 10006/2/1 Digital Output Module, operates as a dedicated hardware component for driving discrete field actuators and control loops within Honeywell process automation platforms.

Hardware Specifications

4-20 mA HART Loop Protocol & Channel Isolation

The module executes switching logic for six discrete 24 VDC output channels, each supporting up to 550 mA current delivery for driving field loads up to 13 W, including solenoid valves and actuators. Built-in 2500 Vdc high-voltage isolation separates field circuits from internal backplane logic, preventing transient voltage surges and common-mode electrical noise from interfering with system processing. Integrated channel monitoring routines enforce fail-safe execution states in the event of system communication loss or supply voltage drops.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What protection measures prevent high-voltage transients on field wiring from damaging internal backplane electronics?

A: The module incorporates a galvanic isolation barrier rated at 2500 Vdc between the output channel terminals and the internal backplane bus, suppressing common-mode noise and electrical surges.

Q: Can the 10006/2/1-008804 module drive inductive loads directly without external suppression diodes?

A: Each channel supports up to 550 mA (13 W) at 24 VDC. However, installing external flywheel diodes directly across inductive field loads such as solenoid coils is recommended to limit back-EMF voltage spikes during switching.

Field Installation Guidelines

1. De-energize the rack backplane power source prior to inserting or removing the module from its slot.
2. Confirm field actuator current draw does not exceed 550 mA (13 W) at 24 VDC per output point.
3. Route digital output wiring away from high-voltage AC lines, utilizing shielded cable assemblies grounded at a single cabinet earth point.
4. Verify cabinet ambient environmental conditions remain within the operating limits of -20 deg C to 70 deg C to prevent thermal overload.
