About I/A Series FBM242 Module

Manufacturer: Invensys

Module Number: FBM242

FBM242 P0916TA is Foxboro Output Module

FBM242 P0926BE is FBM242 Termination Assembly

Description: FBM242, Externally Sourced, Discrete Output Interface Module

Dimensions: 6x15x15cm

Weight: 0.8kg

The FBM242 Discrete Output Interface Module contains 16 discrete output channels which are sourced

externally

Overview

The FBM242 Discrete Output Interface Module contains 16 discrete output channels, which are sourced externally, rated up to 2 A at 60 V dc.

Associated termination assemblies (TAs) provide for discrete outputs to loads of 2 A at 60 V dc, relay outputs (120 V ac/125 V dc, or 240 V ac), or relay

outputs with power distribution and fusing. Each output is fully isolated from other channels and ground.

The module interfaces electrical output signals from a control processor to the field devices. It executes a

digital I/O application program, with ladder logic support, and provides a Fail-Safe Configuration option for the outputs.

Features

1) Key features of the FBM242 modules are:

Sixteen discrete outputs

Supports discrete output signals at voltages of:

15 to 60 V dc

120 V ac/125 V dc

240 V ac

2)Each input and output is galvanically isolated;

group isolated when used with external excitation

3)Compact, rugged design suitable for enclosure in Class G3 (harsh) environments

4)Executes the Discrete I/O or Ladder Logic program, with the following configurable options: Input Filter Time, Fail Safe Configuration, FailSafe Fall-Back, and Sustained or Momentary

Outputs

5)Various Termination Assemblies (TAs) that contain:

Current limiting devices

Fuses

Relay outputs with external power source,fusing, and power distribution

Solid state outputs

Redundant power distribution
