Foxboro FCP270 P0917YZ Field Control Processor for Class G3 Harsh Environments

Distributed, optionally fault-tolerant, field-mounted controller module.

Regulatory, logic, timing, and sequential control with connected Fieldbus Modules.

Supports data acquisition, alarm detection, and notification.

Connects to Foxboro Evo control network via fiber optic 100 Mbps Ethernet.

Two processor modules installed in adjacent FCP270 slots in a supported baseplate for high-speed inter-module communication.

Modules must be installed in adjacent slots for proper high-speed communication.
