FAQs:
What types of input signals does the FBM202 module accept?
The FBM202 module accepts eight isolated thermocouple/mV input channels and includes one 4-wire 100 ohm platinum RTD (IEC 751, Class B) for reference junction compensation.
How is the FBM202 module designed for harsh environments?
It features a robust electrical design with galvanically isolated channels and rugged construction, making it suitable for Class G3 harsh industrial environments.
What termination assembly options are available for the FBM202 module?
Two types of passive termination assemblies are available: DIN rail-mounted TAs similar to other 200 Series FBMs, and a baseplate-mounted TA that connects directly to the field I/O connectors of the 200 Series baseplate.
Does the FBM202 provide any diagnostic features for sensor monitoring?
Yes, each channel provides thermocouple burnout detection (upscale) to alert operators of sensor failures, ensuring reliable temperature monitoring.
