Brief: In this video, we provide an informative overview of the Foxboro FBM214 HART Communication Module. You'll see how its eight group-isolated channels handle both standard 4-20 mA and HART device signals, learn about its integration with the I/A Series system for digital messaging, and discover its rugged design suitable for harsh industrial environments. We also demonstrate the module's installation flexibility and its role in preventing signal interference across various process applications.
Related Product Features:
  • Features eight 4 to 20 mA group-isolated analog input channels for flexible field instrumentation support.
  • Supports any combination of standard 4-20 mA devices and HART devices with digital FSK signals.
  • Acts as a HART communications host, enabling the I/A Series system to request and receive digital messages.
  • Provides a common isolated power supply for all eight channels, with optional external power supply capability.
  • Utilizes dedicated FSK modems per channel for smooth bi-directional communication with HART field devices.
  • Ensures high accuracy through analog-to-digital conversion and sigma-delta data conversion technology.
  • Designed with a compact, durable build suitable for Class G3 harsh industrial environments.
  • Simplifies installation with Termination Assemblies that support both locally and remotely wired transmitters.
FAQs:
  • What types of input signals does the FBM214 module support?
    The FBM214 supports any combination of standard 4 to 20 mA analog input signals and HART digital FSK signals superimposed on the 4-20 mA current loop, providing flexibility for various field instrumentation.
  • How does the FBM214 handle communication with HART field devices?
    As a HART communications host, the FBM214 allows the I/A Series system to request and receive up to two digital messages per second from each HART field device using universal, common practice, and device-specific commands via the Intelligent Field Device Configurator (IFDC).
  • What is required when using an external power supply for multiple channels?
    When powering two or more channels from a common external supply, a Cable Balun module is required to prevent channel cross talk and ensure accurate, reliable signal transmission across all inputs.
  • In which industrial environments is the FBM214 module suitable?
    The FBM214 is designed for rugged use in Class G3 harsh environments, making it ideal for applications in oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, water and wastewater, and pharmaceutical or food processing plants.
