Key features of the FBM216b module are:
Eight individually isolated analog input channels.
Each channel accepts one of the following inputs:
Standard 4 to 20 mA analog sensor signal
Digital HART Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) signal superimposed on a 4 to 20 mA analog signal.
Module pair offers redundancy at the FBM level
FSK modem dedicated to each input channel for bi-directional digital communications with a HART field device.
Analog to digital conversion of each of the 4 to 20 mA input signal from the HART devices.
Support for the HART universal commands necessary to interface the field device with the I/A Series® system database.
Per channel galvanic isolation of each of the 8 input channels from each other, ground and module logic.
