FOXBORO FBM201

Description

The FOXBORO FBM201 is an analog input interface module manufactured by Schneider Electric (formerly Invensys Foxboro).

Product Description:

The FBM201 is designed to connect analog sensors to a control system.
It has eight channels for inputting analog signals in the range of 0 to 20 mA dc.
Each channel is electrically isolated from the others and from ground to prevent interference.
The module is compact and rugged, making it suitable for use in harsh environments.

Product Parameters and Specifications:

Number of Channels: 8
Input Range: 0 to 20 mA dc (there are variations of the FBM201 that accept different input ranges)
Isolation: Galvanic isolation between channels and ground
Accuracy: High accuracy achieved by sigma-delta data conversions
Enclosure Rating: Suitable for Class G3 (harsh) environments

Product Use:

The FOXBORO FBM201 is used in industrial process control applications to convert analog signals from sensors (such as pressure, temperature, or flow sensors) into digital signals that can be understood by a control system. This allows the control system to monitor and control the process.
