Technical Specifications

Main Features and Advantages

The FBM217 RH914TR delivers advanced process automation capabilities with HART 7 protocol support through its FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus interface. Featuring dual-layer isolation and surge protection per IEC 61000-4-5, it maintains signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. Configurable input types enable seamless integration with diverse sensors including temperature transmitters and pressure transducers.

FBM217

Intrinsically safe design meets ATEX/IECEx requirements for Zone 0 installations. Its built-in diagnostics continuously monitor loop integrity, detecting open-circuit conditions and wiring degradation before process disruptions occur. Automatic compensation algorithms maintain ±0.05% accuracy across the full temperature range. The module’s rugged aluminum housing (IP66 rated) withstands corrosive environments common in offshore, chemical, and pulp/paper applications.

Application Areas

Oil and Gas: The FBM217 RH914TR performs wellhead pressure monitoring in offshore platforms, with HART communication enabling remote calibration. Pipeline SCADA systems utilize its dual-range inputs for custody transfer metering where measurement accuracy is critical. Refinery fired-heater controls benefit from the module’s configurable temperature inputs and redundant power options.

Chemical Processing: Continuous reactor systems deploy this module for simultaneous control of reagent dosing pumps and jacket temperature loops. Its hazardous area certification allows deployment near reactors with volatile solvents. For wastewater treatment plants, it monitors pH control loops and chemical oxygen demand measurements with programmable alarm thresholds.

Installation and Maintenance

Installation Preparation: Before deploying the FBM217 RH914TR, verify proper bus terminations and ensure grounding points meet IEEE 1100 standards. Use shielded twisted pair cables and ground shields at single point only. For hazardous areas, implement appropriate P0927CV barriers. Configure input types and scaling via FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus host system prior to commissioning.

Maintenance Suggestion: Perform annual calibration checks using portable calibrators. Monitor module diagnostics through host system for early fault detection. Maintain backup power supplies like P0926GU for critical applications. Avoid module cleaning with solvents; instead use IPA-dampened cloths for contact cleaning. Replace modules after 10 years service or when diagnostics indicate calibration drift beyond acceptable limits.
