Technical Specifications

Main Features and Advantages

The FBM217 RH916XZ offers advanced process control with its multi-signal capability, supporting direct thermocouple and RTD inputs without external transmitters. Enhanced 24-bit analog-to-digital conversion provides exceptional measurement accuracy (±0.025% of span) critical for custody transfer applications. HART 7 compatibility enables simultaneous digital communication without interrupting the analog signal.

Its dual-channel architecture provides signal redundancy for critical safety systems meeting SIL2 requirements. Advanced diagnostics include lead break detection, cold junction compensation accuracy monitoring, and output load monitoring. The IP66/IP68-rated enclosure withstands high humidity and corrosive atmospheres, while the extended temperature range ensures reliability in arctic environments or near furnace installations.

Application Areas

Oil and Gas Production: The FBM217 RH916XZ monitors multiphase flow meters in offshore platforms, providing real-time density and water-cut measurements. Its direct thermocouple inputs reduce installation costs for wellhead temperature monitoring. Pipeline pump stations utilize the module’s dual-output configuration for cascade control of pressure and flow.

Chemical Processing: Continuous stirred-tank reactors benefit from simultaneous temperature control and reagent dosing management. In chlor-alkali plants, the module’s corrosion-resistant construction handles salt spray environments. For polymer production, its fast update rate supports viscosity control loops requiring precise temperature compensation.

Installation and Maintenance

Installation Preparation: Before mounting the FBM217 RH916XZ, ensure proper grounding according to IEEE 518 standards. Use FOXBORO-approved P0928TD isolators for Zone 0 installations. Maintain minimum 25mm clearance from high-voltage components and verify cable shielding continuity. Configure input types and scaling parameters via FOUNDATION Fieldbus host system prior to power-up.

Maintenance Suggestion: Perform annual loop calibration using HART communicators for field verification. Monitor diagnostic flags for signal drift and abnormal power consumption. Clean termination contacts with isopropyl alcohol every two years. Maintain redundant power supplies like P0917JH for continuous operation. Replace modules after 10 years service or when diagnostics indicate measurement uncertainty exceeding 0.1%.
