Emerson 5X00106G02 Ovation 16-Channel HART Analog Input Module

Emerson 5X00106G02 Ovation 16-Channel HART Analog Input Module

The Emerson 5X00106G02 represents a breakthrough in analog signal acquisition for distributed control systems. Engineered specifically for Ovation DCS platforms, this 16-channel HART-enabled analog input module delivers precision measurement and diagnostic intelligence for mission-critical process control environments.

Advanced Signal Processing Architecture

Built on Emerson's proven Ovation platform, the 5X00106G02 features independent channel isolation and 16-bit A/D conversion per input. Each channel supports HART digital communication overlaid on the 4-20mA analog signal, enabling simultaneous process variable transmission and device diagnostics without interrupting control loops. The module's differential input design provides superior common-mode noise rejection—essential for installations in electrically noisy industrial environments such as power generation facilities, petrochemical plants, and pulp & paper mills.

Technical Specifications

• Input Channels: 16 individually configurable analog inputs
• Signal Range: 4-20mA, 0-20mA, ±10V, 0-10V (software selectable)
• HART Compatibility: Full HART 7 protocol support on all channels
• Resolution: 16-bit per channel with oversampling
• Accuracy: ±0.1% of span at 25°C
• Update Rate: 100ms per channel (configurable)
• Isolation: 1500V channel-to-backplane, 250V channel-to-channel
• Operating Temperature: 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F)
• Power Consumption: 8W typical from Ovation I/O backplane
• Mounting: Hot-swappable in Ovation I/O chassis

Industrial Applications

Power Generation: Monitor turbine bearing temperatures, steam pressures, and feedwater flow in combined-cycle and fossil-fuel plants. The module's high channel density reduces cabinet footprint while HART diagnostics enable predictive maintenance of field transmitters.

Oil & Gas Processing: Acquire pressure, temperature, and flow signals from separator vessels, distillation columns, and pipeline metering stations. The 5X00106G02's intrinsic safety barrier compatibility makes it suitable for Zone 2/Division 2 classified areas when paired with appropriate barriers.

Chemical Manufacturing: Interface with analytical transmitters, pH sensors, and level instruments in batch reactors and continuous processes. HART communication retrieves secondary variables (e.g., sensor temperature, diagnostic codes) without additional wiring.

Water Treatment: Integrate chlorine analyzers, turbidity meters, and flow transmitters in municipal and industrial water systems. The module's wide input range accommodates legacy 0-10V transmitters alongside modern 4-20mA HART devices.

System Integration & Configuration

The 5X00106G02 installs in any Ovation I/O chassis slot and auto-discovers upon power-up. Configuration is performed through Ovation Developer Studio, where engineers assign tag names, scaling parameters, alarm limits, and HART polling schedules. The module supports both polled and burst-mode HART communication, with configurable update rates to balance diagnostic data freshness against network bandwidth.

Each input channel features software-configurable filtering (0.1s to 10s time constant) to suppress sensor noise while maintaining fast response to process upsets. Built-in open-circuit and short-circuit detection triggers immediate alarms, and the module's self-diagnostics continuously monitor A/D converter health, power supply integrity, and backplane communication status.

Reliability & Serviceability

Designed for 24/7 operation in harsh industrial environments, the 5X00106G02 employs conformal-coated PCBs and industrial-grade components rated for extended temperature ranges. Hot-swap capability allows module replacement without shutting down the I/O chassis or disrupting adjacent channels. Front-panel LEDs indicate module status, channel activity, and fault conditions for rapid troubleshooting.

Emerson backs the 5X00106G02 with comprehensive lifecycle support, including firmware updates, calibration services, and global spare parts availability. The module is compatible with all Ovation controller generations, ensuring investment protection during system upgrades.
