Product Description
Product Overview
The_FBM218 (P0922VW) Communication Redundant Output Module_provides_eight isolated channels_that support_HART® protocol and/or 4-20 mA outputs, selectable per channel. The module ensures_redundant operation, maintaining continuous plant functionality even in case of failure, with simple maintenance replacement.
This module has been_superseded by RH922VW_but retains compatibility within_Foxboro control systems.
