Schneider Electric recently announced the launch of a new industrial monitoring module, the FBM207C, under its Foxboro brand. Designed for the I/A Series Distributed control System (DCS), the module has 16 channels and can handle voltage or contact sensing inputs, significantly enhancing the data acquisition and monitoring capabilities of industrial automation and control systems.

The main features of the FBM207C module include:

16 channels support voltage input or contact sensing, providing a variety of monitoring options.

Voltage input ranges from 15 to 60 V DC to accommodate a wide range of signal sources.

High input impedance design ensures no signal distortion.

Using Sigma-Delta A/D conversion technology, high accuracy and fast update rates (once every 25 milliseconds) are achieved.

Flexible configuration of integration time, effectively eliminate the noise in the signal.

Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +70°C, suitable for a variety of industrial environments.

Complies with IEC electromagnetic compatibility standards to ensure communication stability and reliability.

Strong extruded aluminum housing provides excellent physical protection.

The introduction of the FBM207C module further enriches Schneider Electric’s product line in the field of industrial automation, providing strong technical support and solutions for a number of industries, including chemical, oil and gas, power generation, water treatment, food and beverage production. The module’s high reliability and flexible configuration make it ideal for precise control in industrial control systems.
