Key Features and System Integration
The 51454416-100 module digitizes field signals for the C300 controller’s logic processing. It conditions input signals from devices like pressure switches or level sensors. The module also executes output commands to actuate valves, starters, and indicator lights. Moreover, its wide operating temperature allows deployment in harsh outdoor or unconditioned environments. This flexibility makes it suitable for oil and gas, chemical, and power generation industries.
Application Context and Channel Utilization
Engineers use this module for discrete (on/off) control and monitoring applications. Typical inputs include motor run status, valve limit switch positions, and alarm contacts. Corresponding outputs often control solenoid valves, relay coils, and warning horns. The 51454416-100 integrates directly into the modular Experion PKS I/O subsystem. Therefore, it provides a scalable solution for expanding system point count.
Installation and Configuration Notes
Installation requires inserting the module into a compatible Honeywell C-series I/O chassis. Technicians must connect field wiring to the clearly labeled terminal blocks. Configuration and mapping of each I/O point occur within the Control Builder engineering software. Furthermore, proper grounding and the use of surge protection devices are recommended for field connections.
