Overview

The Honeywell 51402797-100 LCNP Board is a crucial component in Honeywell's legacy TDC 3000 control system, specifically designed for Global User Station (GUS) implementations. Installed in a PC's PCI slot, it provides a direct interface to the Local Control Network (LCN), enabling the workstation to function as a fully integrated operator or engineering station within the TDC 3000 architecture.

This board is especially valuable for facilities that still rely on TDC 3000 systems, providing real-time access to process data, alarms, and control functions. It supports non-Dell PC platforms, offering flexibility in hardware selection, which is beneficial for system integrators and end users. Additionally, it is certified with CE, TUV, UL508, and CSA, ensuring compliance with international safety and performance standards.

Its compact size and plug-and-play design make it easy to install and maintain in various industrial environments.

Technical Data

Typical Applications

• Global User Station Integration: Enables PC-based operator and engineering stations to communicate with Honeywell’s Local Control Network (LCN) in TDC 3000 systems.

• Legacy System Support: Ensures continued compatibility with existing TDC 3000 installations, extending the life of older systems.

• Process Monitoring and Control: Provides real-time access to alarms, trends, and control parameters for operators in critical industries.

• System Expansion: Facilitates adding new workstations to an existing Honeywell DCS network without requiring major infrastructure changes.

• Industrial Automation: Widely used in industries such as refineries, chemical plants, and power generation facilities that rely on Honeywell DCS systems.

For example, in a refinery control room, the 51402797-100 enables engineers to monitor and adjust process variables via a PC-based GUS, ensuring seamless operational continuity and safety.
