Overview

The Honeywell 8C-TAOXA1 is a critical component within Honeywell’s Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS), serving as an analog output I/O termination assembly. It plays an essential role in converting digital control signals into analog output for field devices, enabling precise regulation of flow, pressure, temperature, and other critical process variables in industrial settings.

The 8C-TAOXA1 is designed for high-performance process control and integrates seamlessly with Honeywell’s Series 8 I/O architecture. It features a compact design and DIN rail mounting, making it easy to install in control cabinets while ensuring durability in harsh industrial environments. This module is widely used in industries like oil & gas, chemicals, power generation, and water treatment.

Technical Data

Typical Applications

• Valve and Actuator Control: Sends analog signals to control valve positions and actuator movements in process control systems.

• Motor Speed Regulation: Regulates motor drives in manufacturing and industrial automation applications.

• Process Variable Adjustment: Controls flow, pressure, and temperature based on control logic and feedback.

• Distributed Control Systems (DCS): Interfaces with controllers in Honeywell Experion PKS environments.

• Industrial Automation: Applied in chemical plants, refineries, and power stations for regulating analog-driven field equipment.

For example, in a chemical blending unit, the 8C-TAOXA1 outputs analog signals to control dosing pumps, ensuring consistent product quality by maintaining precise mixture ratios.
