Overview
The Foxboro FBM231 (P0926GV) module enables reliable integration of serial communication devices into distributed control architectures. It supports multiple industry protocols—Modbus RTU, ASCII, and proprietary formats—making it ideal for interfacing PLCs, analyzers, smart sensors, and third-party controllers.
With four independent serial ports and the option to deploy in redundant pairs, the module ensures high availability and continuous communication. Robust electrical isolation and strong noise immunity allow dependable performance in harsh industrial environments. As part of Schneider Electric’s control ecosystem, its modular design simplifies configuration, expansion, and maintenance across mission-critical automation systems.
