Product Overview
The P0916DW (FBM242) is a 16-channel discrete output module for the Foxboro I/A Series DCS. Designed for high-density control, it drives external devices such as solenoid valves, motor starters, and indicator lamps.
As an externally sourced module, the P0916DW switches power from an external supply to field devices while maintaining optical isolation on each channel to protect the DCS backplane from electrical surges and noise.

Key Operational Advantages
-
High-Density Control
Manage 16 independent field devices from a single module, optimizing cabinet space and reducing system cost. -
Optical Isolation
Each channel is individually isolated, protecting the control system from short circuits or voltage transients on field wiring. -
Redundant Communication
Connects via redundant Fieldbus paths, maintaining operation even if one communication path fails. -
Configurable Fail-Safe States
Channels can hold their last state or revert to a predefined safe state upon loss of control processor communication.
Technical FAQ
Q: What does "Externally Sourced" mean?
A: The module does not supply power to the field device. Instead, an external power source is routed through the Termination Assembly (TA). Activating a P0916DW channel closes the circuit, allowing the external power to drive the solenoid, relay, or actuator.
Q: Can I visually confirm if an output is active?
A: Yes. Each channel has a front-panel LED that lights when the output is on, enabling quick local verification and troubleshooting.
