Overview

The FI‑PFH‑NS0137‑R HART Termination Board is a compact DIN‑rail mountable interface module from Pepperl+Fuchs. It serves as the connection point between HART field devices and the K‑System HART Multiplexer, enabling centralized communication and diagnostics.
This board is specifically intended for non‑intrinsically safe environments, making it suitable for safe‑area installations where HART communication needs to be centralized and managed.

Technical Data

Typical Applications

• PLC and DCS integration where multiple HART transmitters must be connected to a central multiplexer

• Process automation systems in chemical plants and refineries

• Industrial control environments requiring non‑intrinsically safe HART communication

• Centralized diagnostics for HART‑enabled transmitters

For example, engineers use the FI‑PFH‑NS0137‑R to connect up to 16 transmitters to a HART multiplexer, enabling remote configuration and diagnostics without disrupting the analog 4–20 mA signal loop.
