    Foundation Fieldbus Modular I/O


    As the leader in signal conditioning and protection, Pepperl+Fuchs has been at the forefront in developing Remote I/O systems for hazardous and non-hazardous location applications. Our Point-to-Bus solutions support open fieldbus protocols and have interfaced with a variety of control systems throughout the world. With hundreds of thousands of installed loops, our Point-to-Bus solutions help control and protect chemical, pharmaceutical and other process industries from the dangers of explosions.
    Whether your application requires a Zone 1, or Zone 2 or Div. 2, or safe area mounted system, our Modular I/O systems offer tremendous features such as intrinsic safety connections and HART compatibility. Our systems are certified for use in hazardous areas around the globe and carry the Foundation Fieldbus Tick Mark.

    For the first time our FF Modular I/O allows you to link all kinds of NON Foundation Fieldbus signals to the standard Foundation Fieldbus.
    There are analog 20mA transmitter inputs and outputs for proportional valves, digital I/O for contacts and NAMUR sensors as well as solenoids and sounders, and there are temperature inputs, and relay outputs.


    Zone 2, Div.2 Foundation Fieldbus Modular I/O


    LB FF Modular I/O Rail mounted in Zone 2 or Div. 2 with I/O connected to Zone 0 or Div.1
    Pepperl+Fuchs field-proven LB FF Modular I/O cards combine the features of isolated barriers with the flexibility of Remote I/O. This comprehensive, modular Point-to-Bus system, offers intrinsically safe field connections and communicates to a controller via the open Foundation Fieldbus protocol.
    LB FF Modular I/O offers a wide selection of discrete and analog I/O modules to support even the toughest application in your process plant.
