Emerson DeltaV™ M-series Traditional I/O
Decreases capital equipment costs
Full system modularity: The Traditional I/O subsystem was designed with your investment in mind. All components are fully modular and may be installable under power. You add I/O interface carriers and I/O interfaces in groups of 4. 8. 16.or 32 channels as you need them. The modular design enables you to purchase the exact amount of I/O cards, 8-wide or 4-wide carriers, power/ controllers, and 2-wide carriers you need and add more DeltaV I/O as your system grows.
Reduced system footprint: The DeltaV system’s state-of-the- art form factor design of the I/O components enables you to mount the I/O interface carrier in a junction box in the field so you significantly reduce the footprint of your equipment and increase valuable control room space for other uses.
Installation: Save on wiring expenses by installing Classic Instrumentation in the field, near the actual field devices.
Mounting the controller with the I/O further reduces your wiring expenditures by eliminating the need for long runs of multi-cores. The integrated design of the Traditional I/O subsystem can eliminate the need for marshalling panels.
This saves you even more in your total capital costs.
The provision of in-line fuses and bussed power saves on installation costs compared with external fuses and power distribution.
Decreases installation time and expense
Plug-and-play installation saves money: All Traditional I/O components plug into the I/O interface carrier. You can install the I/O interface carriers to manage anticipated growth and postpone the I/O interfaces until you’re ready to install your additional field devices.
Phased installation saves time: As soon as you mount the I/O interface carrier, you’re ready to begin installing the field devices. I/O terminal blocks plug directly onto the I/O interface carrier. There is no need to have the I/O cards installed.
Keys: Traditional I/O interfaces and terminal blocks have I/O function keys. These keys ensure that the correct I/O card is always plugged into the corresponding terminal block.
It’s incredibly easy to use and gives you time to do more.
