Modular and flexible construction: The S-series traditional

I/O subsystem is designed with your investment in mind.

Each controller supports up to eight I/O carriers that form a

robust, passive bus for up to 64 I/O interfaces. Each interface

has a matching I/O terminal block and can be installed in any

I/O slot on the bus. Carriers and interfaces can be added online,

without interruption to the existing I/O communication.

This modular design enables you to purchase the exact

amount of I/O cards, eight-wide carriers, power/controllers,

and two-wide carriers you need and add more DeltaV I/O

as your system grows.

The integrated bus is divided

into primary and secondary power for odd- and even-numbered

slots. Each slot is individually fused to protect power to other

cards. This significantly reduces the external power distribution

circuits while still providing each card with fused 24V DC bussed

field power.
