REMOTE MOUNTING

The FCP270 flattens and simplifies the Foxboro Evo

Process Automation System architecture, which only

requires field enclosures plus workstations and

Ethernet switches. For more information on The

Foxboro Evo control network architecture, refer to

PSS 21H-7C2 B3.

The field-mounted FCP270 is an integral part of the

highly-distributed control network where controllers

are closely aligned to specific process units mounted

in close proximity to their I/O and the actual

equipment being controlled. Coordination between

process units takes place via a fiber optic 100 Mbps

Ethernet network.

The FCP270 is packaged in a rugged, die cast

aluminum housing that does not require venting due

to its efficient design. The FCP270 is CE certified,

and it can be mounted without expensive special

cabinets to prevent electronic emissions. The

FCP270 can be mounted in Class G3 harsh environments.
