Core functions and technical parameters
Signal type support
Input channel:
4-channel analog input (supporting 4-20mA, 0-10V, or thermistor/thermocouple signals).
4-channel digital input (supports dry or wet contacts, can be configured as source/drain type).
Output channel:
4-channel analog output (4-20mA or 0-10V, with load driving capability).
4-channel digital output (relay or transistor output, supporting high voltage/current drive).
communication interface
Standard protocols: Modbus RTU (RS-485), Hart (optional).
Scalability: Supports EtherNet/IP and Profinet (requires optional communication gateway).
Configuration method: via Honeywell Expert PKS software or handheld programmer.
Electrical characteristics
Power input: 24V DC (redundant power supply optional).
Power consumption: Typical value 5W (≤ 10W at full load).
Isolation level: 3000V AC isolation between input/output channels, in compliance with IEC 61158-2 standard.
Environmental adaptability
Working temperature:- 40 ° C to 70 ° C (wide temperature design).
Protection level: IP20 (indoor installation), optional IP65 protective cover.
Mechanical dimensions: approximately 120mm (width) x 90mm (height) x 60mm (depth).
Key functional features
Signal isolation and conversion
Implement electrical isolation between on-site signals and control systems to avoid interference from grounding loops.
Support conversion of different signal types (such as converting 4-20mA to 0-10V).
diagnosis and monitoring
Provide channel status LED indication (such as overvoltage, disconnection, short circuit detection).
Support reading diagnostic information such as module temperature and power supply status through communication interfaces.
Redundancy and Expansion
Support dual channel redundant power supply to enhance system reliability.
Multiple modules can be cascaded (connected through daisy chain) to expand the number of I/O points.
safety certification
Compliant with ATEX Zone 2 and IECEx (applicable to explosion-proof areas).
Obtained international safety certifications such as UL, CE, FCC, etc.
Typical application scenarios
process control
Connect temperature sensors (such as PT100) and pressure transmitters (4-20mA) to the DCS system.
Control actuators such as valves and pumps (through analog or digital output).
Building Automation
Monitor temperature and humidity sensors in the HVAC system, control fans and water valves.
Digital input for integrated security systems such as access control and smoke detectors.
Remote I/O Expansion
As a distributed I/O module, deployed in control cabinets or on-site junction boxes to reduce wiring costs.
User core focus points
Configuration tool
Module configuration requires the use of Honeywell Uniformity PHD or Expert Station.
Support integration into third-party HMI/SCADA systems through FDT/DTM technology.
compatibility
Compatible with control systems such as Honeywell ControlEdge PLC and Expert PKS.
Can be connected to third-party devices (such as Siemens, Rockwell PLC) through Modbus TCP gateway.
Maintenance suggestions
Regularly check the tightness of the wiring terminals to avoid poor contact.
Utilize module self diagnostic function to remotely monitor health status through communication interface.
Alternative and upgrade suggestions
Alternative model: If higher channel density is required, FC-QPP-0004 (8-channel I/O) can be considered.
Function extension: Add FC-QPP-ETH communication module to achieve EtherNet/IP network integration.
Security upgrade: Optional SIL 2/3 certification module to meet functional safety requirements (such as IEC 61508).
