FBMSVL
Foxboro FBMSVL Safety Interlock Module
Product Description
The FBMSVL is a safety-oriented interlock module designed for Foxboro’s I/A Series distributed control system (DCS), specializing in monitoring and enforcing safety interlock logic in industrial processes. Its primary role is to supervise critical safety functions, such as emergency shutdown (ESD) triggers, equipment interlocks, and process safety limits, ensuring that industrial systems operate within predefined safe parameters. This module is widely deployed in high-risk industries including oil and gas (refinery safety systems), chemical processing (reactor overpressure protection), and power generation (boiler safety interlocks), where failure to maintain safety could lead to catastrophic accidents.
In a typical refinery application, the FBMSVL continuously monitors variables like pipe pressure, fluid temperature, and valve positions. If any parameter exceeds safe thresholds (e.g., pressure spikes beyond design
