Foxboro FCP270 P0917YZ Field Control Processor Module

The Foxboro FCP270 P0917YZ is a field control processor module designed for use in industrial automation systems, especially within the Invensys I/A Series2. It works together with connected Fieldbus Modules (FBMs) to perform regulatory, logic, timing, and sequential control. Meanwhile, it is responsible for data acquisition, alarm detection, and notification1. It supports infrared communication, which is suitable for applications requiring remote configuration or monitoring2. With its versatile control algorithms and a wide range of FBMs, it can provide control capabilities for a variety of process applications1. The fault – tolerant version of this module consists of two processor modules with an integrated inter – connect fault – tolerant connector on the baseplate, which greatly improves reliability compared to other process controllers3.
