CC-PUIO31   Series C Universal IO Module-2

Universal Signal conditioning assembly FC-USCH01 (AC 120/250Vac solutions) is a DIN rail mounted integrated back plane which can host 16 compatible signal conditioning relay modules which can be either input or output type, to provide suitable interface field terminals with AC connections. FC-USCH01 integrates with DCS/ Safety manager through a single mass termination cable (MTC) at safe area and provides dedicated screw terminals for each of the channels for field side cabling to connect Line and Neutral terminals. FC-USCH01 is equipped with built in fuse of M20 X 5mm type for each field side interface, specific fuse rating can be chosen based upon field requirement.

The unique features of Series C I/O include:
• I/O Module and field terminations are combined in the same area. The I/O Module is plugged into the IOTA to eliminate the need for a separate chassis to hold the electronics assemblies.
• Two level “detachable” terminals for landing the field wiring in the enclosure, providing easier plant installation and maintenance.
• Field power is supplied through the IOTA, with no need for extra power supplies and the associated craft wired marshalling.
• Redundancy is available directly on the IOTA without any external cabling or redundancy control devices, by simply adding a second IOM to an IOTA.
• The Series C innovative styling is one of its unique features. This styling includes features to facilitate the effective use of control hardware in a systems environment. These features include:
• Vertical mounting for more effective wiring since most field wiring applications require entry from the top or bottom of the systems cabinet.
• An “information circle” for a quick visual cue to draw the Maintenance Technician’s eye to important status information.
• “Tilted” design for effective heat management within the cabinet enclosure. Since Series C allows for a significant increase in cabinet density, an effective heat management system is critical for high systems availability.
• Input and output circuits are protected from shorts to alleviate the need for in-line fusing, reducing installation and maintenance costs.
