Honeywell 8C-TAOX61 51306981-175 Series 8 Analog Output Module

Description

The Honeywell 8C-TAOX61 (model 51306981-175) is a high-density analog output module engineered for the Experion PKS Series 8 distributed control architecture. This module interfaces control system logic directly with plant-floor actuators, control valves, and positioners by converting digital controller values into precise analog current or voltage signals. It mounts onto dedicated Series 8 I/O carriers and communicates internally via the system's high-speed I/O link.

Designed for continuous process control environments, the 8C-TAOX61 supports multi-channel output deployment to streamline panel layout and reduce footprint within marshalling cabinets. It incorporates channel-to-channel isolation and diagnostic monitoring to detect open loops, short circuits, and field-power anomalies, feeding status alerts back to the Experion C300 controller or redundant controller architecture.

Features

• Native component of the Honeywell Experion PKS Series 8 I/O platform
• Supports multi-channel analog output configurations for precision control devices
• Provides optical isolation between field outputs and system logic circuitry
• On-board diagnostic reporting for open-circuit and short-circuit fault detection
• Hot-swappable module design permits replacement without shutting down the entire node

Applications

• Proportional control valve positioning in refining and chemical units
• Speed reference generation for variable frequency drives
• Analog setpoint transmission to secondary instrumentation and recorders
• Actuator control loops within continuous process manufacturing
