Foxboro FBM207

The Foxboro FBM207 is a 16-channel voltage monitor / contact sense input module for the I/A Series and Foxboro Evo systems. It is part of the Compact 200 Series I/O, with each channel galvanically isolated, interfacing field discrete signals to the redundant Fieldbus.

The Foxboro FBM207 is a Discrete Input Module from the Foxboro I/A Series distributed control system (DCS), now part of Schneider Electric (formerly Invensys). It belongs to the FBM (Field Bus Module) family, which provides field I/O functions within the I/A Series architecture. The FBM207 is a discrete (digital) input module used to acquire binary field signals. The exact specifications must be confirmed against official Foxboro/Schneider Electric documentation.

The Foxboro FBM207b, part number P0914WH (also referenced as RH914WH), is a 16-channel Contact Sense Input Interface Module for the I/A Series and Foxboro Evo Distributed Control Systems. It functions as a 16-channel contact sensor, with each channel accepting a 2-wire input from a pair of dry contacts or solid-state switches. The module provides 24 V DC contact wetting voltage directly from the FBM, eliminating the need for external power supplies in contact sensing applications . Each input channel is fully galvanically isolated from other channels and ground, protecting the control system from field-side electrical faults, ground loops, and cross-channel interference. As a main-type Fieldbus Module, it independently connects to the redundant 2 Mbps Fieldbus, ensuring continued communication even if one Fieldbus path fails .
