FOXBORO AD916AE Product Brief Description

The FOXBORO AD916AE is a termination assembly base unit for Foxboro I/A Series DCS FBM field bus modules. It acts as the field wiring terminal interface between FBM I/O cards and external field instruments, providing screw terminal blocks for analog and discrete signal wiring. It integrates built-in fuse protection and signal conditioning circuits, converting raw field wiring signals for the FBM module, and works together with AD908 series pre-terminated internal cables for rack cabinet signal routing.
