Honeywell 51196728-100

Product Introduction The 51196728-100 is a Dual Node File Module (redundant controller with on‑board file storage) for the Honeywell TDC3000/TPS DCS. It integrates dual‑node processing and mass storage to host system databases, control programs, and historical data, acting as a core redundant node for high‑availability process control.

Description

Model Explanation

  • 51196728: Base part number for TDC3000 dual‑node file controller

  • ‑100: Standard revision (factory default, basic I/O and storage config)

Technical Parameters

  • Device Type: Redundant dual‑node processor + file storage module

  • Compatibility: Honeywell TDC3000 / TPS Distributed Control System

  • Processor: 32‑bit industrial CPU (dual core, 1:1 hot standby)

  • Memory: On‑board RAM + non‑volatile flash (system/program storage)

  • Storage: Integrated hard disk (for system databases, history, logs)

  • Redundancy: Hot standby, automatic failover < 500 ms

  • Communication: LCN (Local Control Network) interface

  • Operating Temp: 0 °C to +60 °C

  • Humidity: 5%–95%, non‑condensing

  • Dimensions (W×H×D): 19” rack‑mount, approx. 483 mm × 260 mm × 80 mm

  • Weight: Approx. 13 kg

  • Certifications: CE, UL, CSA

  • MTBF: > 100,000 hours (24/7 industrial operation)

Interface & Communication Configuration

  • LCN Port: Connects to TDC3000 LCN (control network)

  • Redundancy Link: Internal high‑speed sync between dual nodes

  • Status LEDs: Power, Run, Fault, Sync, LCN Activity (front panel)

  • Expansion: Optional I/O or communication slots (system‑dependent)

Core Functions

  • Redundant Control & Storage: Dual‑node design with integrated file storage for zero‑downtime operation

  • System Database Hosting: Stores TDC3000 configuration, control programs, and historical data

  • Real‑Time Processing: Executes control loops, logic, and data acquisition

  • LCN Network Communication: Interfaces with GUS, controllers, and I/O nodes

  • Hot Standby Failover: Seamless switch to standby node during primary failure

Application Scope

  • Honeywell TDC3000/TPS DCS (core redundant controller + file node)

  • Critical process industries: power, oil & gas, refining, chemical, petrochemical

  • Plants requiring 99.999% uptime and integrated system storage

  • 19” rack‑mounted control rooms with LCN infrastructure

Operation & Maintenance Instructions

  • Install in standard 19” rack; ensure front/rear ventilation

  • Connect LCN cable and redundancy sync cable before power‑on

  • Check LEDs: “Run” solid = normal; “Fault” blinking = diagnostics required

  • Maintain ambient temp < 60 °C; avoid moisture and direct heat

  • Replace only with Honeywell‑certified 51196728‑100 modules
