HIMA F6213 (4-channel analog input module, old model F62 chassis)

Location: 4-channel safety analog input module (AI) of the SIS system in the HIMA F62 (HIMax) chassis (SIL3 certified), discontinued, predecessor / simplified version of F6217 (8-channel).

I. Basic Information 

Model: F6213

Brand/series: HIMA Black Horse / F62 (HIMax) Rack

Function: 4-channel safety analog input (AI)

Safety level: SIL3, AK6, PL e/Cat.4

Status: Out of production / Older model. Current project spare parts are available. New projects recommend F6217 or F60MI2401

Installation: Standard slots of F62 rack (4TE wide)

II. Core Parameters

Channels: 4 analog input channels (single-ended / differential selectable)

Signal types: 4-20mA (current), 0-10V (voltage)

Resolution: 12 bits

Sampling rate: 100ms/channel (configurable)

Isolation: Channel-to-channel / bus-to-bus photoelectric isolation, with a withstand voltage of 1500Vrms

Self-diagnosis: Open circuit / short circuit / overrange detection, fail-safe shutdown

Power supply: 24VDC (18–32V), rack bus power supply

Power consumption: ≤150mA

Operating temperature: 0℃ ~ +60℃

Size / Weight: 120mm×75mm×20mm / approximately 0.36kg

III. Comparison with Series Models

F6213: 4-channel AI, discontinued model, used for F62 rack

F6217: 8-channel AI, mainstream in use, parameters compatible with F6213, universal for F62 rack

F6220: 8-channel AI, new model, with Ethernet / RS485, universal for F62 rack

F60MI2401: F60 series mixed I/O (including AI), preferred for new projects

IV. Typical Applications

Old factory SIS/ESD renovation (F62 rack)

4-20mA signal acquisition for temperature (PT100), pressure, level, etc.

Boiler BMS, fire and gas F&G system, chemical interlock control

V. Replacement Suggestions

Replacement parts (F62 rack): Prefer F6217 (8 channels, compatible for direct replacement)

New system (without F62 rack): Select F60MI2401 (F60 series, more powerful, higher versatility)
