Core Functions

  1. 16‑Channel High‑Level Analog Input: Acquires 4–20 mA/1–5 VDC signals from pressure, temperature, flow transmitters.

  2. Signal Conditioning: Built‑in 250 Ω shunts for current‑to‑voltage conversion; EMI/RFI filtering.

  3. STI Support: Enables communication with smart transmitters for enhanced diagnostics and data.

  4. Basic Isolation: 500 VAC channel‑to‑backplane isolation protects DCS from field noise and ground loops.

  5. High Accuracy & Resolution: 16‑bit resolution with ±0.1% FS accuracy for precise process monitoring.

  6. Backplane‑Powered: Eliminates external power supplies; draws power from UCN backplane.

Application Scenarios

  • Process Industries: Chemical, petrochemical, power generation, pulp & paper (analog sensor monitoring).

  • High‑Level Signal Acquisition: Transmitters (4–20 mA), voltage‑based sensors, process indicators.

  • Legacy DCS Systems: Replacement/expansion for TDC3000/TPS and Experion PKS needing 16‑channel HLAI with STI.

  • Smart Device Integration: Plants using Honeywell STI for intelligent transmitter communication.

Compatibility Note

  • Form‑factor compatible with Size C UCN FTAs (e.g., 51304446 DO series, 51304451 DO Standby).

  • Functionally compatible with Honeywell TDC3000/TPS and Experion PKS (via UCN IOP).

  • Key Difference from 51304453‑100: 51304453‑150 (MC‑TAIH02) adds STI support for smart transmitters; 51304453‑100 (MU‑TAIH02) is standard HLAI without STI.
