Structural Characteristics

  • Standard 1U rack plug-in card structure with dual locking latches on both sides
  • Front panel integrated power, communication, and channel fault LED indicator array
  • Rear edge gold finger connector for direct insertion into ACN backplane slot
  • Separate compartment layout for analog signal circuit and digital bus circuit to avoid cross-interference
  • Independent terminal wiring block for field analog signal cable access

Working Principle

Field 4–20 mA / 0–10 VDC process signals enter isolated signal conditioning circuits, undergo noise filtering via multi-stage RC filter networks, convert analog signals to digital values through 16-bit ADC chips. Processed digital data transmits to rack main controller via internal ACN backplane bus. The L-type enhanced shielding structure suppresses crosstalk induced by long field wiring cables, while hardware open-circuit monitoring circuits continuously verify loop integrity for all 8 channels.

Advantage Highlights

  1. Extended long-distance signal transmission capability without external signal repeaters
  2. Channel independent surge protection reduces single-point failure impact on overall system
  3. Hot-swap design eliminates full rack power shutdown during module replacement
  4. Factory pre-calibrated, zero on-site calibration required after installation
  5. Ultra-wide temperature range adapts to unheated on-site control cabinets
  6. Full mechanical and electrical compatibility with all legacy Metso ACN racks

Applicable Industries

  • Metallurgical mineral processing (flotation, thickener, crushing loop monitoring)
  • Pulp & paper manufacturing (stock flow, bleaching liquor concentration control)
  • Chemical & petrochemical refining (reactor temperature, pressure analog measurement)
  • Municipal industrial wastewater treatment (dissolved oxygen, pH value signal collection)
  • Cement production raw material homogenization monitoring

Installation Requirements

  1. Install exclusively in Metso standard ACN CS series 8/16-slot control rack
  2. Mount module in rack slot with minimum 10 mm vertical ventilation gap between adjacent modules
  3. Field analog signal cables must adopt double-shielded twisted pair wiring; shield single-ended grounded at rack cabinet PE terminal
  4. Cabinet PE grounding resistance ≤ 4 Ω for full EMC performance activation
  5. Confirm rack backplane bus power supply stabilizes at 24 VDC before hot-swapping
  6. Maintain cabinet internal ambient temperature below 55 °C during continuous operation

Operation & Maintenance Precautions

  1. ESD wrist strap and anti-static mat mandatory during module disassembly and wiring
  2. Prevent liquid splashing and conductive dust accumulation on circuit board surface
  3. Conduct annual inspection of terminal block screw tightness to avoid loose signal contact
  4. Do not install adjacent to high-power frequency converter modules to avoid interference
  5. Store spare modules in anti-static sealed packaging with desiccant for humidity control
  6. Cut off field signal terminal power before disassembling wiring terminals
