FP303

Profibus PA to Pneumatic Signal Converter

 

 

The FP303 is a converter mainly intended for interface of a PROFIBUS system to a pneumatically actuated control valve, or a positioner. The FP303 produces a default 3~15 psi (0.2~1.0 kg/cm2 ) or extended 3~30 (0,2~2,1 kg/cm2) psi output, proportional to an input received over the PROFIBUS PA network.

The digital technology used in the FP303 enables an easy interface between the field and the control room and also includes several interesting features that considerably reduce the installation, operation and maintenance costs.
