Field Communication commubox FXA 191


Intrinsically safe interface for Smart transmitters Converts INTENSOR and HART protocols to RS-232C signals

Application The Commubox FXA 191 connects intrinsically safe Smart transmitters with INTENSOR or HART protocol to the serial port of a personal computer. This allows the transmitters to be remotely configured using the Endress+Hauser operating program Commuwin II. A slide switch is used to switch protocols (factory setting INTENSOR). The Commubox is powered over the serial port. If the computer, e.g. a notebook or laptop, is unable to supply enough power, the Commubox can be supplied with an external power pack.

Technical Data Power supply: Either from RS-232C port or external power pack (accessory) Electrical Connection: 9-pin DIN female connector for computer; 4 mm plug terminals for transmitter, polarity protected, supply (optional): clinch socket, 9 VAC/VDC, polarity protected Intrinsic safety: [EEx ia] IIC BVS 95.D.2060 X for connection to intrinsically circuits EEx ia IIC with voltages up to 30 V Ambient conditions: Operating range: -20C+50C Storage: -40C85C Humidity: 0%95% (no condensation) Dimensions: Housing: 143 x 60 x 30 mm plastic housing for industrial use

Features and Benefits Simple connection of HART and INTENSOR transmitters to a personal computer Intrinsically safe input Powered from serial interface Suitable for Commuwin II operating program.
