HIMA F8627X SIL3 Certified Ethernet Communication Module for HIQUAD Safety System

Product Description

F8627X is a safety-grade redundant communication module launched by German HIMA, specially matched with H41q/H51q HIQUAD safety controller platform, fully certified IEC61508 SIL3 

safety integrity level.

It is the core data interaction gateway of SIS safety instrument system, equipped with dual 100BASE-TX Ethernet ports, RS232 and serial bus interfaces, supporting Modbus TCP, HSR redundancy 

ring network and HIMA internal safety backplane bus communication. It realizes program downloading via ELOP II software, safety logic data uploading to upper DCS system and cross-controller 

redundant data synchronization. With complete hardware self-diagnosis and fault voting mechanism, it supports hot-swap replacement, widely used as maintenance spare part for petrochemical ESD 

emergency shutdown, gas plant fire & gas interlock and power plant boiler safety protection systems.
