Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to determine whether the 1C31179G01 or an alternative is the right choice for your application:
- Step 1 – Identify Signal Type: Confirm whether your field signals are analog (4–20 mA, voltage) or digital (discrete on/off). Match to the correct I/O module type.
- Step 2 – Check Channel Count: Verify the number of I/O channels required per module against your P&ID and loop list.
- Step 3 – Confirm Rack Slot: Ensure the module is compatible with your existing Ovation I/O rack slot type and backplane revision.
- Step 4 – Review Firmware Version: Match the module firmware to your Ovation controller software version to avoid compatibility issues.
- Step 5 – Assess Condition Requirements: Decide between new OEM stock, certified refurbished, or exchange units based on budget and lead time.
- Step 6 – Contact Konmask: Share your system details with our team for a verified recommendation before purchase.
