Discrete Input Solution – Foxboro P0916SG-0B | I/A Series Contact Sense PLC Module
Where This Product Is Used
The Foxboro P0916SG-0B Contact Sense Module is deployed in mission-critical industrial environments where reliable discrete input acquisition is non-negotiable. Typical application sites include:
- Oil & Gas Processing Plants – Monitoring valve open/close status, emergency shutdown (ESD) contact states, and pump run/stop feedback in upstream and downstream facilities.
- Chemical & Petrochemical Facilities – Reading dry-contact signals from safety interlocks, pressure switches, and level switches integrated into SIL-rated control loops.
- Power Generation & Utilities – Capturing breaker status, relay contact feedback, and turbine protection signals within distributed control architectures.
- Pulp & Paper Mills – Interfacing with motor control centers (MCCs) and conveyor limit switches for process sequencing and fault detection.
- Water & Wastewater Treatment – Monitoring pump status, valve position, and flow switch contacts across remote field stations connected to a central I/A Series DCS.
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing – Acquiring contact signals from clean-room equipment, agitator status, and batch process interlocks under cGMP-compliant control systems.
