HONEYWELL 10006/2/1 Data Backup Module with Real-Time Clock – TDC 3000 Series
When a Data Backup Module fails in a live DCS environment, the consequences are immediate and severe: process historians lose synchronization, control loops lose their parameter snapshots, and operators face the prospect of manually re-entering thousands of configuration points during an unplanned shutdown. In petrochemical plants and power generation facilities, that scenario translates directly into production losses measured in tens of thousands of dollars per hour. The HONEYWELL 10006/2/1 exists precisely to prevent that failure mode — it is the memory and timekeeping backbone of the TDC 3000 distributed control architecture.
Within the TDC 3000 product family, the 10006/2/1 occupies a critical infrastructure role rather than a process-control role. It does not execute PID loops or drive I/O; instead, it ensures that every other module in the system has a consistent, battery-backed data store and an authoritative real-time clock reference. This design philosophy — separating timekeeping and backup from process execution — reflects Honeywell’s approach to fault-tolerant DCS architecture that has made TDC 3000 one of the most widely deployed legacy control platforms in continuous-process industries worldwide.

- Industry standard reference: IEC 61511 (Functional Safety – Safety Instrumented Systems) for applicable installations
Key Features & Benefits
- Battery-Backed Real-Time Clock – Maintains accurate system time across power cycles, eliminating timestamp drift in process historians and event logs that would otherwise require manual correction after every outage.
- Non-Volatile Data Retention – SRAM backed by internal lithium cell retains configuration snapshots and tuning parameters; plants report recovery times under 15 minutes versus 4–8 hours for full manual re-entry after a cold restart.
- Direct Backplane Integration – No external wiring or dedicated power feed required; the module draws from the TDC 3000 backplane, reducing installation complexity and eliminating a potential single-point wiring failure.
- Drop-In Replacement Compatibility – Mechanically and electrically interchangeable with the original Honeywell factory module; no firmware update or system reconfiguration required upon swap-out, meeting IEC 61511 management-of-change requirements for like-for-like replacement.
- Extended Service Life Support – Supports continued operation of TDC 3000 installations beyond OEM end-of-life, deferring capital expenditure on full DCS migration projects that typically cost USD 2–5 million per unit.
- Traceable Quality Documentation – Each unit supplied with functional test report and, where available, original Honeywell serialization records, supporting IEC 62381 (FAT/SAT) documentation requirements.
Industry & Equipment Applications
- Oil & Gas – Upstream: Wellhead control panels and SCADA gateway nodes running TDC 3000 where RTC accuracy is mandatory for production allocation reporting and regulatory compliance.
- Oil & Gas – Downstream / Refining: Crude distillation units and hydrotreater control rooms where DCS configuration backup prevents multi-day restart procedures following unplanned shutdowns.
- Petrochemical & Chemical: Continuous reactor control systems (ethylene crackers, ammonia synthesis loops) where parameter loss during a power event would require full process re-qualification before restart.
- Power Generation: Coal-fired and combined-cycle gas turbine (CCGT) plant DCS cabinets where TDC 3000 manages boiler sequencing and turbine protection logic requiring synchronized timestamps for post-event analysis.
- Pulp & Paper: Recovery boiler and digester control systems operating 24/7 where scheduled maintenance windows for DCS module replacement are measured in minutes, not hours.
- Pharmaceuticals & Fine Chemicals: Batch process control environments under FDA 21 CFR Part 11 where audit trail integrity depends on an uninterrupted, accurate real-time clock reference.
System Integration & Compatible Parts
Upstream / Host Components:
- Honeywell TDC 3000 Universal Control Network (UCN) Highway Interface Module
- Honeywell Local Control Network (LCN) Node cards
- TDC 3000 Power Supply Modules (redundant pair configuration)
Downstream / Dependent Components:
- Honeywell Advanced Process Manager (APM) and High-Performance Process Manager (HPM) cards that rely on the DBM for configuration backup
- Honeywell Data Hiway Interface (DHI) modules
Equivalent / Substitute Models:
- 10006/2/2 – Later revision of the same DBM family; functionally equivalent for most installations. Verify backplane slot assignment and firmware revision compatibility before substitution.
- 10006/1/1 – Earlier revision; may lack RTC battery life of the /2/1 variant. Confirm RTC specification with your system integrator prior to use in time-critical applications.
Note: All substitutions should be validated against the site-specific TDC 3000 system configuration document and change management procedure.
Our Quality Assurance Process
Every HONEYWELL 10006/2/1 unit supplied by Konmask.com passes a four-stage inspection protocol before shipment:
- Visual & Mechanical Inspection: Board-level examination for component damage, corrosion, bent pins, and counterfeit indicators (silkscreen consistency, component date codes, PCB layer markings).
- Functional Power-On Test: Module is energized in a compatible TDC 3000 test chassis; RTC oscillator frequency, battery voltage, and SRAM read/write integrity are verified against Honeywell factory test parameters.
- Burn-In & Thermal Cycling: Extended power-on soak at elevated temperature to screen for early-life component failures before the unit reaches your facility.
- Final Documentation & Packaging: Unit is cleaned, ESD-bagged, and packed with anti-static foam. Test report is generated and attached to the shipment.
Available Documentation: Functional test report · Certificate of conformance · Original Honeywell serialization label (where present) · Packing list with part number and revision confirmation

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the HONEYWELL 10006/2/1 compatible with all TDC 3000 system revisions, and what should I check before ordering?
A: The 10006/2/1 is designed for the TDC 3000 platform and is compatible with the majority of system revisions. Before ordering, confirm your backplane slot designation (some later TDC 3000 configurations reserve specific slots for DBM modules) and verify that your system firmware revision does not require a specific DBM hardware revision. Share your system configuration document with our team and we will confirm compatibility before you commit.
Q: Can I use the HONEYWELL 10006/2/1 as a direct replacement for a failed DBM without a full system shutdown?
A: In most TDC 3000 configurations, the DBM slot does not support hot-swap replacement — a controlled shutdown of the affected node is required. However, the replacement procedure is typically brief (15–30 minutes) compared to the hours required to recover from an unprotected data loss event. Our team can provide the relevant Honeywell service bulletin reference for your specific system revision upon request.
Q: What is the typical lead time for the HONEYWELL 10006/2/1, and do you hold stock for emergency plant-down situations?
A: Lead time depends on current stock levels, which fluctuate. We maintain a standing inventory of high-demand TDC 3000 modules and prioritize plant-down orders. Submit your inquiry with “URGENT” in the subject line and our team will provide a same-day stock confirmation and expedited shipping options including next-flight-out air freight where available.
