Process Control Solution – Honeywell 8C-TAIX61 | TotalPlant Solution DCS Series
Where This Product Is Used
The Honeywell 8C-TAIX61 (also listed as 8U-TAIX61, part number 51306977-175) is an Analog Input Module engineered for Honeywell’s TotalPlant Solution (TPS) Distributed Control System. It is deployed across demanding continuous-process industries where precise analog signal acquisition is mission-critical:
- Oil & Gas – upstream wellhead monitoring, midstream pipeline SCADA, refinery process control
- Petrochemical & Chemical Plants – reactor temperature/pressure loop control, feed-rate regulation
- Power Generation – boiler drum-level sensing, turbine inlet parameter monitoring
- Pulp & Paper – digester pressure and consistency control
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing – validated batch process monitoring under FDA 21 CFR Part 11 environments
- Water & Wastewater Treatment – flow, pH, and dissolved-oxygen measurement loops

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the 8C-TAIX61 interchangeable with the 8U-TAIX61?
A: Yes. Both model numbers refer to the same physical module; the prefix difference reflects Honeywell’s internal revision or packaging designation. Both carry part number 51306977-175.
Q: Can this module be used in a Safety Instrumented System (SIS)?
A: The 8C-TAIX61 is a standard TPS I/O module. For SIS applications, consult Honeywell’s Safety Manager documentation and verify SIL rating requirements with your functional safety engineer.
Q: What firmware version does the TPS system need to support this module?
A: Compatibility depends on your TPS release. Contact us with your current NIM/ILC firmware version and we will confirm compatibility before shipment.
Q: Do you provide a Certificate of Conformance (CoC)?
A: Yes, a CoC is available upon request for quality-audited orders. Please specify this requirement at the time of purchase.
Q: Can you supply multiple units for a plant-wide spares program?
A: Yes. We support bulk procurement for MRO spares programs. Contact us for volume pricing and staggered delivery scheduling.
