Honeywell 8C-TDOD61 / 51306973-175 – 8-Channel Digital Output Module | TotalPlant TPS / PlantScape DCS Platform
Engineering Background
The Honeywell 8C-TDOD61 (alternate part number 51306973-175) is an 8-channel transistor digital output (DO) module engineered for the Honeywell TotalPlant Solution (TPS) and PlantScape distributed control system platforms. Designed to interface directly with field actuators, solenoid valves, motor starters, and discrete control devices, this module delivers reliable, high-density digital output capability within the Honeywell C200/C300 and legacy TPS cabinet architectures.
Product Positioning
Targeted at process industries requiring deterministic discrete control — including refining, petrochemical, power generation, and pharmaceutical manufacturing — the 8C-TDOD61 is a proven field-replaceable unit (FRU) that maintains backward compatibility with existing TPS I/O bus infrastructure. Procurement engineers sourcing replacement or expansion modules will find this unit a direct drop-in for installed TPS systems without firmware or configuration changes.

System Architecture & Signal Flow
The 8C-TDOD61 occupies a standard TPS I/O card cage slot and communicates with the Honeywell C200/C300 controller or legacy TPS Highway Interface Module (HIM) via the proprietary TPS I/O bus. Control commands from the DCS controller are decoded by the module’s onboard logic, which drives each of the 8 transistor output channels independently. Field wiring connects to the associated field termination assembly (FTA) via the backplane, maintaining full signal integrity and isolation. Fault status is reported back to the controller and surfaced in the Experion/TPS operator station HMI.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the 8C-TDOD61 compatible with Experion PKS?
A: Yes, when used with legacy TPS I/O infrastructure connected to an Experion PKS system via the C200/C300 controller and appropriate I/O Link.
Q: What is the difference between 8C-TDOD61 and 51306973-175?
A: These are the same module — 8C-TDOD61 is the functional model number and 51306973-175 is the Honeywell catalog/order number. Both refer to the identical hardware.
Q: Can this module be hot-swapped?
A: Hot-swap capability depends on the TPS cabinet configuration and controller firmware version. Consult your Honeywell TPS system documentation or contact Konmask technical support before performing live replacement.
Q: Do you provide a Certificate of Conformance (CoC)?
A: Yes, a CoC is available upon request for all units shipped from Konmask.com.
Q: What FTA (Field Termination Assembly) is required?
A: The 8C-TDOD61 requires the corresponding Honeywell TPS digital output FTA for your cabinet type. Contact us with your cabinet model for a matched FTA recommendation.
