DCS Network Expansion Solution – Honeywell CC-INWE01 | Experion PKS C300 Series
Where This Product Is Used
The Honeywell CC-INWE01 Network Expansion Module is deployed in Experion PKS (Process Knowledge System) distributed control architectures wherever engineers need to extend the Fault-Tolerant Ethernet (FTE) network reach of a C300 Controller chassis. Typical installation environments include:
- Oil & Gas Refineries – expanding I/O node connectivity across large process units (CDU, HDS, FCC)
- Petrochemical & Chemical Plants – linking remote CIOM/CHARM cabinets to the main controller ring
- Power Generation Facilities – integrating boiler management and turbine control I/O segments
- Pulp & Paper Mills – extending network segments across geographically distributed process areas
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing – supporting validated DCS topologies requiring redundant network paths
- LNG & Offshore Platforms – harsh-environment installations requiring certified, compact modules
Wherever a C300 controller must communicate with additional CIOM-A or CHARM I/O Link modules beyond the base chassis capacity, the CC-INWE01 provides the certified, plug-and-play network expansion path.

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- Seamless FTE Integration – Maintains the dual-redundant Ethernet topology required for SIL-rated and high-availability loops without additional switches or media converters.
- Plug-and-Play Chassis Fit – Slots directly into the C300 chassis backplane; no external wiring or configuration files required for hardware recognition.
- Scalable I/O Architecture – Allows engineers to add CIOM-A or CHARM I/O Link segments incrementally, protecting capital investment as process requirements grow.
- Reduced Engineering Risk – Factory-tested and Honeywell-certified; eliminates compatibility uncertainty common with third-party network adapters.
- Compact Form Factor – Minimizes cabinet real estate in space-constrained marshalling rooms and offshore enclosures.
- Long Product Lifecycle – Supported under Honeywell’s Extended Lifecycle Program, ensuring spare parts availability for 10+ year plant lifecycles.

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the CC-INWE01 compatible with Experion PKS R500 and later releases?
A: Yes. The module is backward and forward compatible across Experion PKS R400 through R500+ releases. Always verify firmware revision requirements in the Honeywell release notes for your specific R-level.
Q: Can the CC-INWE01 be used with the C200 or C200E controller?
A: No. The CC-INWE01 is designed exclusively for the C300 controller chassis backplane. C200/C200E systems use a different network expansion architecture.
Q: How many CC-INWE01 modules can be installed per C300 chassis?
A: Refer to the Honeywell C300 Controller Hardware Planning Guide (document 51-52-25-109) for the maximum number of expansion modules per chassis slot configuration.
Q: Does this module support redundant network paths?
A: Yes. The CC-INWE01 participates in the FTE dual-ring topology, providing automatic failover at the network layer with no process interruption.
Q: What is the warranty on units supplied by Konmask.com?
A: All units carry a 12-month warranty from date of shipment. Extended warranty and on-site support contracts are available on request.
