Honeywell IP-PI-OI24 — 24-Channel Digital I/O Module | PlantScape / Experion PKS
Engineering Background
The Honeywell IP-PI-OI24 is a high-density digital I/O module engineered for Honeywell’s PlantScape and Experion PKS distributed control system platforms. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of continuous-process industries, this module provides 24 configurable digital channels that interface directly with field devices including solenoid valves, motor starters, limit switches, and discrete sensors. Its compact form factor and robust signal handling make it a preferred choice for brownfield expansions and greenfield DCS deployments alike.
Product Positioning
The IP-PI-OI24 occupies the I/O subsystem layer of the Honeywell Experion PKS architecture, serving as the critical bridge between the process field and the controller. Procurement engineers sourcing replacement or expansion modules will find this unit fully compatible with existing PlantScape cabinets and Experion C200/C300 controller families, minimizing integration risk and commissioning time.

- Hot-Swap Capability: Supports online replacement within Experion PKS chassis without process shutdown (verify with site SOP).
- Optical Isolation: Per-group channel isolation protects controller backplane from field-side transients and ground loops.
- Seamless Platform Integration: Native compatibility with Honeywell Control Builder configuration environment — no third-party drivers required.
- Redundancy Support: Compatible with redundant I/O link configurations for SIL-rated applications.
- Diagnostic Transparency: Channel-level fault diagnostics surfaced directly in Experion Station HMI for rapid fault isolation.
System Architecture & Signal Flow
The IP-PI-OI24 resides in the I/O Link subsystem of the Experion PKS architecture. Field wiring terminates at the module’s marshalling terminals or associated FTA (Field Termination Assembly). Digital signals are conditioned, optically isolated, and transmitted over the C-Bus or FTE network to the C200/C300 controller. The controller executes configured logic and returns output commands to the module within the defined scan cycle. Redundant I/O link configurations route signals through dual paths, ensuring no single point of failure at the I/O layer.
Signal path: Field Device → FTA / Terminal Block → IP-PI-OI24 → C-Bus / FTE → C200/C300 Controller → Experion PKS Server → Operator Station

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the IP-PI-OI24 compatible with Experion PKS R500 and later releases?
A: Compatibility depends on the firmware revision of the module. Konmask will verify the hardware revision against your Experion release before shipment. Contact us with your system release number.
Q: Can this module replace an IP-PI-OI16 in an existing chassis?
A: The IP-PI-OI24 and IP-PI-OI16 occupy the same card slot form factor but differ in channel count and configuration. A Control Builder configuration update is required. Consult your Honeywell system integrator before substitution.
Q: Do you supply the associated FTA (Field Termination Assembly)?
A: Yes. Matching FTAs for the IP-PI-OI24 are available. Specify your cabinet layout and we will confirm the correct FTA part number.
Q: What is the typical lead time for in-stock units?
A: In-stock units ship within 2–3 business days of order confirmation. Out-of-stock lead times are quoted individually, typically 2–6 weeks depending on sourcing channel.
Q: Can you provide a test report or functional verification certificate?
A: Yes. A functional test report is available upon request at time of order. Please specify this requirement in your RFQ.
