KONGSBERG RDIO420S 316564 Remote Digital I/O Module – K-Chief Automation Series
When a critical Remote Digital I/O module fails aboard a vessel or within an offshore installation, the consequences cascade instantly: alarm systems go blind, control loops lose their feedback signals, and operators are left managing complex machinery without the digital eyes and ears they depend on. In high-stakes marine and offshore environments, even minutes of unplanned downtime translate into safety risks, regulatory non-compliance, and significant financial loss. The KONGSBERG RDIO420S 316564 is the precision-engineered solution that keeps these systems running without interruption.
Within the KONGSBERG K-Chief marine automation ecosystem, the RDIO420S occupies a foundational role as a distributed remote I/O node, bridging field-level digital signals with the central automation controller. Its part number 316564 identifies it as a specific hardware revision within the RDIO420 family, widely deployed across KONGSBERG K-Chief 500 and K-Chief 600 integrated automation systems on commercial vessels, offshore platforms, and naval applications worldwide. KONGSBERG’s K-Chief platform is recognized globally as one of the most trusted integrated automation and safety systems in the maritime industry.
