Selection Guide
Use the table below to select the correct analog input module for your METSO DCS system:
- IOP301 – 4-channel AI, basic diagnostics → Legacy systems, low-density I/O
- IOP302 181524 – 8-channel AI, standard diagnostics → General process control (recommended)
- IOP303 – 8-channel AI, enhanced diagnostics + HART → Safety-critical loops, HART device integration
- IOP304 – 16-channel AI, high-density → Large I/O count applications, new installations
Key selection criteria: channel count, HART support requirement, rack slot availability, and firmware version compatibility with your DCS controller.

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can IOP302 181524 replace IOP302 181525?
A: In most cases yes — 181525 is a hardware revision of 181524 and is backward compatible. Verify firmware version requirements with your DCS engineer.
Q: Is HART communication supported?
A: The standard IOP302 181524 does not natively support HART. For HART-enabled analog input, consider the IOP303 series.
Q: Do you supply refurbished units?
A: We supply both new-old-stock (NOS) and tested refurbished units. Condition is clearly stated on each listing and quotation.
Q: What is the lead time?
A: In-stock units ship within 1–3 business days. Out-of-stock items typically have a 2–6 week lead time depending on sourcing.
Q: Can I return a module if it’s incompatible?
A: Yes. We offer a 30-day return policy for unused modules in original packaging. Contact us before returning.
