Westinghouse 1C31181G02 – Analog I/O Module | OVATION DCS Platform
Engineering Background: The Westinghouse 1C31181G02 is a field-proven analog I/O module designed for the OVATION Distributed Control System (DCS) platform, originally developed by Westinghouse Electric and now maintained under the Emerson OVATION product line. This module has been deployed extensively in power generation, nuclear, and process industries where signal integrity and system reliability are non-negotiable.
Product Positioning: Engineered for procurement engineers and control system integrators who require a direct OEM-compatible replacement or spare for existing OVATION DCS installations. The 1C31181G02 delivers stable analog signal conditioning with full backward compatibility within the OVATION I/O subsystem architecture.

Engineering Advantages
- OEM-Compatible: Direct plug-in replacement for existing OVATION I/O chassis — no firmware reconfiguration required in most installations.
- Signal Integrity: Precision analog conditioning minimizes noise and drift in long-run field wiring environments.
- Hot-Swap Capable: Supports live insertion/removal within OVATION redundant I/O configurations (verify with site SOP).
- Long Service Life: Industrial-grade components rated for continuous 24/7 operation in harsh plant environments.
- Backward Compatibility: Compatible with multiple OVATION DCS software revisions, reducing upgrade risk.
System Architecture & Signal Flow
The 1C31181G02 interfaces directly with the OVATION I/O chassis via the proprietary backplane bus. Field analog signals (4–20 mA or voltage) are received at the module’s terminal block, conditioned through onboard signal processing circuitry, and transmitted to the OVATION controller via the I/O bus. The module supports both input acquisition and output command functions within a unified card form factor, reducing spare parts inventory complexity for plant maintenance teams.
Signal Flow: Field Device → Terminal Block → Analog Conditioning → OVATION I/O Bus → OVATION Controller → DCS Operator Station
