DeltaV S-series Hardware
Focus on what needs to be done rather than how
DeltaV S-series hardware adds I/O on Demand functionality to all the proven technology found in the M-series controller. With “hot-swappable” capabilities, you can add controllers, I/O cards, field devices, and workstations while the system is powered and running. Expand and upgrade your system with no downtime. The S-series' exterior hardware design delivers easy snap-in installation that prevents bent pins and over–tightening onto rails, and releases with the push of a button.
The S-series Hardware platform offers I/O on Demand functionality, so that intensive I/O or Bus pre-engineering work can be eliminated and even late project I/O and process design change orders can completely disappear. S-series Hardware is built rugged to be mounted almost anywhere, including hazardous environments like Class1, Division 2 / Zone 2 Group A,B,C,D. The Operating temperature range for most of the S-series Hardware Components is -40°C to +70°C, which makes it suitable for temperature extremes.
S-series Hardware can be mounted on a Horizontal Carrier System that has the field power distribution built in. Therefore, marshalling and cross-wiring of power and grounding for Foundation Fieldbus segments are already taken care of — even if redundancy is desired. The S-series Power Integrated Fieldbus H1 Card is a product that clearly reduces the complexity of Foundation Fieldbus Segments by benefitting from these features.
