Compact FBM214b, HART® Communication Input Interface Module
The Compact FBM214b HART® Communication Input Interface Module provides eight input channels, each
accepting a 4 to 20mA analog signal or a digital HART signal superimposed on a 4 to 20 mA analog input
signal.
Eight analog input channels, each accepting one Support for the HART universal commands
of the following inputs: necessary to interface the field device with the
• Standard 4 to 20 mA analog sensor signal Foxboro Evo™ Control Core Services system
database
• Digital HART Frequency Shift Keying (FSK)
signal superimposed on a 4 to 20 mA analog Per channel galvanic isolation of each of the 8
input signal. input channels from each other, ground and
FSK modem dedicated to each input channel for module logic
bi-directional digital communications with a Compact, rugged design suitable for enclosure in
HART field device Class G3 (harsh) environments

NOTES:
1. For detailed information on balun use and installation, refer to “Using the Cable Balun Module with Intelligent Transmitters”
in System Equipment Installation (Reference 6).
2. Cable balun used only when multiple loops are connected to a common power supply. The FBM negative terminals
connect directly to the minus (-) terminal of the power supply. The balun system side negative (-) terminals
(2, 4, 6, and 8) connect to the power supply positive terminals when there are 4 (maximum) power loops.
3. For hazardous environments, install an intrinsic safety barrier such as an MTL 787S+ between the balun wiring to
limit the amount of energy in the wiring.
4. A user-supplied capacitor can be installed across the external power supply(ies) to shunt ac power.
5. The external power supply can be redundant power supplies in parallel.
6. For this transmitter connection, use twisted-pair wiring inside a shielded cable with the shield grounded at the Foxboro Evo
or I/A Series system end.

(1) The maximum allowable distance decreases when the loop is operated through an intrinsic safety barrier. The maximum distance of
the field device from the FBM is a function of compliance voltage, wire gauge and voltage drop at the device.

Type Certification(a)
Type 1 TAs are UL/UL-C listed as suitable for use in Class I; Groups A-D; Division 2 temperature code
T4 hazardous locations. They are CENELEC (DEMKO) certified Ex nA IIC T4 for use in Zone 2
potentially explosive atmospheres.
Type 2 TAs are UL/UL-C listed as associated apparatus for supplying non-incendive field circuits
Class I; Groups A-D; Division 2 hazardous locations when connected to specified DIN rail
mounted FBMs and field circuits meeting entity parameter constraints specified in DIN Rail
Mounted Subsystem User’s Guide (Reference 5). They are also CENELEC (DEMKO) certified
as associated apparatus for supplying field circuits for Group IIC, Zone 2 potentially explosive
atmospheres. Field circuits are also Class 2 limited energy (60 V dc, 30 V ac, 100 VA or less) if
customer-supplied equipment meets Class 2 limits.
(a) All TAs are UL/UL-C listed to comply with applicable ordinary location safety standards for fire and shock hazards. Hazardous location
types comply with ATEX directive for II 3 G use. They also comply with the requirements of the European Low Voltage Directive. All
listings/certifications require installation and use within the constraints specified in DIN Rail Mounted Subsystem User’s Guide
(Reference 5) and the conditions stated in UL and DEMKO reports.
