FAQ
FAQ
Q1. What is the main function of 1797-BIC?
It is used to isolate and interface FLEX I/O systems with FLEX Ex (intrinsically safe) modules, ensuring safe operation in hazardous environments.
Q2. Why is this module needed?
It allows mixing standard I/O and intrinsically safe I/O in one system while maintaining electrical separation.
Q3. How many FLEX Ex modules can it support?
It can support up to 8 FLEX Ex I/O modules on the isolated side.
Q4. Where is it installed?
It is typically installed in the safe area panel, bridging to hazardous-area FLEX Ex modules.
Q5. What type of isolation does it provide?
It provides galvanic (intrinsic safety) isolation between backplane segments.
Q6. Does it process I/O signals?
No. It only provides bus isolation and communication interface, not signal processing.
Q7. What is its power requirement?
It operates on 18–32 VDC external power.
Q8. What is its main benefit in a system?
It enables safe integration of hazardous and non-hazardous I/O systems in one FLEX architecture.
