Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Question: Is the AI930B compatible with 4-wire transmitters?
• Answer: This specific AI930B model is designed for 2-wire loop-powered transmitters; 4-wire devices may require an external power source.
• Question: What happens to the process if the AI930B module is removed?
• Answer: The S900 system’s Hot Swap feature allows you to pull the module without disrupting power or communication to other modules on the rack.
• Question: How does G3 coating improve the 3KDE175512L9300’s reliability?
• Answer: It protects the internal circuitry of the AI930B from moisture, dust, and atmospheric pollutants that cause electrical shorts.
• Question: Does the module support Sequence of Events (SOE)?
• Answer: No, the AI930B is a standard analog input module; SOE is typically reserved for specialized digital input modules.
• Selection Guide: Why choose Type B (AI930B) over other variants?
• Answer: Choose the AI930B when your I/O rack is located in Zone 2 but needs to interface with sensors located in Zone 0 or 1.
