MC-TAIH02 51304453-150 | Honeywell Experion PKS Analog Input High-Level FTA

Product Overview

The Honeywell MC-TAIH02 (51304453-150) serves as a critical High-Level Analog Input (HLAI) Field Termination Assembly (FTA) within the Honeywell Experion PKS and TDC 3000 ecosystems. This 100% Brand New and original module interfaces field-side analog transmitters with the system’s I/O processors. It facilitates the precise acquisition of 4-20mA and voltage signals, acting as the primary gateway for process variables like pressure, flow, and temperature into the control environment.

Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

• Optimized Signal Integrity: The MC-TAIH02 incorporates onboard filtering to reject electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). This ensures that clean data reaches the I/O processor even in electrically noisy environments near heavy motor switchgear.

• Simplified Field Wiring: The module utilizes high-density terminal blocks that streamline the connection of multi-pair field cables. This design reduces the physical footprint within the marshalling cabinet, solving the challenge of limited space in retrofitted control rooms.

• USA-Manufactured Durability: Built in the United States, this FTA follows stringent quality control standards. The ruggedized PCB substrate resists the corrosive atmospheres often found in chemical and offshore oil platforms, ensuring a long operational life.

• Hot-Swap Capability: This hardware supports seamless replacement under power when utilized with compatible Honeywell I/O bases. This feature prevents process interruption and minimizes downtime during emergency maintenance.

• Efficient Heat Dissipation: The 15.3cm x 12.1cm form factor provides sufficient surface area for passive cooling. This prevents thermal drift in the precision resistors, maintaining measurement accuracy across the entire ambient temperature range of the control cabinet.

FAQs

• What is the difference between the MC-TAIH02 and the older MU-TAIH02?

  The MC-TAIH02 (51304453-150) represents the "Series C" or modern iteration, offering improved component longevity and thermal stability compared to legacy versions, while maintaining functional compatibility in many TDC 3000 and Experion migrations.

• Does this module support 2-wire transmitter power?

  The FTA architecture facilitates the distribution of 24 VDC power to field-side 2-wire transmitters when integrated with the appropriate Honeywell power supply and I/O processor configuration.

• Is this unit shipped in factory-original packaging?

  Yes. We supply only 100% Brand New units in original Honeywell factory packaging. Each unit retains its factory seal and original serial number for full traceability.

• Are special tools required for installation?

  No. Standard precision screwdrivers accommodate the terminal connections. However, we recommend following the torque specifications in the Honeywell Experion PKS installation guide to ensure gas-tight connections on all analog loops.
