Product Details
The Foxboro P0931RU, also cataloged as the P0931RU Termination Cable, operates as a dedicated hardware component for field signal interconnectivity and physical relay interface extending within Foxboro I/A Series and InFusion platforms. Configured as a Type 4 termination cable assembly, it routes multi-channel discrete and relay telemetry between main termination assemblies and field control modules using Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacketed cabling terminated with a 37-pin male D-subminiature connector.

DCS Process Control and Channel Isolation
The Foxboro P0931RU assembly maintains channel-to-channel isolation across individual twisted pairs to protect DCS backplane electronics from field-induced electrical noise and ground loops. Compatible with 4-20 mA HART loop protocol wiring and discrete switching signals up to 10 A at 120 VAC, the assembly incorporates high-density shielding to minimize cross-talk along extended cable lengths up to 30 m. The physical separation of signal paths prevents transient surge propagation from disrupting adjacent input and output channels during active switching execution.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the benefit of the LSZH cable jacket on the P0931RU assembly in field enclosures?
A: The Low Smoke Zero Halogen material resists degradation over a wide temperature range (-40 to +105 deg C) while limiting corrosive gas emissions during high-temperature or combustion events.
Q: How is strain relief and shield continuity managed at the 37-pin D-subminiature connector interface?
A: The 37-pin male D-subminiature connector uses a rigid metallic backshell that clamps the cable shield drain wire directly to the chassis ground frame.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Inspect the 37-pin male D-subminiature connector pins for alignment and clean surfaces before mating with the baseplate receptacle.
- Secure the D-subminiature connector locking screws to maintain vibration-resistant contact and ground continuity.
- Crimp accepted wire sizes (22 AWG to 12 AWG / 0.5 to 4 mm2) using standard #6 ring lugs before securing to terminal assembly posts.
- Route the cable through dedicated low-voltage wiring troughs, keeping a minimum bend radius of six times the cable diameter.
