Industrial parts suppliers: While they might not have detailed information, some suppliers might offer clues based on categories or descriptions associated with the part number.
Unfortunately, due to the limited information available online, it’s difficult to provide a definitive answer about the specific function of FOXBORO P0926CC
Function: It’s a modular input module that allows for easy addition or removal from the PLC chassis. Each of its four inputs can be configured to accept either analog or digital signals.
Applications:
Analog inputs: Used to measure voltage, current, or other continuous process variables.
Digital inputs: Used to receive on/off signals from sensors or switches.
The FOXBORO P0926AH-B is a quadruple to dual fiber optic splitter/combiner. In simpler terms, it’s a device used in fiber optic networks that takes a signal coming in on four fibers and combines them into two outgoing fibers, or vice versa.
