FAQ
FAQ – HIMA F3 DIO 20/8 02
Q1: What type of safety certification does the F3 DIO 20/8 02 have?
A1: The module is certified up to SIL 3 (IEC 61508/61511), SIL 4 (EN 50126/50128/50129), and PL e Cat. 4 (EN ISO 13849-1).
Q2: Can the F3 DIO 20/8 02 be used in Ex-zone environments?
A2: Yes, it is suitable for installation in Zone 2 as per ATEX requirements when installed in appropriate enclosures.
Q3: Is the module compatible with both SILworX and ELOP II Factory?
A3: Yes, compatibility depends on firmware version. SILworX is used for CPU OS V7+, while ELOP II Factory is used for OS up to V6.x.
Q4: Can the outputs handle inductive loads?
A4: Yes, but HIMA recommends connecting a protective diode to the actuator to suppress voltage spikes.
Q5: What happens during a fault on an input or output?
A5: The module sets the affected channel to a safe (de-energized) state, signals the fault via FAULT LED, and provides error codes.
Q6: How are the digital outputs protected from overloads?
A6: Overloaded outputs are automatically shut off and then cyclically checked and reactivated once the fault clears.
Q7: Does the device support remote diagnostics?
A7: Yes, diagnostics can be viewed through LEDs and detailed error codes via SILworX or ELOP II Factory.
Q8: What is the power supply requirement for this module?
A8: The module operates on 24 VDC ±20% from a PELV/SELV-compliant power source.
