High Availability I/O Increases Productivity and Simplifies Maintenance

Discover the new FLEXHA 5000 I/O module designed for process applications and delivered as part of our PlantPAx® solution.

Implement an innovative I/O platform to address what’s important

For many of the process industries, today’s control systems need a high availability I/O platform to minimize downtime.

At the same time, project schedules and delivery complexities must be enabled with the flexibility, integrated design and simplified configuration of a universal I/O platform.

Discover how an innovative I/O platform can address these needs while also addressing lifecycle issues that can be a burden for maintenance personnel and budgets. Implemented properly in distributed field enclosures, lifecycle costs can be minimized with optimized footprints and simplified maintenance to maximize the return on process assets.

Integrate solutions for your Connected Enterprise® production system

The next generation of I/O solutions is designed for various industrial applications. The FLEXHA 5000 I/O module is both reliable and flexible, allowing users to choose the I/O that best meets their operational needs. This platform will allow for integrated safety I/O and base process control I/O to be conveniently mounted in the same rack, reducing complexity and cost.
