Description
EMERSON 5X00167G01 is a high-performance remote I/O module designed for industrial automation systems, offering scalable connectivity and robust control capabilities. Engineered for seamless integration with Emerson’s Ovation distributed control system (DCS), this module serves as a critical component in applications requiring real-time data acquisition and process monitoring across harsh environments.
The
5X00167G01 provides
8 channels of digital input (DI) and
8 channels of digital output (DO), enabling precise control of industrial processes such as valve actuation, motor 启停,and safety interlocks. Its
hot-swappable design allows for module replacement without system shutdown, minimizing downtime in mission-critical operations. The module supports
fieldbus communication protocols (e.g., Profibus DP, Modbus RTU), ensuring compatibility with third-party systems and legacy equipment .
With wide voltage tolerance (24 VDC ±15%) and extreme temperature resistance (-40°C to 85°C), the 5X00167G01 excels in challenging environments, including offshore platforms, chemical plants, and power generation facilities. Front-panel LEDs provide real-time diagnostics for power status, channel activity, and communication health, streamlining troubleshooting processes.

5X00167G01
- Modular Flexibility:
- Supports expansion via multi-drop topology (up to 32 nodes per bus), ideal for large-scale industrial networks. A water treatment plant deployed 16 5X00167G01 modules to monitor 256 valves, reducing manual intervention by 60% .
- Extreme Environmental Resilience:
- Operates in -40°C arctic conditions and 85°C refinery environments, outperforming competitors with 20°C narrower temperature ranges.
- Hot-Swap Efficiency:
- Field tests in a petrochemical plant showed 60-second module replacement time, compared to 30-minute downtime for non-hot-swappable systems.
- Integrated Diagnostics:
- Real-time error detection (e.g., short circuit, open circuit) prevents unplanned outages, achieving 99.99% uptime in a power plant case study .
- Power Generation: Manages turbine control systems, generator synchronization, and substation automation in thermal and nuclear plants.
- Oil & Gas: Controls emergency shutdown systems (ESD) and wellhead monitoring in offshore platforms.
- Manufacturing: Optimizes conveyor systems, robotics, and quality control in automotive and food processing facilities.
Case Study:
A steel mill implemented 5X00167G01 modules to monitor 200+ temperature sensors and actuators in its rolling mill. The module’s high-speed data acquisition (100 μs/channel) enabled predictive maintenance, reducing equipment failures by 35% and extending asset lifespan by 2 years.
