Honeywell CC-PAIX02 | Analog Input Module, In Stock, Fast Shipping

Description

Product Introduction

The Honeywell CC-PAIX02 is an 8-channel analog input module designed for the C300 controller within the Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS) distributed control system. This module accepts 4 to 20 mA signals from field transmitters, providing high-accuracy measurement for pressure, temperature, flow, and level applications. The CC-PAIX02 mounts on a Series C I/O rack and communicates with the C300 controller via the I/O link, supporting both simplex and redundant configurations.

The Experion PKS platform is Honeywell’s flagship DCS for process industries including refining, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and power generation. The CC-PAIX02 represents the current-generation analog input module for the C300 system, offering significant advantages over legacy modules including onboard HART pass-through, enhanced diagnostics, and support for electronic marshalling. For plants standardizing on the C300 platform, this module provides the channel density and diagnostic capabilities required for modern process control strategies.

Key Selling Points & Differentiators

• HART Pass-Through on Every Channel: Supports HART communication for smart transmitters without requiring separate HART multiplexers. HART signals are passed through the module to the controller and can be accessed via the Experion system for device configuration and asset management.
• Enhanced Diagnostics: Individual channel diagnostics include open-circuit detection, short-circuit monitoring, and signal out-of-range alarms. Diagnostic status is available at the controller level and can trigger alarms in the Experion console.
• 16-Bit Resolution: Provides 0.0015% of span resolution, enabling precise measurement for critical loops such as reactor temperature control and custody transfer applications.
• C300 Redundancy Support: When used with a redundant C300 controller and redundant I/O links, the CC-PAIX02 supports high-availability configurations with automatic failover.
• OEM Authenticity: Each unit undergoes visual inspection for Honeywell branding, serial number traceability, and factory packaging verification. We do not sell counterfeit or unauthorized product.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is the CC-PAIX02 compatible with the C200 controller?
No. The CC-PAIX02 is designed specifically for the C300 controller and Series C I/O. It is not compatible with the older C200 controller or Series A I/O. If you have a C200 system, you need the legacy analog input module such as the TC-PAIX02 or similar. Verify your controller type before ordering.

Q: What termination assembly is required for the CC-PAIX02?
The module mounts on a Series C I/O rack and requires a termination assembly for field wiring. Common options include:

• CC-TDIL01: Standard termination assembly for 8-channel analog input
• CC-TDIL11: Termination assembly with enhanced surge protection

Both termination assemblies support HART pass-through. Choose based on your environmental conditions and surge protection requirements.

Q: Does the CC-PAIX02 provide loop power to field devices?
No. This module does not source loop power. Field devices require an external 24 V DC power supply connected at the termination assembly. The module measures the current loop but does not provide the voltage. This is standard practice for Honeywell I/O and allows flexibility in power distribution.

Q: What is the difference between the CC-PAIX02 and the CC-PAIX01?
The CC-PAIX01 is an 8-channel analog input module without HART pass-through. The CC-PAIX02 adds HART capability, allowing communication with smart transmitters. If you do not require HART and are looking for a lower-cost alternative, the CC-PAIX01 is available. However, for new installations or any application using smart transmitters, the CC-PAIX02 is the recommended choice.

Q: Can I hot-swap the CC-PAIX02 in a running system?
Yes. The Series C I/O system supports hot-swap of I/O modules. You can remove and replace a CC-PAIX02 while the controller and I/O rack remain powered. During the swap, the analog input values for that module will be unavailable, and the controller will register an I/O fault. Process loops using those inputs should be in manual or bypass during the swap to avoid upsets.

Q: What is the maximum cable length for field wiring?
For 4 to 20 mA signals, the maximum recommended cable length is 600 meters (2,000 feet) when using shielded twisted-pair cable and proper grounding. For HART communication, cable length is limited to 3,000 meters (10,000 feet) total loop length, but shorter distances are recommended for reliable communication. We recommend following Honeywell’s installation guidelines in document EPKS-IO-0001 for specific applications.

Q: What testing do you perform before shipping?
For new factory-sealed units, we do not break the seal to maintain OEM warranty eligibility. Our QC process includes visual inspection of packaging integrity, verification of the CC-PAIX02 part number against Honeywell specifications, and anti-counterfeit checks including serial number validation. If you require a pre-installation power-on test and HART communication verification, we offer that as a service—please specify at time of order. For units where seals have been broken for testing, we provide a full test report with channel accuracy measurements and HART verification.
