Description
HIMA F8627X (984862765) Safe‑Ethernet Communication Module for H41q / H51q Safety PLC System
Product Details
The F8627X, part number 984862765, is a certified SIL‑3 Ethernet communication module for HIMA H41q‑H51q safety‑related control systems. It is designed to cooperate with F8650X / F8652X series safety CPUs, providing dual 10/100‑Base‑T Ethernet ports plus one RS232 FB interface. It supports SafeEthernet, ELOP‑II programming protocol, Modbus‑TCP and standard TCP/IP communication. This card enables online programming, parameter download, real‑time data exchange between safety controller, ELOP‑II engineering tool, HMI, SCADA and third‑party automation devices. Front‑panel LED indicators display TX/COL, RUN and ERR status for quick diagnosis. It adopts standard Eurocard rack‑mount structure, inserts into HIMA backplane bus, supports hot‑swap operation without safety‑logic interruption. With TÜV certification conforming to IEC 61508 SIL‑3, it is widely used as spare‑part and retrofit component for legacy petrochemical, oil‑gas and power‑plant SIS racks.
