It provides 16 channels of 4–20 mA output signals for precise control of final control elements such as modulating valves, dampers, and motor speed drives. What distinguishes this module is its integrated Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART) capability, enabling simultaneous analog control and digital communication with smart field devices over the same wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned with the Series 8 vertical architecture, the 8C-PAOHA maximizes cabinet density while improving thermal performance through natural convection. It features high-resolution 16-bit digital-to-analog conversion for accurate signal reproduction in critical control loops. The module also includes comprehensive onboard diagnostics, such as open-circuit detection, high-impedance load monitoring, and output current read-back verification, enhancing system reliability and maintainability in demanding industrial environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"firstRow\"\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eParameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel Designation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8C-PAOHA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalog Output with HART Support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardware Line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExperion PKS Series 8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Signal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4–20 mA Current Loop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDigital Communication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntegrated HART Protocol Pass-through\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel Density\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 Channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16-bit High Precision\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIsolation Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGalvanic Isolation per Channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26.7 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.1 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17.8 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNet Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication Scenarios\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 8C-PAOHA is widely used in advanced process industries requiring both precise control and asset monitoring, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower generation plants\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOil \u0026amp; gas refineries\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChemical and petrochemical facilities\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypical applications include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControlling smart valve positioners with HART diagnostics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMonitoring valve travel, calibration, and device health remotely\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProviding continuous analog control while enabling digital device communication\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is particularly valuable in Distributed Control Systems (DCS) where both control precision and asset management are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does the 8C-PAOHA require a separate HART multiplexer?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eNo. The module includes integrated HART modems on each channel, allowing direct communication between smart field devices and the C300 controller through the Honeywell Experion PKS Series 8 without requiring an external HART multiplexer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Honeywell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48868366319868,"sku":"8C-PAOHA","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0787\/9983\/1292\/files\/8C-PAOHA1_51454469-2751.jpg?v=1772780844","url":"https:\/\/www.electronicplc.com\/products\/honeywell-analog-output-hart-module-8c-paoha","provider":"Electronic PLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
