Product Description
Product Overview
The HIMA F8627X is an Ethernet Communication Module designed for use in HIMA safety-related control systems, such as the H41q and H51q series. This module enhances communication capabilities by supporting SafeEthernet for secure data exchange between programmable electronic systems (PES) and ELOP II TCP for programming over Ethernet (from OS version 7.x). It is an upgraded version of the F8627, typically deployed in industrial safety applications like oil & gas, chemical processing, and power generation, where reliable and fast communication is critical for achieving safety integrity levels up to SIL 3.
