Valmet/Metso IOP371 I/O Bus Expansion Module
IOP371 original Metso DNA DCS system dedicated I/O bus expansion module. IOP371 serves as a bus relay expansion unit between the DCS local I/O rack and remote I/O stations, extending the transmission distance of controller backplane bus signals; IOP371 supports twisted pair or fiber optic media, expands the number of remote I/O rack nodes, enables bidirectional real-time data exchange between distributed I/O sites and main control systems, transmits on-site analog and digital signals as well as control instructions. IOP371 is the core hardware for large-scale distributed control systems to achieve remote I/O expansion.

Product features
- Designed specifically for Valmet/Metso DNA DCS, it achieves long-distance extension of I/O bus, supports twisted pair and fiber optic transmission media, and adapts to different on-site wiring requirements.
- Equipped with 2500Vrms electrical isolation, effectively suppressing common mode interference caused by long-distance transmission and protecting the main control rack from on-site surge impact.
- Supports 1:1 redundant configuration of the bus, ensuring that a single module failure does not interrupt the communication of the entire DCS system, thereby improving the reliability of the system’s continuous operation.
- Supports hot swapping, and modules can be replaced without shutting down the system, making it convenient for on-site maintenance.
- The panel LED status indicator light intuitively displays bus operation, link faults, and power supply status, making it easy to quickly diagnose communication faults.
- Modular rack installation, sharing the same rack with IOP series I/O cards, simple integration, no need for additional control cabinets.
- Built in bus signal shaping and driving circuits ensure signal integrity during long-distance transmission and guarantee real-time process data.
- It can expand up to 16 remote I/O racks, suitable for distributed measurement point collection in large-scale factory areas.
