Product Overview
The Honeywell TK-RPCXX1 is a Remote Process Control Module designed for use within the Honeywell TDC3000 and Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS) environments. Built to facilitate high-speed, reliable data communication and process control, the TK-RPCXX1 acts as a crucial intermediary that bridges distributed control and remote field input/output modules. Its primary role is to enhance the integration and extendibility of control systems across large-scale industrial operations, including oil & gas, chemical processing, power generation, and manufacturing.
With its rugged build and industrial-grade electronics, the TK-RPCXX1 ensures seamless control performance even under harsh environmental conditions. Its plug-in architecture and firmware compatibility with Honeywell’s Universal Control Network (UCN) make it a modular and serviceable component in critical process automation systems.
