HIMA F3330 984333002 8-Channel Output Module

Product Introduction

The HIMA F3330 (Part Number: 984333002) is a high-integrity 8-channel relay output module engineered for safety-critical industrial automation systems. Designed as part of the HIMA Planar F-series, this module is optimized for controlling actuators and relays in applications that demand functional safety, redundancy, and reliability up to SIL 3 levels as per IEC 61508.

Each of the 8 outputs is galvanically isolated, and the module ensures safe operation by executing internal diagnostics and incorporating fault detection mechanisms. It plays a vital role in shutdown sequences, enabling or disabling field devices such as contactors, indicators, or solenoid valves under strict safety rules. Its robust architecture, compact form factor, and compliance with international safety standards make it ideal for applications in the oil & gas, chemical, and power sectors.

Technical Specifications

Product Applications

The HIMA F3330 is built for versatile deployment across critical industries. It is particularly effective in:

• Emergency Shutdown (ESD) Systems: Safely energizes or de-energizes actuators during system shutdown or faults.

• Chemical Plants: Controls output elements in hazardous and highly corrosive environments.

• Oil & Gas Facilities: Interfaces with control valves and safety devices across upstream and downstream operations.

• Power Generation: Coordinates logic signals for turbine safety shutdowns, fire & gas alarms, and load shedding.

• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Ensures precise and validated output control in cleanroom or sterile conditions.

• Water Treatment & Utilities: Engages mechanical relays or control valves in SCADA-based safety systems.

Product Advantages

• High Channel Density: 8 relay outputs in a compact module improve cabinet space efficiency.

• Safety Compliance: Certified up to SIL 3, suitable for most high-risk industry applications.

• Independent Isolation: Each channel is isolated from the system and other channels, reducing cross-faults.

• Diagnostic Functions: Integrated LED indicators offer real-time output channel status.

• Reliable Switching: Solid mechanical relays ensure safe and deterministic switching behavior under load.

• Modular Integration: Easily integrates into HIMA’s Planar F architecture with other I/O modules.

• Reduced Maintenance: Long relay life and fault protection minimize failure risks and downtime.

• Robust Construction: Flame-resistant casing and IP20 protection guarantee longevity even in harsh environments.
