PAC8000 Remote I/O
The Control Solution for Process Industries
PAC8000 Remote I/O is a completely modular I/O
solution for both general purpose and hazardous
area applications. Based upon a carrier system,
PAC8000 supports a wide range of modules and
I/O functions, including intrinsic safety signals.
An open architecture allows communication
with a variety of different fieldbuses by selecting
the appropriate type of Bus Interface Module
(BIM).
Designed to resist extreme temperatures,
humidity, corrosive materials, shocks, and
vibration, PAC8000 delivers full specification
performance in even the harshest environments.
In ATEX environments PAC8000 excels – all
components can be mounted and live worked in
Zone 2 / Division 2 and ATEX Zone 1 hazardous
areas. The I/O includes types that can be
connected directly to intrinsically safe (Exi)
or increased safety (Exe) field wiring.
PAC8000 Remote I/O integrates seamlessly with
PACSystems solutions and is connected via
PROFINET or Modbus TCP to RX3i and RSTi-EP
controllers.
Harsh & Hazardous Area Operation
PAC8000 can go where other products cannot. They can be
eld mounted and subjected to the following:
n -40°C to +70°C operating range
n ISA Level G3 corrosion
n 30g shocks and 5g vibration
n Operation in Class I, Division 2 and Zone 2 hazardous areas
with I/O module eld wiring including intrinsically safe (Exi)
and increased safety (Exe) options
n Supports UL HAZLOC C1D1 and ATEX Zone 1 hazardous areas
with I/O module eld wiring including intrinsically safe (Exi)
and increased safety (Exe) options
High Availability
PAC8000 supports PROFINET System Redundancy (PNSR),
enabling synchronized independent controllers to service the
I/O and transition from active to back-up controller without
interruption. With controllers separated up to 10 kilometers
from each other, processes will be resilient from physical
disruption. Consider unplanned downtime a thing of the past.
Variety of IO Modules
Beyond just analog and digital I/O, a broad range of PAC8000
I/O modules are available, including options for low-level
instrumentation, AC mains, and intrinsically safe signals.
4, 8, 16, and 32 eld channels modules are available, and
all modules provide comprehensive diagnostic information.
Easy Troubleshooting and
Machine Setup
Using integrated PAC Machine Edition (PME) software, you can
easily congure PAC8000 I/O. If you are using PROFINET then it
is even easier using the GSDML le. PME is the same software
as all PACSystems CPUs so you only need a single tool from
small to large applications. This approach utilizes the same
hardware conguration, network conguration, and
programming editors. HMI development is also streamlined
with a single tag database for QuickPanel+ HMIs.

HART Support
PAC8000 Modbus EBIM can provide HART data directly to
Emerson’s Asset Management System (AMS), allowing remote
conguration and access to eld instrument diagnostic
information. PAC8000 can also acquire HART data for use in
the process controlapplication. HART devices may be selected
for regular status monitoring and alerts can be issued if the
status changes. This allows for reduced commissioning time,
reduced downtime, and reduced maintenance costs.
