6. Selection Suggestions & Precautions

6.1 Selection Suggestions

  1. Legacy DCS Requirements: Choose HONEYWELL 51304362-350 for Honeywell TDC 3000/PM systems requiring LCN communication between controllers and workstations; generic CIM modules may lack full compatibility and diagnostic features.
  2. Redundancy Needs: Opt for HONEYWELL 51304362-350 if operating dual LCN rings for fault tolerance; non-redundant CIMs increase downtime risk in critical applications.
  3. Maintenance & Support: Select HONEYWELL 51304362-350 for access to Honeywell’s legacy DCS support and replacement parts; third-party modules may have limited availability.

6.2 Precautions

  1. Installation Guidelines:
    • Install HONEYWELL 51304362-350 in TDC 3000 PM racks only; use certified LCN coaxial cables (maximum distance 1.2km per segment) and terminate LCN rings with 75Ω resistors at both ends.
    • Ensure proper grounding (≤4Ω) for the module and LCN cables to minimize electrical interference and maintain communication reliability.
  2. Configuration Notes:
    • Configure LCN node addresses via the TDC 3000 Universal Station to avoid conflicts (each CIM requires a unique LCN address).
    • Enable alarm logging and diagnostic alerts to monitor HONEYWELL 51304362-350 health and detect communication faults early.
  3. Troubleshooting:
    • For LCN communication failures: Check cable termination, verify node addresses, and use the maintenance RS-232 port to run diagnostic tests via the LCN Configuration Utility.
    • For power faults: Inspect the PM rack power supply and module connections; replace the module if the power LED remains off after verifying input power.
  4. Maintenance:
    • Inspect LCN cable connectors and module ports annually for corrosion or damage; clean with isopropyl alcohol to remove dust and debris.
    • Stock spare HONEYWELL 51304362-350 modules—legacy DCS components have limited production runs, and lead times may exceed 12 weeks.
    • Coordinate with Honeywell’s legacy DCS support team for firmware updates and compatibility checks before system modifications.
