Configured for driving 16 independent 4-20 mA current loops, the assembly routes analog control commands from redundant I\/O processors to field actuators, control valves, and I\/P transducers. The hardware utilizes multi-layer PCB construction with protective coating and compression-style screw terminals to maintain analog signal fidelity across extended field cable runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMC-TAOX12 (51304441-175)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHoneywell\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 60 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 VDC Nominal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e51304441-175\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalog Output Field Termination Assembly (FTA)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel Density\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 Independent Channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSignal Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4-20 mA DC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHoneywell HPM \/ TDC 3000 \/ Experion PKS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRedundancy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual I\/O Processor Connection Support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTermination\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompression-Style Screw Terminals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e4-20 mA HART Loop Protocol \u0026amp; Redundant Processor Interfacing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Honeywell MC-TAOX12 51304441-175 incorporates dual-path signal routing architecture to interface directly with primary and secondary I\/O processors.
