4256A86G01 QAXT High Precision Temperature Sensing Daughter Card, Emerson Westinghouse Common Q DCS Module

The 4256A86G01 is an original Emerson-Westinghouse Q-Line QAXT dedicated temperature acquisition daughter card, matching the Common Q safety-grade distributed control system (DCS) platform. This board is specially designed for industrial thermocouple and RTD temperature signal collection, built with high-precision signal conditioning circuits, anti-noise filtering modules and hot-swappable carrier bus interfaces. It supports multi-channel temperature sensor signal conversion, accurate temperature data transmission to main processor modules, and complies with nuclear safety Class 1E industrial standards. Adopting industrial high-Tg FR-4 substrate and full gold-plated signal contacts, it features strong EMI resistance, wide temperature working range and long-term stable operation under severe power, chemical and nuclear industrial environments. It realizes real-time monitoring, over-temperature alarm and data uploading for equipment core temperature points, and supports one-by-one hot plug replacement under energized system (single module operation only) to minimize production downtime.
