DIGITAL INPUT MODULE
KONGSBERG
Refurbished
The KONGSBERG Maritime RMP201-8 Digital Input Module is a specialized remote multi-purpose input/output module designed for advanced marine automation and vessel control systems. It forms part of the Kongsberg RIO200 family and is widely used within K-Chief integrated automation systems installed onboard commercial and offshore vessels. The module provides reliable acquisition and processing of digital and analog field signals from sensors, switches, alarms, and control devices throughout the vessel.
Modern vessels rely on distributed automation architecture where thousands of signals from engine rooms, machinery spaces, cargo systems, ballast systems, and safety systems must be monitored continuously. The RMP201-8 module serves as a critical communication and signal interface between field devices and the central automation controllers. Its robust design, redundancy capabilities, and marine approvals make it suitable for harsh shipboard environments.
For ship operators, the module helps ensure reliable monitoring, improved operational efficiency, enhanced safety, and reduced downtime. Failure of an I/O module can affect alarm systems, machinery monitoring, and control functions, making spare parts availability and technical support extremely important.
The KONGSBERG RMP201-8 is a remote multifunctional I/O module developed for Kongsberg Maritime automation platforms. It provides remote data acquisition and control functionality and communicates with host controllers through a redundant RBUS communication architecture. The module supports multiple signal types and allows flexible channel configuration depending on vessel requirements.
Within a K-Chief automation system, the RMP201-8 is typically installed in remote I/O cabinets located throughout the vessel. It receives signals from field instruments and transmits processed data to the main automation controllers for monitoring, alarm handling, logging, and control functions.
The module is designed for marine reliability and incorporates self-diagnostics, hot-swap capability, redundant communication interfaces, and continuous status monitoring. These features help minimize operational interruptions and simplify maintenance activities.
SM MARINE SERVICE™ supplies KONGSBERG RMP201-8 modules in New, Used, and Reconditioned condition depending on customer requirements and budget.
The RMP201-8 provides multiple configurable channels that can be adapted to different signal requirements. This flexibility allows engineers to integrate digital inputs, digital outputs, analog inputs, analog outputs, and potentiometer signals within a single module platform.
The module utilizes dual RBUS interfaces that support redundant communication paths between remote I/O stations and host controllers. This redundancy increases reliability and ensures continuous system operation even if a communication path becomes unavailable.
Comprehensive self-diagnostic functions monitor internal voltages, memory functions, processor operation, and communication status. Diagnostic information assists engineers in rapid fault identification and troubleshooting.
The module supports hot replacement, enabling maintenance personnel to replace defective units without shutting down the complete automation system. This feature significantly reduces downtime onboard vessels.
The RMP201-8 is designed for marine applications and complies with recognized marine standards for vibration, environmental conditions, and electromagnetic compatibility.
