Description
KONGSBERG NORCONTROL AS
NAME: RDI-32
REMOTE DIGITAL INPUT MODULE
PART#: 8100154
HA451674A
AUE-758
REVISION: E1
The Kongsberg Norcontrol RDI-32 is a Remote Digital Input Module designed for use within shipboard automation and control systems. As a core signal acquisition component, it captures and transmits digital input data from field devices to the central control system, enabling accurate real-time monitoring and process feedback. Forming part of the Kongsberg Norcontrol Marine Control System architecture, this module plays an essential role in maintaining reliable onboard automation, supporting the safe and efficient operation of vessel systems across a range of commercial and industrial marine applications.
Key Features
✓ Functions as a remote digital input module, capturing discrete on/off signal states from field-connected sensors and switches for transmission to the control system.
✓ Revision E1 designation indicates a specific hardware iteration; exact electrical ratings, input channel count, and voltage compatibility are subject to confirmation against vessel documentation and system configuration.
✓ Designed for integration within the Kongsberg Norcontrol control system platform, ensuring compatibility with associated panels, controllers, and network infrastructure typical of this automation architecture.
✓ Intended for installation in designated control equipment spaces or local equipment rooms onboard; mounting configuration and environmental suitability depend on the specific vessel installation.
✓ As a replaceable module within a distributed I/O architecture, sourcing a direct manufacturer-matched part number (8100154) supports straightforward like-for-like replacement and minimises system downtime during maintenance.
Marine Applications
✓ Integrated into Kongsberg Norcontrol automation systems aboard merchant vessels including bulk carriers, tankers, and container ships requiring distributed digital signal input across multiple onboard systems.
✓ Used in machinery control and monitoring systems to relay digital status signals from pumps, valves, motors, and other machinery to the central processing unit.
✓ Applied within alarm monitoring and management systems where discrete input states from field devices must be accurately reported to the bridge or engine control room.
✓ Suitable for offshore support vessels and platform supply vessels operating Kongsberg Norcontrol integrated automation platforms requiring dependable remote I/O functionality.
✓ Relevant to any vessel undergoing control system maintenance, upgrade, or module replacement where the original Kongsberg Norcontrol RDI-32 hardware must be reinstated.
Why Marine Engineers Choose
Marine engineers specify the Kongsberg Norcontrol RDI-32 because it is a manufacturer-specific module that integrates directly into the existing Norcontrol automation architecture, eliminating compatibility risk and ensuring signal integrity across the vessel’s control network.
