Metso Valmet |IOP351| Relay Output Module

【Product Overview】

The Metso IOP351 (part of the Valmet DNA system) is a high-speed Input/Output Processing Module designed for real-time data handling in decentralized automation racks. As the OEM has transitioned to newer platforms, the IOP351 is now a discontinued (EOL) part. However, through our specialized Supply Chain Channels, we maintain a significant inventory of factory-sealed and professional surplus units from various production years. We bridge the gap for industrial plants that require immediate replacements for their legacy DCS infrastructure without the need for a full system migration.

【Technical Logic & System Integration】

The IOP351 serves as the intelligent gateway between field I/O modules and the process station:

• High-Speed Bus Management: Coordinates signal flow across the DNA I/O backplane.

• Redundancy Ready: Specifically designed to support 2oo2 or 1oo2 redundant configurations to prevent process trips.

• Protocol Support: Ensures seamless data synchronization within the Metso DNA (DCS) network.

【Professional Selection & Stock Compatibility Guide】

As a comprehensive Metso/Valmet spare parts provider, our warehouse holds multiple series of the IOP family. Choosing the correct module depends on your specific cabinet density and signal type requirements:

 For High-Density Logic Processing:

• IOP351 (This Model): The standard for 16-channel and 32-channel high-speed processing.

• IOP353: An enhanced version often selected for specialized high-speed counting or specific pulse-width modulation tasks.

• For Standard Digital & Analog Integration:

• IOP111 / IOP114: These are compact interface units. Choose IOP111 for basic signal routing, while IOP114 is typically used in specific fieldbus-linked sub-racks.

For Advanced Processing & Communication:

• IOP302 / IOP303: Ideal for sites requiring robust serial communication or integration of older field devices into the modern DNA bus.

• IOP320: A versatile processor often used for localized control loops within the I/O rack.

 For Specific Analog/Digital Density:

• IOP331 / IOP341: If your system requires high-accuracy analog signal conditioning combined with logic processing, the IOP331 or IOP341 are the recommended selection for mill-wide consistency.

• Identify the Revision: Metso/Valmet modules often have hardware revision codes (e.g., version A, B, or C). We suggest providing your existing module's serial number for our team to help you verify the exact match.

• The DNA Transition: Note that many Metso parts are now labeled under Valmet. Whether your rack says Metso or Valmet, the IOP351 maintains the same technical footprint.

• Related I/O Series: We also maintain stock for matching Metso DNA components, including Analog Input (AIM), Digital Input (DIM), and Power Supply Units to complete your maintenance kit.

• Expert Tip: If your IOP351 is showing "Communication Error," it may be a bus issue.

We recommend having your site engineer check the terminal base (socket) integrity before replacing the module.

【Specific Industry Application Scenarios】

We supply the Metso IOP351 to solve critical challenges in specialized sectors:

• Pulp & Paper (Wet-End Control): Maintaining precision in headbox control and wire-section synchronization where signal latency must be near-zero.

• Chemical & Refining (Tank Farm Automation): Reliable data gathering from remote I/O stations across vast distances, ensuring safe pressure and level monitoring in hazardous zones.

• Power Generation (Auxiliary Boiler Control): managing complex sequence-of-events (SOE) for boiler burner management and feed-water logic where the IOP351 ensures high-availability.

• Mining & Minerals (Grinding Circuits): Providing ruggedized I/O processing for ball mills and crushers where high vibration and dust require stable electronic components.

【FAQ for Procurement & Middlemen】

Q: If the IOP351 is discontinued, what is the condition of your stock?

A: We utilize our Supply Chain Channels to secure stock from project surpluses and global reserves. Our inventory includes units from various manufacturing years, all stored in ESD-controlled environments.

Q: Can you guarantee compatibility with my 10-year-old system?

A: While the IOP351 is a standard part, firmware revisions matter. We suggest providing your current module's version code, and we will assist by checking our stock's hardware revision to ensure a match.

Q: How can I trust the quality of an older production year module?

A: We offer Real-Time Video Verification. We can help to show you the physical module, the specific labels/dates, and the condition of the pins via a live video call before shipment.
