Kongsberg 8100292 Product Introduction
1. Product Overview
The Kongsberg 8100292 is a high-reliability industrial I/O (Input/Output) module designed for Kongsberg’s automation systems, primarily serving marine, offshore oil & gas, and maritime transportation industries. It focuses on tasks like signal acquisition from shipboard sensors (e.g., pressure, temperature, 液位) and control signal output to actuators (e.g., valves, pumps)—critical for ensuring stable operation of marine propulsion systems, offshore platform process control, and vessel navigation 辅助 systems.
Integrating ruggedized hardware and maritime-specific protection, it withstands harsh marine environments (e.g., salt spray, vibration). Compatibility with Kongsberg’s K-Pos, K-Chief, and other automation platforms ensures seamless system integration, making it a core component for marine and offshore industrial control.

3. Product Specifications & Features
3.1 Core Specifications
The Kongsberg 8100292 is optimized for marine/offshore scenarios, with 8 analog inputs (4–20 mA) for connecting common industrial sensors and 8 digital inputs/4 outputs for status monitoring and actuator control—fitting typical shipboard control loops (e.g., “tank level sensor → I/O module → pump actuator”). Its 16-bit analog resolution ensures precise signal acquisition, while 2 A digital outputs support direct control of small pumps/valves.
Profibus DP communication enables fast data exchange with Kongsberg’s central automation controllers (e.g., K-Chief 700), ensuring real-time control response. The module’s salt spray resistance (1000 hours) and IP65 protection directly address marine environmental challenges, preventing corrosion and water damage.
3.2 Key Features
- Maritime-Specific Design: Salt spray resistance and IEC 60945 compliance meet strict marine electronics standards, ensuring durability in offshore/shipboard environments.
- Hybrid I/O Functionality: Combines analog signal acquisition and digital control in one module, reducing system complexity and cabinet space.
- Reliable Communication: Profibus DP integration with Kongsberg automation platforms ensures stable data transmission, critical for marine safety systems.
- Robust Protection: Overvoltage/overcurrent safeguards prevent damage from electrical fluctuations common in marine power systems.
- Easy Installation: Marine-grade DIN rail mounting and compact size simplify integration into vessel control cabinets.
