The Emerson SE4101 is a Redundant Ethernet I/O Card (EIOC) Assembly for the DeltaV distributed control system. The assembly includes 2 EIOC cards, a Dual Universal Carrier, 2 Ethernet Isolation Ports for twisted copper, and 2 power plugs. It connects third-party Ethernet devices directly to the DeltaV control network, eliminating intermediate gateways and reducing system complexity.

Highlights
True redundancy: Primary and secondary EIOCs operate in tandem; the secondary assumes control automatically upon primary failure for continuous process monitoring.
Multi-protocol gateway: Simultaneous support for Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, IEC 61850 MMS, and OPC UA within one application configuration.
Direct device integration: Connects PLCs, drives, motor control centers, analyzers, and intelligent field devices directly to DeltaV.
Electrical isolation: Ethernet Isolation Ports protect the controller backplane from faults in the Ethernet physical layer.
Field-upgradeable firmware: Maintains compatibility with evolving protocol standards via the DeltaV engineering workstation.
Control execution flexibility: Control modules can be assigned and executed directly in the EIOC.
FAQ
Q: What is included in the SE4101 assembly? A: The assembly ships with 2 EIOC cards, a Dual Universal Carrier, 2 Ethernet Isolation Ports for twisted copper, and 2 power plugs.
Q: How many devices can one EIOC support? A: Up to 256 Ethernet devices, acquiring up to 32,000 signals.
Q: Can the EIOC run in simplex mode? A: Yes. A single EIOC occupies one slot on the Dual Universal Carrier; two cards provide full redundancy.
Q: Which protocol licenses are required? A: Protocol interface licenses are ordered separately (Modbus TCP VE4103, EtherNet/IP VE4105, OPC UA VE4106, IEC 61850 MMS VE4107).
Installation Guide
Verify the DeltaV system software version supports the physical EIOC hardware.
Seat the EIOC cards onto the Dual Universal Carrier, aligning the backplane connectors before applying even pressure.
Install the Ethernet Isolation Ports for twisted copper and connect shielded RJ45 cabling, keeping at least 150 mm separation from high-voltage AC conduits.
Connect the 24 VDC power inputs via the supplied power plugs; bond the carrier chassis to the cabinet instrument earth bus.
Download the configuration from the DeltaV engineering workstation and verify link status on the diagnostic LEDs.
Confirm device IP addressing and protocol mapping, then enable scan services and validate signal quality.
Selection Tips
Select the redundant SE4101 assembly for mission-critical loops; choose the simplex SE4100 assembly where a single EIOC is sufficient.
Confirm the number of physical devices and required protocol licenses before ordering.
For hazardous-area installation, follow the DeltaV S-Series Class 1 Division 2 and Zone 2 installation guidelines.
Verify spare part compatibility: EIOC card KL2001X1-BD1, Ethernet Isolation Port KL1604X1-BA1, Dual Horizontal Carrier KL4104X1-BA1.
