There is a more practical reason for using a Marshalling Panel which becomes apparent if we imagine a multi-cable coming from the field and being connected directly to the I/O cards of a DCS. Whenever some kind of maintenance/test/check has to be performed just imagine the risk of interfering directly at an I/O card just to open some loop circuit. There would be the risk of touching another entry , loosing some bolt, and many other situations that could jeopardize the whole I/O card for some lack of other space specifically created to allow the proper access for maintenance and testing - the Marshalling Panel. Once the connections between all the I/O cards and a Marshalling Panel are done, tested and identified, no one wil have to deal with the I/O panel again, which means less risk and a proper place to do maintenance and testing, for there will be proper open/close connectors, fuses, isolators and all that the Project specifies.

We Have Two Field bus Pressure Transmitters of Different Sensor Range (I.E One is of Lower range and Another is of Higher Range).Is same Process Line. My Question is Can i provide Saturation Limit to my field Bus Transmitter as We can provide Saturation current limit to HART Instruments. As During Low Pressure Both Working OK ,But During High Pressure, transmitter with Lower sensor range Goes to Fault mode as Beyond its Sensor Limit it can Measure, So may I provide Saturation point Some where to Suppress This Fault during High Pressure.
