The 8C-PAOHA1 (P/N: 51454469-275) is a specialized analog output module for the Honeywell Experion PKS Series 8 platform. It provides 16 channels of 4–20 mA current output, each supporting HART protocol pass-through, enabling bidirectional communication with smart field devices.
This module allows the C300 controller to transmit both primary analog signals and secondary diagnostic/asset data, supporting proactive maintenance and improved process reliability. Its slimline, high-density design maximizes I/O count per linear inch of DIN rail, making it ideal for cabinet-optimized installations in high-performance industrial environments.

The 8C-PAOHA1 is ideal for mission-critical control of field actuators and valves in industries such as:
Oil & gas
Power generation
Chemical processing
By leveraging HART communication, operators can remotely monitor valve friction, travel time, and overall device health, reducing the need for manual field inspections.
Q: How does the 8C-PAOHA1 handle hardware failures?
A: When paired in a redundant IOTA configuration, if the primary module fails, the secondary module seamlessly takes over control of the 4–20 mA loops, ensuring uninterrupted operation.
Q: What is the difference between this and a non-HART version?
A: The 8C-PAOHA1 enables digital communication with smart instruments, allowing remote calibration and detailed asset management, which standard analog output modules cannot support.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
Finding brand new, original modules is critical for our safety. This team delivers factory-fresh components with full certification. Their commitment to only selling new products makes them our most trusted partner.
We have sourced Honeywell and Schneider parts here for two years. Every shipment arrives well-packaged with original factory seals intact. Clear communication and the best lead times in the industry.
