Honeywell K4LCN-16 (51403519-160) LCN Node Memory Processor Card for TDC3000
Manufacturer: Honeywell Process Solutions
Model: K4LCN-16, Part No. 51403519-160
Series: TDC3000 / Experion PKS Legacy LCN Control System
Type: High-performance LCN bus node memory processor board
Function: Core computing & memory unit for LCN network nodes (NIM, Global Station, History Module, HM); Motorola 68040 CPU + 16MB fixed onboard memory; native LCN 5MHz bus communication; real-time data exchange between operator stations, controllers, history servers; system clock synchronization, fault diagnosis, program storage & execution for legacy DCS nodes
1. Overview
K4LCN-16 is the top-tier upgraded LCN node processor card for Honeywell classic TDC3000 DCS, replacing older K2LCN / K4LCN-4 / K4LCN-8 low-memory versions. It adopts Motorola 68040 32-bit industrial processor with fixed 16MB onboard memory (non-expandable), fully compatible with all LCN bus equipment including Network Interface Modules (NIM), Global Operator Stations, History Collectors, and Application Processors. The card integrates a dedicated LCN bus transceiver, supporting standard 5Mbps LCN synchronous communication, provides millisecond-level clock synchronization for all LCN nodes, and undertakes heavy-duty tasks such as real-time process data caching, control logic storage, trend history calculation, and operator graphic rendering. Compared with small-memory K4LCN variants, K4LCN-16 supports large-scale plant-wide DCS nodes with heavy load, especially systems with large process graphics, massive historical data storage, and multiple UCN controller connections. It is a VME rack plug-in board, supports hot-swap maintenance, widely used in petrochemical, power, oil & gas old TDC3000 system renovation and stable operation.

3. Key Features
16MB Large Fixed Memory Meet high-load node requirements; Global Station needs at least 8MB, NIM only consumes ≤4MB, reserve capacity for large graphics & historical data
68040 High-Speed 32-bit Processor Higher computing performance than old 68020 K2LCN boards, reduce LCN bus communication delay under heavy data traffic
Integrated Native LCN Transceiver No external communication daughter card, direct access to LCN control network for inter-node data transmission
System-wide Clock Synchronization Standard 5MHz LCN clock frame generation, ensure all controllers & stations run on unified time base
Full Node Compatibility Applicable to all LCN node types, single card replaces K4LCN-4 / K4LCN-8 low-memory models for unified spare parts management
VME Hot-Swap Support Replace board online without full rack power shutdown, minimize production downtime
Legacy System Upgrade Preferred Card Solve memory overflow, slow graphic refresh, historical data loss issues of old small-memory LCN processors
4. Applications
• Refinery & petrochemical plant TDC3000 Global Operator Station core processing board
• Thermal power plant boiler/turbine unit NIM network interface node memory processor
• Oil & gas pipeline compressor station LCN history data recording module main board
• Old TDC3000 system renovation upgrade, replace aging K2LCN / K4LCN-4 / K4LCN-8 boards
