MVI56-AFC ProSoft Liquid & Gas Flow Computer Module for 1756 ControlLogix

The ProSoft Technology MVI56-AFC is single-slot in-chassis flow computer module for Rockwell 1756 ControlLogix PAC. It performs custody-transfer grade hydrocarbon liquid and gas flow calculations following AGA, API industry standards. It acts as a dedicated co-processor, handling flow computation, volume accumulation, event logging and historical archiving, offloading heavy math tasks from ControlLogix CPU. It features dual isolated serial Modbus ports for communication with remote instruments and SCADA systems. Technical data sourced directly from official ProSoft MVI56-AFC datasheet & user manual. Supplied by SHLY-PLC, an independent industrial automation distributor; each unit undergoes visual inspection and functional testing before shipment for retrofit and spare replacement projects. Contact our team for compatibility verification.

Compatibility & Cross-References

The MVI56-AFC is a serial-only flow computer module, without onboard Ethernet port. Compare with upgraded MVI56E-AFC which adds Ethernet Modbus TCP, Enron Modbus and expanded archive support. MVI56-AFC receives process data from ControlLogix analog/pulse I/O modules and performs custody transfer flow calculations locally, returning totals and computed values back to the Logix controller.

Applications

  • Oil & gas pipeline custody transfer measurement
  • Hydrocarbon liquid and gas flow totalization following AGA/API standards
  • SCADA integration via Modbus serial for meter archives, alarms and event audit logs
  • Retrofit replacement for legacy standalone flow computers in ControlLogix chassis
