Answer / maulik vyas
marshalling panels are used as interface between field
junction box & dcs control panel..
It also isolates the dcs panel from feild control panel..

Marshalling means grouping of I/Os. Marshalling panel is
placed between the DCS system panel and field instruments.
In marshalling panel grouping of I/Os like Analog Input,
Analog Output, Digital Input, Digital Output and Pulse I/O
are done.From marshalling panel the I/O signals are
communicated to the system CPU/Controllers through
Isolation/Signal conditioners.
In marshalling panel we can easily identify the Input or
Output and easy diagnosis can be done in case of fault
finding.

in addition to maulik points
3. marshalling cabinets location-- if located exactly will
save much cable cost and easy for maintenance people to
trace out cable routing and fault finding

Answer / rodney
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.
