Key Features & Benefits
The Honeywell FC-TSAI-1620M provides sixteen analog input channels. These channels split into two groups of eight with common 0 V. The module enables monitoring of external power connected to the FTA. You get power distribution to each transmitter with hazardous area compliance. The FC-TSAI-1620M achieves 0.1% conversion accuracy. It supports both safety-related and non-safety-related applications in one unit.
Installation Guide
Follow these steps to install the Honeywell FC-TSAI-1620M correctly.
Mount the FTA module on a TS32 or TS35 DIN EN rail.
Use exactly 211 mm of rail length for secure fitting.
Connect field wiring using 2.5 mm² (AWG 14) wire max.
Strip each wire to 7 mm before inserting into screw terminals.
Tighten screws to 0.5 Nm torque for reliable connection.
Plug the SICC-0001/Lx cable into the SIC connector.
Apply 30 Vdc external power to the module terminals.
Check each channel for proper 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA signals.
