The Honeywell FC-IOCHAS-0001S is a 19-inch rack-mounted chassis engineered for non-redundant I/O module integration, delivering stable performance in industrial automation systems. Its modular design supports up to 18 slots for analog, digital, and discrete signal processing, enabling flexible configurations tailored to specific application needs. The chassis features dual power inputs (24V DC) and hot-swap capabilities, ensuring continuous operation during module replacement. Built with high-grade aluminum alloy, it balances lightweight construction (0.6 kg) with structural durability, while EMI/RFI shielding maintains signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. Ideal for cost-sensitive projects requiring single-channel reliability, it interfaces seamlessly with Honeywell’s Safety Manager and Experion PKS systems, providing real-time monitoring for process industries such as manufacturing, water treatment, and power distribution.
Designed to withstand extreme conditions, the FC-IOCHAS-0001S offers IP65-rated protection against dust, moisture, and vibrations. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range (-20°C to +60°C) and supports extended storage at -40°C to +85°C, ensuring resilience in challenging climates. The chassis includes surge protection and corrosion-resistant components, minimizing maintenance in corrosive industrial settings. Its compact dimensions (244 × 178 × 53 mm) facilitate installation in space-constrained control panels, while LED status indicators simplify troubleshooting. Backed by CE, UL, and RoHS certifications, it adheres to global safety and environmental standards, making it suitable for outdoor or high-contamination applications like oil & gas field operations and chemical processing.
The FC-IOCHAS-0001S supports multiple communication protocols (Modbus RTU, Profibus DP) and features M12 connectors for secure, high-speed data transfer. Its compatibility with Honeywell’s FTA (Fault Tolerant Architecture) modules ensures backward integration with legacy systems, while advanced cybersecurity features (IEC 62443-4-1 certified) protect against network threats. The chassis accommodates up to 10A per channel input capacity, making it suitable for high-power I/O devices. With a 1-year warranty and Honeywell’s technical support, it delivers long-term reliability for applications such as burner management, conveyor control, and building automation. Its scalable design and cost-effective performance position it as a practical choice for upgrading non-critical industrial processes.
