PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Mounting

MODULE

FBM216 mounts on a modular baseplate. The

baseplate can be mounted on a DIN rail

(horizontally or vertically), or horizontally on a

19-inch rack using a mounting kit. Refer to

PSS 21H-2W6 B4 for details.

TERMINATION ASSEMBLY

The TA mounts on a DIN rail and accommodates

multiple DIN rail styles including 32 mm (1.26 in)

and 35 mm 1.38 in).

TERMINATION ASSEMBLIES AND CABLES

Field input signals connect to the FBM subsystem via

DIN rail mounted Termination Assemblies, which are

electrically passive. TAs for the FBM216 are

available in the following forms:

Compression screw type using Polyvinyl Chloride

(PVC) material

Compression screw type using Polyamide (PA)

material

Ring lug type using PVC material

See the following “FUNCTIONAL SPECIFICATIONS –

TERMINATION ASSEMBLIES” for a list of TAs used

with the FBM216.

The FBM216 provides sufficient loop resistance to

allow use of the HART Hand-Held Terminal, or PC20

Intelligent Field Device Configurator (PSS 2A-1Z3 E).

A removable termination cable connects the DIN rail

mounted TA to the FBM via a field connector on the

baseplate in which the FBM is installed. Termination

cables are available in the following materials:

Polyurethane

Hypalon XLP.

Termination cables are available in a variety of

lengths, up to 30 meters (98 feet), allowing the

Termination Assembly to be mounted in either the

enclosure or in an adjacent enclosure. See Table 2

for a list of termination cables used with the TAs for

the FBM216.
