FC-TSDO-0824 | Honeywell | Safe Digital Output Field Termination Assembly

The Honeywell FC-TSDO-0824 is an 8-channel safe digital output Field Termination Assembly (FTA) engineered for high-integrity industrial safety control applications. Certified up to SIL 2/3 under IEC 61508 standards, this module reliably isolates and directs digital actuation signals from safety systems to final field elements.

Power Handling and Overcurrent Safety

Each of the eight independent channels supports a maximum continuous current of 1.5 A at voltages up to 36 Vdc. Rated under IEC 61010-1 (1990) overvoltage category 3, the module maintains strict functional safety parameters while driving heavy discrete loads such as solenoids, relays, and field indicators.

Mechanical Installation and Terminal Connection

The unit mounts onto standard DIN EN rails (TS32 or TS35 × 7.5 profiles), consuming 61 mm (2.40 in) of rail space. Integrated screw terminals accept conductors up to 2.5 mm² (AWG 14), requiring a strip length of 7 mm and a tightening torque of 0.5 Nm (0.37 ft-lb) for secure field wiring.
