FS-SICC-0001/L7 System Interconnection Cable | Honeywell

Configured for high-integrity inter-rack signal routing in FSC and Experion systems, the Honeywell FS-SICC-0001/L7 (FS-SICC-0001 System Interconnection Cable) provides direct physical/electrical execution.

Hardware Specifications

4-20 mA HART Loop Protocol and Channel-to-Channel Isolation

The FS-SICC-0001/L7 cable assembly incorporates channel-to-channel isolation principles to suppress electromagnetic interference and radio frequency noise across industrial control environments. Utilizing double-shielded AWG 22 conductors, the physical cable layer limits signal attenuation and cross-talk during parallel routing. The assembly transports discrete safety telemetry and 4-20 mA HART loop protocol field signals between central processing racks and remote termination sub-assemblies without line distortion over the 7 m span.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the FS-SICC-0001/L7 cable be disconnected while the host system remains powered?

A: Disconnection during active operation is permissible only within parallel redundant communication configurations; removing a single-channel cable severs active I/O communication to the central controller.

Q: How does double-shielding impact signal integrity in high-EMI noise environments?

A: The outer foil and braided shield layers isolate internal AWG 22 conductors from external high-frequency electrical fields, preventing induced voltages from corrupting low-level analog loops.

Q: What is the conductor sizing used inside the cable assembly?

A: The cable utilizes 20-core AWG 22 (approx. 0.34 mm2) stranded copper conductors for flexible cabinet wireway installation.

Field Installation Guidelines

• Route the cable assembly through dedicated wire trays or conduit, maintaining a minimum static bending radius of 60 mm to avoid damaging the outer jacket or internal foil shield.
• Align factory-terminated pin headers precisely with chassis module connectors before applying seating force, then secure mechanical retention screws to maintain a vibration-proof electrical contact.
• Ensure shield drain terminations bond to the cabinet main earth bar at a single grounding point to eliminate ground potential loops.
• Maintain a minimum 30 cm separation distance between the interconnection cable and high-voltage AC power wiring within cabinet raceways.
