Foxboro P0800DC Fieldbus Isolator/Terminal Block Cable

Product Description

The Foxboro P0800DC is a dual-wide carrier assembly designed for I/A Series® Fieldbus Modules (FBM). It provides reliable mechanical support and integrates fieldbus isolators and terminal block cabling. Therefore, signals from field devices such as sensors, actuators, and transmitters are precisely isolated, terminated, and routed into the Foxboro Distributed Control System (DCS).

Engineered for industrial environments, the P0800DC ensures clean, organized wiring while protecting modules from electrical noise and surges. Moreover, its dual-wide configuration supports two FBM modules simultaneously, simplifying system expansion. Integrated isolation and redundancy enhance system reliability, making it ideal for process industries such as oil & gas, chemical, power generation, and water treatment.

Installation is straightforward with panel or rack mounting, and the rugged industrial-grade construction ensures long-term operation even in harsh conditions. In addition, the integrated terminal blocks and isolators reduce wiring complexity, minimize installation errors, and improve system uptime.
