Honeywell FC-TSAI-1620m Analog Input Module

Product Description

The FC-TSAI-1620m is a high-density analog input module designed for integration with the Honeywell Safety Manager (SM) system. It provides a critical interface for acquiring safety-related analog field signals with the diagnostic coverage and fault tolerance required for SIL-rated Safety Instrumented Functions (SIF).

Engineered for precision and reliability, the module supports 16 analog input channels commonly used for pressure, temperature, and flow transmitters in safety-critical loops. Its compact form factor, low signal drift, and strong immunity to electromagnetic interference make it well suited for ESD and Fire & Gas (F&G) applications in demanding industrial environments.

Technical Specifications

Application & Integration

The FC-TSAI-1620m is installed in the Safety Manager I/O chassis and optimized for “m” series high-availability configurations. It converts analog field signals into digital values evaluated by the safety processor against configured trip limits and safety logic.

Typical Applications

• Refinery Safety: Vessel pressure and combustible gas monitoring

• Power Generation: High-integrity steam temperature monitoring

• Offshore Platforms: ESD signal acquisition in space-constrained areas

Technical FAQ

What does the “m” suffix indicate?
It denotes compatibility with specific Safety Manager backplanes or a modernized hardware revision offering improved diagnostics and higher channel density.

Is the module hot-swappable?
Yes. When used within the Safety Manager system and following approved safety procedures, the module supports online replacement without a system shutdown.
