Safety Manager I/O Mounting Carrier Honeywell FC-MCAR-01

Product Description

The FC-MCAR-01 is a specialized mounting carrier designed for the Honeywell Safety Manager (SM) system. It provides the structural and electrical backbone for Field Termination Assemblies (FTAs) and I/O modules, enabling organized, secure, and high-density wiring in industrial control cabinets.

Constructed from durable metal with a protective plastic cover, the FC-MCAR-01 integrates power and ground rails for simplified electrical distribution and grounding. It is ideal for SIL-rated safety systems, supporting Emergency Shutdown (ESD) and Fire & Gas (F&G) applications.

Technical Specifications

Key Installation Features

• Robust Grounding: 16-point ground rail ensures low-impedance termination of cable shields, reducing EMI.

• Power Connectivity: Dual +24VDC rails allow simple daisy-chaining to multiple FTAs, minimizing wiring complexity.

• Durability: Metal frame ensures modules remain securely seated, even under vibration.

• Space Optimization: Slim profile maximizes vertical space in 19-inch or 800mm-wide industrial enclosures.

Technical FAQ

How many FTAs can be mounted on one FC-MCAR-01?
The carrier accommodates multiple FTAs, with standardized power and ground connections along the entire row. Exact quantity depends on FTA width.

Is the FC-MCAR-01 compatible with third-party DIN rail modules?
It is optimized for Honeywell SM hardware. While industrial mounting principles apply, hole patterns and power rail configurations are tailored to Honeywell FTAs and I/O modules.
