Foxboro P0700KR Product Description

Product Overview

The Foxboro P0700KR is a high-reliability termination cable assembly engineered exclusively for the FBM17C I/O module within the Foxboro I/A Series Distributed Control System (DCS). It serves as a dedicated interconnect solution for dry contact input and 0.5 A current signals, delivering stable, noise-immune transmission between field devices and the control system. Optimized for industrial process environments, the P0700KR streamlines cabinet wiring, minimizes installation errors, and supports continuous operation in mission-critical applications.

Core Features

FBM17C-Specific Termination Design

Precision-tailored for the Foxboro FBM17C I/O module, the P0700KR is designed to support dry contact (contact sense) and 0.5 A current signals. Its factory-matched pinout and wiring configuration align exactly with the FBM17C’s termination requirements, enabling direct, adapter-free connections and eliminating signal mismatch risks.

Rugged Industrial-Grade Construction

Built to endure harsh industrial conditions, the P0700KR features high-quality stranded copper conductors with a flame-retardant PVC insulation jacket that resists oil, chemicals, abrasion, and aging. Both ends are pre-terminated with precision-crimped, locking contacts, ensuring low contact resistance, secure mating, and reduced on-site wiring effort. The assembly complies with ISA S71.04 Class G3 environmental standards, withstanding dust, humidity, and heavy electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Enhanced Signal Integrity for Low-Level Signals

The cable’s twisted-pair conductor layout effectively minimizes crosstalk and EMI, preserving accuracy for low-level contact and 0.5 A current signals. Every P0700KR undergoes 100% factory testing for continuity, insulation resistance, and dielectric strength, ensuring consistent performance in electrically noisy environments such as chemical plants, power stations, oil and gas facilities, and water treatment plants.

Flexible Installation & System Compatibility

Available in standard lengths to accommodate typical cabinet-to-field wiring distances, the P0700KR supports both local panel mounting and remote I/O configurations. Its compact, flexible jacket allows easy routing in tight cabinet spaces and around obstacles. The assembly is fully compatible with all Foxboro I/A Series hardware, including FBM17C modules, I/O racks, and termination panels, enabling plug-and-play integration without additional adapters or modifications.

Compatibility & Integration

The P0700KR is fully integrated into the Foxboro I/A Series DCS ecosystem, designed as a direct-fit accessory for the FBM17C I/O module. It connects directly to the module’s termination port on one end and field devices on the other, eliminating the need for custom wiring or third-party adapters. This native compatibility reduces installation time, minimizes wiring errors, and simplifies spare parts management for I/A Series systems.

Warranty & Support

The Foxboro P0700KR comes with a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. It is delivered in new, original anti-static packaging to prevent electrostatic damage during transit. Global technical support and spare parts availability are provided to ensure reliable performance and minimal downtime for industrial automation operations worldwide.
