Honeywell FS-SICC-0001/L3.25
Overview
The FS-SICC-0001/L3 is a high-performance system interconnection cable engineered for Honeywell Safety Manager and Fail-Safe Controller (FSC) architectures. It bridges Safety Manager I/O modules with Field Termination Assemblies (FTAs), guaranteeing secure, low-loss, and noise-immune signal transmission in safety-critical process environments. The “/L3” suffix designates a 3-meter nominal deployment length. (Note: the “.25” sub-suffix in the query is not represented in Honeywell’s standard public parts catalog — the documented length code is /L3 = 3 m.)

Features
- Double-shielded construction prevents EMI/RFI corruption of safety-critical signals
- Factory-terminated precision connectors eliminate field-wiring errors
- Streamlines field wiring in safety-instrumented systems (SIS)
- 3 m length suited for short-distance intra-cabinet and adjacent-cabinet links
Applications
Links Safety Manager I/O cards to FTAs in SIL-rated safety-instrumented systems across oil & gas, chemical, power, and pharmaceutical process plants.
Installation & Notes
Always de-energize and lock out all power feeds to the Safety Manager I/O racks and field termination loops before installing or disconnecting. Align the multi-pin connectors precisely with the module backplane and FTA terminal block header; fasten thumbscrews or locking mechanisms securely. Route through designated cable trays, avoiding sharp bends and proximity to high-voltage lines. Verify that the double-shielded outer braid makes continuous contact with the cabinet earth ground bar. Confirm the exact length suffix (/L3) matches the bill-of-material requirement before procurement.
