Description

The Honeywell FC-QPP-0002 CC V2.0 is a high-reliability, redundant power supply module designed specifically for the Experion® Process Knowledge System (PKS) Quantum platform—Honeywell’s flagship distributed control system (DCS) used in continuous and batch process industries. This module powers critical components such as the FTEB (Fault Tolerant Ethernet Baseplate), C300 controllers, Safety Manager I/O, and other modules installed in Quantum I/O chassis within redundant or high-availability control architectures.

As part of Honeywell’s Quantum Power Platform (QPP), the FC-QPP-0002 CC V2.0 delivers stable, filtered 24 VDC output with built-in current limiting, overvoltage protection, and thermal shutdown. Its “CC” designation indicates compatibility with Common Chassis configurations supporting both standard and safety-rated I/O, while “V2.0” denotes the updated hardware revision featuring improved efficiency, enhanced diagnostic LEDs, and better thermal performance compared to earlier versions. Designed for N+1 redundancy, multiple FC-QPP-0002 units can operate in parallel within a single chassis—ensuring uninterrupted operation even if one power supply fails.

Widely deployed in oil & gas refineries, chemical plants, LNG terminals, and pharmaceutical facilities, the FC-QPP-0002 CC V2.0 plays a foundational role in maintaining system integrity during grid fluctuations, brownouts, or internal faults—making it indispensable for applications requiring SIL 2 compliance and 24/7 operational continuity.

Technical Specifications

Main Features and Advantages

Hot-swappable & field-replaceable:
The FC-QPP-0002 CC V2.0 can be replaced without powering down the chassis—critical for continuous processes where shutdowns cost millions per hour. Integrated handle and keyed connector ensure safe insertion/removal under load.

Advanced diagnostics & predictive maintenance:
Real-time status LEDs and integration with Experion PKS alarm system allow operators to detect early signs of degradation (e.g., rising internal temperature, reduced output margin). Fault logs are accessible via System Management Studio (SMS).

Robust design for harsh environments:
Conformal-coated PCBs, wide input voltage tolerance, and surge immunity (per IEC 61000-4) make the FC-QPP-0002 CC V2.0 suitable for offshore platforms, desert installations, and humid tropical sites.

Seamless integration with Experion ecosystem:
Automatically recognized by C300 controllers and FTEB backplanes. No configuration required—power sharing and load balancing are managed autonomously between redundant units.

Application Field

The FC-QPP-0002 CC V2.0 is essential in any Experion PKS installation requiring high availability:

• Oil & Gas: Powers C300 controllers managing distillation columns, compressors, and flare systems in refineries.

• Chemical Processing: Supports Safety Manager I/O for emergency shutdown (ESD) and burner management systems (BMS).

• Pharmaceuticals: Ensures uninterrupted operation of batch reactors and purification skids under GMP compliance.

• LNG & Petrochemical: Used in FTE-redundant racks controlling cryogenic valves and refrigeration compressors.

• Power & Water: Deployed in combined-cycle plants and desalination facilities for boiler/turbine control.
