Product Description
Installed on a dedicated FCP baseplate close to the process, it executes regulatory, logic, timing and sequential control while collecting field data and evaluating alarms. Two modules can run as a synchronized 1:1 hot-standby pair for fault-tolerant, bumpless control, and the unit connects to the Foxboro Evo mesh over redundant 100 Mbps fiber-optic Ethernet. Its die-cast aluminum, fanless housing is rated for Class G3 field environments, making it a practical spare for petrochemical, power, water and pharmaceutical plants. The Foxboro FCP270 (part number P0917YZ) is the field-mounted controller at the heart of the I/A Series and EcoStruxure Foxboro DCS.
Basic Product Information
- Supports 1:1 hot-standby fault-tolerant redundancy with synchronized pairs for bumpless process continuity.
- Handles up to 32 Series 200 FBM modules directly, up to 128 with a FEM100 fieldbus expander, or up to 64 Series 100 FBMs.
- Dual redundant 100 Mbps fiber-optic Ethernet links to the Foxboro Evo mesh network, with no separate fieldbus communication module needed.
- Rugged die-cast aluminum, fanless housing rated for Class G3 harsh field environments; SIL 3 capable in a certified configuration.
- Field-mounted I/A Series controller executing regulatory, logic, timing and sequential control as the control station brain.
Technical Specifications
Version & Model Difference
P0917YZ is the part number of the FCP270 field control processor. It is used as a single (non-redundant) module or as one half of a fault-tolerant pair; the later FCP280 is the go-forward controller for newer I/A Series and Evo installations, while the FCP270 remains the correct match for existing FCP270 baseplates and firmware baselines. Confirm your baseplate model and system/firmware revision before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the FCP270 and the FCP280?
Both are I/A Series field controllers. The FCP270 (P0917YZ) matches existing FCP270 baseplates and is widely used in legacy I/A Series and Evo systems, while the FCP280 is the newer controller for current installations. Check your baseplate and firmware baseline before selecting.
Can the FCP270 be used in a redundant configuration?
Yes. Two FCP270 modules can be paired on a fault-tolerant baseplate for 1:1 hot-standby operation with synchronized data, giving bumpless failover.
How much field I/O can one FCP270 handle?
A single processor supports up to 32 Series 200 FBM modules directly, expandable to 128 with a FEM100 fieldbus expander, or up to 64 Series 100 FBM modules.
What power and environment does it require?
The module draws 24 VDC nominal and up to 8.5 W, and operates from 0 C to +60 C inside a Class G3-rated die-cast aluminum housing suitable for unvented field enclosures.
