Information
- Emerson 8623-FT-IS. This PAC8000 terminal connects discrete hazardous-area field signals to a matched intrinsically safe digital-input module.
Matched I/O module: 8220-DI-IS, 16-channel DI
Field channels: 16 digital-input terminations
Field-terminal key: B / 1 with 8220-DI-IS
The approved 8220-DI-IS pairing uses field-terminal key position B/1. The terminal uses module-side multipin connectors and screw-clamp field wiring with a tagging strip. The blue terminal body identifies intrinsically safe field connections, while the separate I/O module and carrier remain necessary parts of the assembly.
IECEx BAS 12.0023U covers the 8623-FT-IS as a 16-channel IS field terminal and limits terminal input/output voltage to 30 V. Field-device type, cable, power arrangement and certificate entity parameters must be checked as a complete loop; do not apply the RTD terminal wiring diagrams of 8626-FT-IS to this DI terminal.

Prepared by Apter Power - PDF, 5 pages. Identity, installed-system checks, commissioning and handover.
Compatibility boundary: Pair the full terminal reference with 8220-DI-IS and its B/1 key position, then follow diagram 6 and the approved IS loop design.
-
Switch contacts
Bring approved dry-contact field signals to designated 8220-DI-IS input channels. -
Proximity detection
Terminate compatible intrinsically safe proximity-detector circuits in their assigned DI positions. -
Channel identification
Use the terminal tagging strip to preserve the field-device-to-channel map during maintenance. -
System replacement
Keep the 16-channel 8623 terminal distinct from the eight-channel 8624-FT-IS loop-disconnect variant.
Apply the area and site isolation procedure before removing the terminal.
Verify the 8220-DI-IS module and B/1 key before fitting the terminal.
Trace each assigned input conductor against the 8623-FT-IS terminal diagram.
Keep the approved assembly within the certificate’s 30 V terminal limit.
Inspect terminal screw engagement and channel tagging before service.
Prove each restored input state and the corresponding controller indication.
