The Honeywell FC-BKM-0001 Battery and Keyswitch Module combines two critical functions into a single compact unit, delivering reliable power backup and secure system access for industrial automation setups. The module features a high-capacity 12V/7Ah rechargeable battery that provides up to 8 hours of backup power during outages, ensuring uninterrupted operation of control systems and data logging. Its intelligent charging circuit prevents over-discharge and extends battery lifespan, while low-voltage alerts notify operators of pending power loss. Paired with a three-position keyswitch (Off/Run/Program), it offers secure access control, preventing unauthorized system modifications. The keyswitch design meets ISO 13849 Category 3 safety standards, making it suitable for safety-critical applications in manufacturing, energy, and process industries.
Engineered to withstand extreme conditions, the FC-BKM-0001 is encased in a corrosion-resistant steel enclosure with IP65-rated protection against dust, moisture, and vibrations. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range (-20°C to +60°C) and supports extended storage at -40°C to +85°C, ensuring resilience in challenging climates. The module’s heavy-duty construction includes EMI/RFI shielding to maintain signal integrity in high-interference environments, while its compact dimensions (120 × 80 × 60 mm) and lightweight design (0.7 kg) simplify installation in space-constrained settings. A built-in status indicator panel provides real-time feedback on battery health, charging status, and system access mode.
Designed for effortless integration, the FC-BKM-0001 interfaces seamlessly with Honeywell’s Safety Manager, Experion, and FSC systems, ensuring compatibility with existing automation frameworks. It supports both DIN rail and panel-mount configurations, allowing flexible deployment in industrial cabinets or control panels. The module includes dual redundant power inputs (24V DC primary + battery backup) and features hot-swap capabilities for safe battery replacement without system shutdown. Backed by CE, UL, and RoHS certifications, it adheres to global safety and environmental standards. With a 1-year warranty and Honeywell’s 24/7 technical support, the FC-BKM-0001 offers long-term reliability and peace of mind for mission-critical operations in oil & gas, petrochemical, and smart factory environments.
