Features:
- The module supplies a high-power trunk from a FieldConnex Power Hub motherboard.
- Segment-to-supply galvanic isolation separates fieldbus power from the bulk input.
- Redundant operation permits module exchange while the paired supply remains in service.
The conditioned output of
HCD2-FBPS-1.500 feeds the host and trunk connections defined by its Power Hub motherboard.
A red fault LED covers output short-circuit or undervoltage conditions, while the green LED confirms the required output-voltage threshold.
The slim polycarbonate module mounts on the motherboard and is approved for the documented Zone 2 or Class I, Division 2 arrangement.
The Pepperl+Fuchs HCD2-FBPS-1.500 Fieldbus Power Supply may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

From bulk input to fieldbus trunk
- Bulk connection: the motherboard presents the external DC supply to the plug-in module.
- Conditioning stage: HCD2-FBPS-1.500 regulates the energy for the connected fieldbus segment.
- Host side: the Power Hub routes communication toward the host connection.
- Trunk side: the isolated output supplies devices along the high-power trunk.
Paired supply operation
- Parallel modules: two power supplies share the segment load through the motherboard circuits.
- Live exchange: one HCD2-FBPS-1.500 can be removed while its redundant partner continues supplying the segment.
- Tool-free action: the plug-in form allows module exchange without disconnecting field wiring.
- Pair verification: both positions are checked for the same complete supply-module designation.
Interpreting output condition
- Green PWR: an output above 28 V confirms that the segment-voltage threshold is present.
- Red ERR: a flashing indication identifies output undervoltage or short circuit.
- No PWR: the bulk input, motherboard contact and module output are traced in that order.
- Separate diagnosis: a healthy supply indication does not by itself verify every downstream device.
Installation-rating boundaries
- Location: the documented arrangement covers Zone 2 or Class I, Division 2 installation.
- Protection level: the IP20 housing depends on the surrounding cabinet and approved system assembly.
- Ambient limit: the installation maintains the specified operating-temperature range.
- Approvals: the module is used with the listed ATEX, IECEx and FM conditions for the complete system.
