Weidmuller probably produced these as a special, which is likely why you
got no help from the regular "sales" guys. Even my cross reference lists
don't have the series 998400 through 998405. These were the result of a
project requirement so they were produced by a Foxboro project team for
that one project (or a few others as needed) as a custom.

There was some discussion whether there should be a standard fused
termination assembly in the I/A Series product line. Since the FBM10/15
outputs were designed with current limiting, there wasn't much need to
provide fuses unless required by customer specification. Typically it
was a local electrical code requirement. Not many were produced. 

PLCCenter lists some of these 998402 assemblies for sale new from
factory. It might be worth purchasing one just for the documentation.
You might try calling them first to see if they have stock and/or
documentation. 800-332-4336

Subject: [foxboro] Weidmuller FTA documentation

Hi List,
I'm looking for documentation on a Weidmuller field termination assembly
for a 100 series FBM10 / 15.  It's probably 10+ years old and looking at
the original quote from Foxboro it's simply listed as "fused termination
assembly".  No Foxboro part number.   What appears to be the Weidmuller
part number is   998402.  I've not had any luck with the Weidmuller web
site and when I was at User Conference last September, the people with
Weidmuller were no help.  I ran across an email on the list dated
10/16/07
from James Ellis with a similar question for this device.  Slightly
different p/n but hopefully close enough to answer the wiring questions
we
have at our Clear Lake site.  James, if you are still out there maybe
you
can help.  If anyone has documentation for this device or knows where I
can
find it please let me know.

Thanks,
