855T-DS2BCB | Allen-Bradley Control Tower Stack Light Mounting Base, Surface / 1/2 inch NPT Conduit Mount, DeviceNet Stranded Wire Connect, Black Housing, No Cap

The 855T-DS2BCB is a DeviceNet-enabled base for 70 mm Allen-Bradley Control Tower Stack Lights. It provides a physical foundation for installing light modules and facilitates communication and power delivery via a stranded DeviceNet cable. Its primary role is to serve as both the mounting point and the communication/power interface for modular light stacks in industrial automation environments.

The base offers a surface/1/2 inch NPT conduit mounting option. This means it can be securely fastened to a panel or enclosure surface or installed using conduit fittings, making it flexible for various installation scenarios. It is ideal for high-vibration environments and supports stable alignment of stacked modules.

Yes, the 855T-DS2BCB is engineered for rugged industrial use. It features an IP65 and UL Type 4/4X/13 ingress protection rating, meaning it is resistant to water, dust, and corrosion. This makes it well-suited for outdoor, washdown, or high-humidity environments such as food processing or automotive manufacturing.

The base supports multiple DeviceNet baud rates: 125K, 250K, 500K, and Autobaud. This gives users flexibility in configuring their network according to the requirements of other connected devices or bandwidth needs.

Yes, the 855T-DS2BCB is currently in active production as confirmed by Rockwell Automation. It is fully supported and available for both new system designs and replacement installations. The product is actively used in modern industrial setups where DeviceNet communication is implemented.
