Function Features

• High-Density Channel Design: 16 independent input channels in a compact 32 mm width, maximizing cabinet space utilization and reducing the number of modules required for large-scale I/O configurations.
• Rugged Isolation Protection: Group-level and module-level isolation prevents damage from voltage transients, ground loops, and electrical noise—ensuring signal integrity even in high-interference environments (e.g., near large motors or variable frequency drives).
• Fast Response & Configurable Filtering: 1 ms maximum response time captures rapid state changes (e.g., emergency stop triggers, limit switch activation), while adjustable filter time (0.1 ms–100 ms) optimizes signal stability: shorter filters for fast processes, longer filters for noisy settings.
• Comprehensive Diagnostics: Built-in self-diagnostic functions monitor:
  • Channel overloads (excessive input current)
  • Power supply abnormalities (under-voltage on backplane or field power)
  • Internal circuit faults (e.g., communication chip errors)

    Diagnostic data is transmitted to the central control system, enabling remote troubleshooting and minimizing downtime.

• Wide Voltage Tolerance: 19.2 V DC–30 V DC input voltage range accommodates fluctuations in field power supplies, ensuring consistent performance even in unstable electrical environments.
• Easy Installation & Configuration:
  • DIN rail-mountable design for quick integration into standard AC 800M racks.
  • Configurable via ABB Control Builder M software—users can set filter times, channel labels, and alarm conditions intuitively, with no physical hardware adjustments required.
• Seamless System Compatibility: Fully compatible with ABB AC 800M/AC 800xA control systems, including redundant CPU architectures. It synchronizes with the central controller to ensure consistent data transmission even during CPU failover.
