Features:
- 8-Channel Thermocouple and Millivolt Input Processing for S800 I/O Systems
- Comprehensive Compatibility with Twelve Standard Thermocouple Types Including B, C, D, E, J, K, L, N, R, S, T and U
- Direct Integration with ABB Module Termination Units TU810, TU812, TU814, TU818, TU830, TU833
The ABB AI835A 3BSE051306R1 functions as the Thermocouple/mV Input Module in the S800 I/O rack, providing accurate analog signal acquisition for all eight input channels. It continuously processes low-level millivolt signals from field-mounted temperature sensors including Types B, C, D, E, J, K, L, N, R, S, T and U, transforming these raw sensor inputs into digital data for the control system. Precise signal conditioning is inherent to the AI835A 3BSE051306R1, ensuring reliable temperature measurement across diverse industrial environments. This AI835A 3BSE051306R1 module solves the fundamental challenge of centralized multi-point temperature monitoring by consolidating eight independent thermocouple channels into a single unit, thereby simplifying wiring infrastructure while preserving measurement accuracy and signal integrity.
The AI835A 3BSE051306R1 delivers essential analog input capabilities fundamental to the control loop, serving as a critical element in the measurement path that directly influences proper, normal operation of the overall process control system. One or multiple AI835A 3BSE051306R1 modules may be deployed per S800 I/O rack according to the required channel density. The module installs in a standard I/O slot and requires pairing with designated Module Termination Units TU810, TU812, TU814, TU818, TU830, or TU833 to achieve correct field wiring termination, secure electrical connectivity, and reliable signal distribution between the field devices and the controller.
For extensive temperature monitoring requirements, the S800 architecture supports installation of several AI835A 3BSE051306R1 modules within a single rack configuration. Each AI835A 3BSE051306R1 manages its own eight channels independently, preventing signal cross-interference between adjacent process measurement points. The control system monitors operational status of every AI835A 3BSE051306R1 through the I/O communication bus, enabling rapid identification of channel-specific faults or measurement anomalies. Through this modular approach, operations can expand temperature monitoring coverage incrementally by integrating additional AI835A 3BSE051306R1 units while maintaining uniform measurement performance across the entire installation.
The AI835A 3BSE051306R1 ABB Analog Input Module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
