ABB 3BHE020356R0101 GFD212A Digital Output Module

Product Short Description

Technical Specifications:

Output Channels: Typically features 16 independent digital output channels, supporting parallel signal output for multi-device control.
Output Voltage/Current: Compatible with standard industrial levels (e.g., 24V DC, 110V AC) and rated output current per channel (e.g., 2A @ 24V DC) to drive external actuators.
Protection Level: Complies with IP20 (for module itself) or higher when installed in a cabinet, ensuring resistance to dust and accidental contact.
Operating Temperature Range: -10°C to +60°C, suitable for harsh industrial site temperature conditions.
Power Supply: Operates on a standard DCS system power supply (e.g., 24V DC ±10%), with low power consumption (e.g., <5W when idle).
Response Time: Digital output response time ≤10ms, ensuring real-time control of external devices.

Functional Features:

High-Reliability Output Control: Provides stable digital output signals to drive external devices such as relays, contactors, solenoid valves, and indicator lights.
Built-in Protection Mechanisms: Equipped with overcurrent protection and short-circuit protection per channel to prevent module damage from external circuit faults.
System Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with ABB Symphony Plus/INFI 90 DCS, supporting data communication via the system’s internal bus (e.g., Profibus, Ethernet).
Hot-Swappable Design: Supports hot swapping (when the system allows) for on-site maintenance without shutting down the entire control system, reducing downtime.
Status Monitoring: Features LED indicators for each output channel (e.g., “ON” for active output, “FAULT” for abnormal status) to enable quick fault diagnosis.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Resistance: Meets IEC 61000-6-2 industrial EMI standards, ensuring stable operation in high-electromagnetic-interference environments (e.g., near motors or transformers).

Application Scenarios:

Power Generation Industry: Used in thermal power plants, hydropower plants, and nuclear power plants to control auxiliary equipment (e.g., pump start/stop, valve opening/closing, and alarm light activation).
Chemical and Petrochemical Industry: Applied in process control systems to drive control valves, shut-off valves, and pump motors in reaction vessels, pipelines, and storage tanks.
Metallurgical Industry: Integrated into steel mill or aluminum plant control systems to control conveyor belts, heating furnace switches, and cooling system actuators.
Pharmaceutical and Food Processing Industry: Used in automated production lines to control conveyor motors, packaging machine actuators, and sterile room environmental control devices (compatible with clean room requirements).
Water Treatment and Environmental Protection: Deployed in sewage treatment plants or water supply systems to control sludge pumps, aeration equipment, and water level control valves.
