Product Short Description
Product Name: ABB 408368 IAM Module (Interface & Data-processing Module for Advant OCS)
Product Introduction: The 408368 is an I/O interface and data-processing module designed for ABB’s Advant OCS distributed control system. It acts as a “switching station” between the main processor and remote I/O modules, transmitting control commands downstream and returning field-device signals (sensor data, switch states) to the controller.
Description
Technical Specifications (commonly documented):
-
Manufacturer: ABB

-
Status Indication: LED indicators (power, run, fault, communication)
Alternative parameter sets from spare-part sources:
-
16 isolated digital inputs, 77–130 VAC / 75–130 VDC
-
8 analogue inputs + 4 analogue outputs, 4–20 mA / 0–10 V, 16-bit resolution, ≤±0.1% FS accuracy
Functional Features:
-
Seamless integration into existing Advant OCS architecture
-
High reliability under high-temperature, humid and EM-interference environments
-
Real-time, high-speed I/O bus communication
-
On-board LED diagnostics for rapid fault localization
-
Plug-and-play installation (minimal configuration required)
Application Scenarios: Legacy Advant OCS control systems in power plants, petrochemical facilities, pulp & paper mills, and other process industries requiring continued spare-part support for ageing DCS installations.
Installation & Notes: Install in the designated Advant OCS rack slot. Provide stable 24 VDC. Verify the exact I/O configuration (digital vs. analogue) against your system’s I/O map. Because the 408368 is a critical communications node, a failure will halt all I/O traffic on its segment—keep a verified spare in stock.
