Overview

The ABB Installation Products SKU PAC79 is an Aluminum Type PAC Parallel Groove Clamp. This clamp is engineered for reliable electrical connections in overhead and underground distribution systems. It features a cast copper liner, specifically designed to accommodate a wide range of conductor sizes and types, ensuring optimal contact and conductivity. The main conductor range supported includes 336.4-1/0 AWG ASCR, 1/0-6 AR ASCR, 400-2/0 Stranded Aluminum, and 1/0-6 AWG Aluminum/Copper (AL/CU). For tap connections, it is compatible with ASCR conductors from 1/0 Stranded to 8 AWG Solid, as well as AL/CU conductors. Each clamp is prefilled with an oxide inhibitor, a crucial step in preventing corrosion and maintaining low resistance contact over the lifespan of the connection, particularly important when joining dissimilar metals like aluminum and copper. This product is essential for utility and industrial applications requiring secure and durable conductor terminations. Its robust construction and material composition are suited for the demanding conditions encountered in power transmission and distribution networks. The UNSPSC code for this product is 39121449.

The FSO 12 safety functions module supports the following functions according to EN/IEC 61800-5-2:2007: Safe Torque Off (STO) (standard feature of the drive), Safe Brake Control (SBC), Safe Stop 1 (SS1), and, Safely-Limited Speed (SLS). Additional safety functions supported but not specified in EN/IEC 61800-5-2:2007: Safe Stop Emergency (SSE), Safe Maximum Speed (SMS), and, Prevention of Unexpected Start-up (POUS). The FSO 12 does not operate the drive, it only monitors the actions of the drive and commands safety functions to be executed. The request for safety functions can come from an external safety system, safety PLC or from an FSO 12 internal fault. The FSO module monitors that the drive operates within the configured limits, and if the limits are exceeded, activates the STO function in the drive within the response time. Activation of the drive STO function removes the torque and, if so configured, applies the brake. Commissioning and configuration of the safety functions requires Drive composer pro (DCPT-01-KIT). NOTE: The Safe Torque Off (STO) function does not disconnect the voltage of the main and auxiliary circuits from the drive. NOTE: This module does not support an encoder in safety applications.
