SDCS-COM-81

The ABB SDCS-COM-81 is a versatile fiber optic communication interface board designed for advanced industrial automation systems. This module, manufactured by ABB Low Voltage Drives, enhances connectivity and control within drive systems. It features multiple communication channels, each optimized for specific functions. Channel 0 operates at 10 Mb/s for overriding system control, supporting systems like APC2 and AC80. Channel 1, running at 5 Mb/s, is dedicated to DDCS I/O extension, compatible with AIMA-01. Channel 2, also at 10 Mb/s, establishes a Master-Follower link for direct drive-to-drive communication. Channel 3, at 10 Mb/s, facilitates PC tool connectivity, such as ABB's DriveWindow software. The board also includes connector X19 for direct support of the CDP312RD panel. Key specifications include hot-swap capability for uninterrupted operation and module redundancy options for enhanced system reliability. The module utilizes RJ-45 female connectors for channels 1, 2, and 3, and a DB female (9-pin) connector for channel 0. It operates on a 24V DC supply with a typical current consumption of 150 mA. The protection class is IP20 according to EN60529, IEC 529. Dimensions are 58 mm width x 186 mm height x 135 mm depth (2.3 x 7.3 x 5.3 in.), with a weight of 700 g (1.5 lbs). Certifications include CE marking, UL 508, and UL 60079-15 (Class 1 Zone 2), ensuring compliance with international safety and environmental standards, including RoHS and WEEE directives. The SDCS-COM-81 is an integral part of ABB's robust drive communication solutions, enabling efficient and reliable data exchange in demanding industrial environments.
