G3FCb HENF458568R1
Product Name
ABB G3FCb HENF458568R1 Redundant Power Supply Module (Advant OCS Control System Dedicated)
(Naming convention explanation for ABB Advant OCS components:
-
-
- “G3FCb”: Product family identifier, denoting “3rd-Generation Fault-Tolerant Power Supply” with “Cb” specifying the compact, backplane-mounted variant (distinguished from bulkier “G3FA” rack-mounted models).
- “HENF458568R1″: ABB’s unique part number—”HENF” identifies the Advant OCS power accessory line; “458568” is the base model code; “R1” denotes hardware revision 1, ensuring compatibility with late-model Advant controllers.
- Core positioning: Acts as the “fault-tolerant power backbone” for Advant OCS systems, delivering dual-redundant DC power to I/O modules, processors, and communication hubs to prevent downtime from single power supply failures.)

2. Product Description
The ABB G3FCb HENF458568R1 is a rugged, industrial-grade redundant power supply module engineered to address uninterrupted power delivery challenges in critical process control environments (e.g., oil refinery DCS, nuclear power auxiliary systems, chemical batch control). As a core power component of ABB’s Advant OCS platform—renowned for high availability in mission-critical applications—it delivers validated value through four key capabilities:
2.1 1+1 Redundant Power Design
Incorporates dual independent power supply channels to eliminate single-point failures:
-
-
- Operates in 1+1 redundancy mode: Both channels run concurrently, sharing the load (50% each under normal conditions); if one channel fails, the remaining channel automatically takes over 100% of the load within <10ms—ensuring no disruption to connected Advant OCS components (e.g., PM511 processors, AI810 I/O modules).
- Supports hot-swapping of failed channels: Allows replacement of a faulty power module without shutting down the system, critical for 24/7 processes where even seconds of downtime cause significant losses.
-
2.2 Wide Input Voltage Range & Stable Output
Adapts to fluctuating grid conditions while delivering consistent power to Advant OCS components:
-
- Accepts a broad AC input range (85–264V AC, 50/60Hz), making it suitable for global deployment (e.g., 110V AC in North America, 230V AC in Europe/Asia) and resilient to voltage sags/swells common in industrial power grids.
