SB510 3BSE000860R1
Product Name
ABB Advant OCS Series 16-Channel Digital Input Module (Model: SB510; Part Number: 3BSE000860R1)
(Model & Part Number Interpretation:
- SB510 (Model):
- SB: Core product line prefix for ABB’s Advant OCS “Signal Board” modules, denoting compatibility with Advant OCS controllers (e.g., MasterPiece 200/300) and membership in the “SB” family of modular I/O components for process signal acquisition.
- 510: Hardware configuration code; “5” specifies digital input functionality, “10” indicates 16-channel density (optimized for medium-scale sensor monitoring) and 24 V DC signal level (industrial standard for discrete sensors).
- 3BSE000860R1 (Part Number):
- 3BSE: ABB’s legacy part code prefix for Advant OCS modules, confirming compliance with industrial control standards (IEC 61131-2, EN 60068) and compatibility with Advant OCS backplanes.
-
- 000860R1: Revision and compliance suffix; “000860” specifies firmware revision 1.0 (base model with essential diagnostic features), “R1” verifies operational compliance in harsh industrial environments (wide temperature range, vibration resistance).
- Core Positioning: The “digital input hub for Advant OCS process control,” enabling reliable capture of discrete sensor signals to support process monitoring, safety interlocks, and equipment status tracking—critical for maintaining operational stability in legacy process automation systems. )
2. Product Description
The SB510 3BSE000860R1 is a dedicated 16-channel digital input module developed by ABB for the Advant OCS (Open Control System), a legacy platform widely used in mature process industries for continuous process control. It integrates 16-channel discrete signal acquisition, channel-level galvanic isolation, robust environmental tolerance, and basic diagnostic features to address three key challenges of legacy process I/O systems:
- Reliable Sensor Signal Capture: Accepts 24 V DC discrete signals from field sensors (e.g., limit switches for valve position, proximity sensors for workpiece presence, pressure switches for line pressure) with a response time of ≤1 ms. This ensures timely detection of critical process events—such as a valve reaching its “fully open” position or a pressure switch tripping due to overpressure—enabling the Advant OCS controller to trigger immediate control actions (e.g., adjusting flow rates, activating alarms).
- Noise Immunity & Isolation: Features 500 V DC galvanic isolation between individual channels and between the module and Advant OCS backplane. This suppresses electromagnetic interference (EMI) from nearby high-voltage equipment (e.g., pumps, motors, VFDs) and prevents ground loops—common in large process plants—which can corrupt sensor signals and cause false control actions. The isolation also protects the controller from damage if a sensor circuit is accidentally shorted to high voltage.
