Description
ABB DSSB140
- Technical Specifications (typical 24 V DC version):
- Input Channels: 32 (in groups of 8 or 16, isolated group-wise)
- Input Voltage (DC version): 24 V DC (18–30 V); threshold ON ≥11 V, OFF ≤5 V
- Input Current: ≈7 mA @ 24 V DC per channel
- Input Type: Voltage-sensing or dry-contact (external wetting voltage required for dry contact — module supplies 24 V via sense resistor in voltage mode)
- Isolation: Group-to-backplane 500 V DC; group-to-group within module typically NOT isolated (common 0 V per group)
- Response Time: <10 ms (typical); filter configurable 0–63 ms in some FW revisions
- Power: From S100 rack backplane (5 V logic + 24 V sense if used)
- Indicators: Module Run / Error LED; some versions have group status LEDs
- Operating Temp.: 0 °C to +60 °C
- Mounting: S100 I/O rack slot or DIN-rail mounted S100 adapter
- Certifications: CE, UL, cUL
- Functional Features / Application / Structure / Working Principle / Installation / Precautions:
- Wire N/C or N/O contacts between input terminal and common (0 V or +24 V depending on sourcing/sinking config)
- For dry contacts use voltage-input mode with internal wetting; for PNP sensors use sinking input mode
- 32-channel density minimizes rack space in large machine or substation monitoring
- Verify voltage version (24 V DC vs 110 V DC vs 230 V AC) matches field device — applying 110 V DC to 24 V DC version destroys module
- Keep separate from high-current AC power wiring; use shielded cable for long runs
