ABB S800 I/O ModuleBus and I/O Density Scaling
The ABB TU813 applies the S800 I/O backplane bus architecture to distribute ModuleBus power and communication signals between connected I/O modules and adjacent MTUs. Therefore, the unit maintains automatic address generation through signal position shifting without requiring manual address configuration.
The TU813 supports I/O density scaling through eight isolated channels and sixteen field connection points. Additionally, the mechanical keying system uses two six-position rotary keys to create 36 possible configurations, preventing incompatible I/O module installation.
The unit follows ABB industrial control hardware design principles, including backplane bus communication management, modular I/O expansion, and firmware flash compatibility considerations within the S800 I/O platform.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the ABB TU813 provide electrical isolation between field channels?
A: Yes. The TU813 provides eight isolated field channels for connecting compatible ABB S800 I/O modules. The unit functions as a passive termination interface and does not process field signals.
Q: Can the TU813 operate with redundant MTU configurations?
A: No. The TU813 is specified as a single non-redundant Compact Module Termination Unit. Redundancy functions depend on the selected I/O module and system configuration.
Q: How does the TU813 prevent incorrect I/O module installation?
A: The TU813 uses mechanical keying with two six-position rotary keys. The key positions define compatible module insertion configurations.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Mount the TU813 directly on a standard DIN rail using the integrated locking mechanism.
- Verify that the installed I/O module matches the mechanical key configuration before insertion.
- Route field wiring separately from high-voltage power cables to reduce electrical interference.
- Ensure terminal connections use suitable wire sizes within the specified 0.2 to 2.5 mm² range.
- Connect the DIN rail grounding path according to the cabinet grounding design.
- Maintain proper cabinet ventilation to keep the operating temperature within the specified range.
- Check ModuleBus alignment between adjacent MTUs before completing the installation.
