Description
Based on our previous discussions and information found online, the ABB AO801 appears to be an 8-channel analog output module used within ABB’s industrial automation systems, specifically the S800 I/O series. Here’s a breakdown of its functionalities:
-
Function (Analog Output Module):
-
- The AO801 module receives digital control signals from the S800 controller and converts them into analog voltage or current signals. These analog signals are then used to control various devices in the automation system, such as:
- Valves (opening/closing)
- Motors (speed control)
- Actuators (position control)
- Inverters (controlling AC motor speed and direction)
-
Specifications:
- Channels: 8 (can output analog signals to 8 devices simultaneously)
- Output Type: Analog voltage or current (specific ranges depend on the model variant)
- Resolution: Resolution details might be unavailable without the exact model variant or d
- atasheet.
-
Applications (Within ABB S800 I/O Systems):
- The AO801 would have been used in various industrial automation applications requiring analog signal outputs for controlling devices, such as:
- Factory automation (controlling machine processes, motor speeds).
- Process control systems (regulating flow rates, temperatures, pressures).
- Building automation systems (HVAC control systems for dampers, valves).
- The AO801 would have been used in various industrial automation applications requiring analog signal outputs for controlling devices, such as:
