Details
The ABB SS832 3BSC610068R1 Power Voting Unit is a critical component in ABB's 800xA and Advant OCS distributed control systems (DCS).
It is part of the redundancy and voting system designed to ensure the reliable and fault-tolerant operation of control systems, particularly for power supplies or systems requiring multiple power sources.
Product Overview:
- Product Name: ABB SS832 Power Voting Unit
- Part Number: 3BSC610068R1
- Function: Provides power supply redundancy and enables voting in systems requiring multiple power inputs.
- Application: Used in distributed control systems (DCS) and industrial automation systems to maintain high availability and reduce the risk of power failure by managing multiple power sources.
Key Features and Functions:
- Redundancy Management:
- The Power Voting Unit is designed to manage and ensure redundancy in power supplies. It allows for the use of two or more power sources, and it continuously monitors these sources to ensure that the system remains powered even if one source fails.
- It helps eliminate single points of failure in power supply systems by providing automatic switchover between redundant power sources when necessary.
- Voting Mechanism:
- The voting system works by evaluating the status of multiple power sources. The unit will automatically select the most reliable power source (based on the voting configuration), ensuring that the control system continues to operate even when one power source fails.
- The unit can make a decision based on the "voting" configuration, typically considering the status of two or more power supplies and choosing the one that meets the required conditions for normal operation.
- Fault Tolerance:
- The SS832 Power Voting Unit plays an essential role in ensuring fault tolerance within the DCS. If a failure occurs in one of the power sources, the unit automatically switches to the next available power supply, thus maintaining system uptime.
- It is ideal for critical applications where uninterrupted power supply is necessary to ensure continuous system operation and prevent downtime.
