ABB TU841 (3BSE020848R1) S800 I/O Module Termination Unit
The TU841 (Part Number 3BSE020848R1) is a Module Termination Unit (MTU) engineered by ABB for the S800 I/O system within the System 800xA automation platform. It is designed to bridge redundant Optical ModuleBus modems, such as the TB840 and TB840A, with non-redundant I/O modules, enabling fault-tolerant data transmission in distributed control architectures.
System Interconnection and Addressing
The unit provides physical connection points for a primary power supply, one electrical ModuleBus, and dual optical modems to maintain redundant communication pathways. Cluster addressing is configured via an integrated rotary switch supporting positions 1 through 7, allowing precise network node identification within the control framework.
Mechanical Keying and Installation
To prevent incorrect module insertion during maintenance or commissioning, the TU841 incorporates a mechanical keying system using four keys across six available positions, yielding 36 unique keying configurations. Housed in a standard modular enclosure designed for DIN rail mounting, the unit measures 160 mm x 160 mm x 120 mm with a net weight of 0.8 kg.
