ABB Modulebus and Redundant I/O Interface

The TU840 terminates and distributes electrical connections associated with a 1+1 TB840 redundant I/O arrangement. The unit provides a dedicated power supply connector and accepts the TB807 Modulebus terminator.

Furthermore, the specified Modulebus current distribution reaches 1.5 A at 5 V and 1.5 A at 24 V. Therefore, installation planning should keep the connected module load within these stated distribution limits.

The mechanical keying system provides 36 different combinations. This feature controls physical module positioning and helps prevent incompatible module or termination-unit combinations during installation.

Field Installation Guidelines

1. Verify the complete part number TU840 3BSE020846R1 before installation.
2. Confirm that the termination unit matches the intended 1+1 TB840 redundant configuration.
3. Install the unit in the specified vertical or horizontal orientation.
4. Connect the 24 VDC power input with correct polarity and suitable industrial wiring practices.
5. Keep the connected Modulebus load within the specified 5 V and 24 V current distribution limits.
6. Install the TB807 Modulebus terminator at the designated interface.
7. Use the mechanical keying arrangement to prevent an incorrect module combination.
8. Route power and communication wiring to minimize unnecessary coupling with high-current or high-noise conductors.
9. Verify terminal tightness and connector seating before energizing the assembly.
10. Confirm that the installation environment remains within the specified temperature and humidity limits.
