ABB TU810V1 system 800xA hardware selector

Product Overview and Positioning

TU810/TU810V1 is a 16 channel 50V compact module terminal unit (MTU) designed specifically for ABB System 800xA automation systems, and is a key component of the S800 I/O system. As a passive interface unit, its core function is to achieve electrical connection between field wiring and I/O modules, while carrying the transmission and distribution of Module Bus signals. This MTU adopts a modular design, supports mechanical keying configuration, ensures compatibility with different types of I/O modules, and is suitable for signal access and system expansion in industrial automation scenarios.

Core functions and technical features

Module Bus Management

As the physical carrier of the Modulus Bus, TU810V1 is responsible for distributing bus signals to connected I/O modules and the next level MTU, forming a chain topology structure.

By shifting the output position signal to generate I/O module addresses, automatic addressing is achieved, simplifying the system configuration process.

Mechanical key control configuration system

Equipped with two sets of six position mechanical keys, compatible with the full range of S800 I/O modules such as AI810, AO810, DI810, DO810, etc. through different combinations (a total of 36 configurations).

Keying is only for mechanical positioning and does not affect electrical functions, but it can effectively prevent module misconnection and improve installation reliability.
