Product introduction

The ABB 100472 – 012 is a sophisticated power – related module that represents ABB’s continued innovation in the field of industrial power management. As a leading global industrial company, ABB has designed this module to meet the complex power requirements of modern industrial applications.

This module serves as a crucial component in power systems, facilitating the conversion and control of electrical energy. It is engineered to interface seamlessly with other electrical components, ensuring efficient power flow within an industrial setup. Whether it’s in a manufacturing facility where stable power supply is essential for machinery operation or in a power distribution network where precise power conversion is needed, the 100472 – 012 is designed to deliver reliable performance. Its ability to handle specific voltage and current ranges, combined with multiple protection features, makes it a robust choice for industrial power management.

Core advantages and technical highlights

Precise power conversion: The ABB 100472 – 012 is capable of highly accurate power conversion, whether it’s converting direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) or vice versa. This precision is crucial in applications where the power quality requirements are stringent, such as in sensitive manufacturing equipment or in renewable energy systems. For example, in a solar power plant, the module can efficiently convert the DC power generated by solar panels into AC power suitable for grid connection, minimizing power losses and maximizing energy output.

Comprehensive protection mechanisms: Equipped with over – voltage, over – current, and thermal protection, the module ensures its own safety and the integrity of the connected electrical system. In case of sudden voltage spikes or excessive current draw, the over – voltage and over – current protection mechanisms kick in to prevent damage to the module and other components. The thermal protection monitors the module’s temperature and activates cooling measures or shuts down the module if it overheats, safeguarding against thermal runaway and ensuring long – term reliable operation.

Flexible communication option: With the optional Modbus RTU communication interface, the 100472 – 012 can be integrated into a larger industrial control network. This enables remote monitoring and control, allowing operators to access real – time data about the module’s performance, such as its input and output voltages, currents, and temperature. They can also remotely adjust the module’s operating parameters, enhancing the overall flexibility and manageability of the industrial power system.

Typical application scenarios

In industrial manufacturing plants, the ABB 100472 – 012 can be used to power and control various types of machinery. For instance, in a metal – processing factory, it can provide stable power to high – precision machining tools. The precise power conversion ensures that the motors driving these tools receive the correct voltage and frequency, resulting in accurate and high – quality machining operations. The protection features also prevent damage to the expensive machinery in case of power fluctuations.

In the energy sector, especially in distributed generation systems like wind farms or small – scale hydroelectric plants, the module plays a vital role. It can convert the variable – frequency and variable – voltage power generated by the turbines into a stable form suitable for grid connection. The communication interface allows for remote monitoring of the power conversion process, enabling operators to optimize the energy production and ensure grid – compliance.
