ABB 3BHL000986P7001

Product introduction

The 3BHL000986P7001 is a high-reliability power supply module from ABB, specifically engineered to provide stable DC power to IRC5 industrial robot controllers. As a critical component in robotic automation systems, it converts 3-phase AC input (380-480 V) into regulated 24 V DC (for motor drives and actuators) and 5 V DC (for control electronics), ensuring consistent operation of all robot subsystems.

This module combines efficient power conversion with robust protection features, making it ideal for the demanding environments of automotive factories, electronics plants, and logistics centers. The 3BHL000986P7001 delivers reliable performance even during voltage fluctuations or transient loads—common in industrial settings—preventing unexpected robot shutdowns that disrupt production. Its compatibility with ABB’s IRC5 controller and redundant power configurations (with 3BHL000987P7002) ensures it integrates seamlessly into existing robotic cells, enhancing system uptime and operational efficiency.

Core advantages and technical highlights

Stable power delivery

The 3BHL000986P7001 maintains output voltage regulation within ±2% (24 V DC) even with load variations from 10% to 100%. In an automotive welding cell, this stability ensures robot weld guns receive consistent power, preventing voltage drops that could cause uneven welds or motor stalling. The module’s low ripple (<50 mV) also protects sensitive control electronics in the IRC5 controller from electrical noise, ensuring precise motion control.

Industrial-grade protection

Equipped with multi-layer protection (overcurrent, overvoltage, overtemperature), the 3BHL000986P7001 safeguards both the robot system and itself during faults. For example, if a short circuit occurs in a robot’s end-effector wiring, the module immediately shuts down the 24 V output, preventing damage to motors or control boards. It automatically restarts once the fault is cleared, minimizing production downtime compared to fuses that require manual replacement.

Redundancy readiness

Designed to work in 1+1 redundant configurations with 3BHL000987P7002, the 3BHL000986P7001 ensures uninterrupted power in mission-critical applications. In a semiconductor packaging line where robot downtime costs $5,000 per minute, this redundancy allows one module to take over instantly if the other fails—eliminating production losses and protecting expensive wafers from damage during unexpected shutdowns.

Typical application scenarios

In an automotive body shop, the 3BHL000986P7001 powers an IRC5 controller managing an IRB 6700 welding robot. It converts the shop’s 400 V 3-phase AC supply into stable 24 V DC for the robot’s servo drives, which position the weld gun with ±0.1 mm accuracy. The 5 V DC output energizes the controller’s logic circuits, including sensors that monitor weld current and torch position.

During peak production, when the robot performs 120 welds per minute, the module handles transient current spikes from the servo motors without voltage sag. Its overtemperature protection prevents overheating in the warm shop environment (up to 45°C), while short circuit protection safeguards against accidental wire damage from metal debris—critical for maintaining the 99.9% uptime required for just-in-time manufacturing.

In a food packaging plant, the 3BHL000986P7001 supplies power to an IRC5 controller operating a delta robot that picks and places snacks into boxes. Its ability to tolerate voltage fluctuations (±10% of input) ensures consistent performance even when other plant equipment (like refrigeration units) causes electrical grid variations. The module’s compact design fits into the robot’s control cabinet, saving space in the hygienic production area.

Installation, commissioning and maintenance instructions

Installation preparation: Mount the 3BHL000986P7001 on a clean, grounded metal panel in the IRC5 controller cabinet, ensuring 100 mm clearance for ventilation. Use copper conductors (1.5 mm² for AC input, 0.75 mm² for DC outputs) with proper crimp terminals. Connect 3-phase AC input to L1/L2/L3 terminals, neutral to N, and ground to PE. Verify input voltage matches 380-480 V AC before powering on. For redundant setups, install 3BHL000987P7002 in parallel and connect the synchronization cable.

Maintenance suggestions: Inspect the 3BHL000986P7001 quarterly for dust accumulation—clean with compressed air (low pressure) to prevent overheating. Check DC output voltages monthly using a multimeter (24 V ±0.5 V, 5 V ±0.25 V). If the module shuts down due to overtemperature, check cabinet cooling fans and ambient temperature. Replace fuses only with ABB-specified ratings (5 A for input). If outputs are unstable or absent, test with PSU800 before replacing—use only ABB-approved modules to maintain controller compatibility.
