Description
SNAT-7660: Product Overview
The ABB SNAT-7660 is a legacy industrial automation module designed exclusively for ABB’s Bailey INFI 90 (formerly Network 90) distributed control system (DCS). As a critical spare part, it supports the operational stability of INFI 90 systems, which are widely used in mission-critical applications such as power generation, water treatment, and chemical processing.
Role in Automation Systems:
The INFI 90 system is ABB’s fourth-generation DCS, known for its robustness and scalability in industrial environments. The SNAT-7660 module acts as a replacement component for worn or damaged parts in INFI 90 racks, ensuring continuous operation of the DCS. It is typically used in conjunction with other INFI 90 modules (e.g., input/output modules, communication interfaces) to maintain system integrity.
Core Functionality:
While the exact technical specifications of the SNAT-7660 are not publicly disclosed (due to its legacy status), its design aligns with ABB’s commitment to reliability in industrial automation. As a spare part for the INFI 90 system, it is engineered to meet strict quality standards, ensuring compatibility and performance parity with original components.
Platform Benefits (INFI 90 Series):
The INFI 90 system offers several key benefits:
-
Scalability: Supports expansion via additional modules, adapting to growing industrial needs.
-
Reliability: Industrial-grade components ensure 24/7 operation in harsh environments.
-
Backward Compatibility: Compatible with earlier Bailey Control Systems (e.g., Network 90), enabling phased modernization.

Core Features & Customer Value
1. Genuine ABB Quality:
As an authentic ABB spare part, the SNAT-7660 meets the same rigorous quality standards as the original components installed in the INFI 90 system. This ensures consistent performance and reliability, reducing the risk of unexpected failures.
2. Perfect Compatibility:
Designed specifically for the INFI 90 system, the SNAT-7660 guarantees seamless integration with existing DCS components. This eliminates the need for costly modifications or adjustments, saving time and resources during installation.
3. Enhanced Operational Reliability:
By having the SNAT-7660 on hand, industrial facilities can quickly replace faulty components, minimizing downtime in critical processes (e.g., power generation, water treatment). This is particularly valuable for facilities where every minute of downtime translates to significant financial losses.
4. Cost-Effective Maintenance:
Investing in genuine ABB spare parts like the SNAT-7660 reduces the total cost of ownership by extending the lifespan of the INFI 90 system. This avoids the need for premature replacements and ensures that the DCS operates at peak efficiency for years to come.
