The unit converts digital control frames into +\/-10 VDC voltage or +\/-20 mA current outputs using dedicated hardware terminal sets. Integrated digital feed-back circuitry continuously reads back output signals to verify D\/A converter execution, while onboard diagnostics monitor process voltage thresholds and open-circuit conditions directly over the ModuleBus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAO820\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eArticle Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3BSE008546R1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSweden\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.3 kg (0.66 lbs)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45 mm x 119 mm x 102 mm (1.77 in x 4.68 in x 4.01 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 deg C to +55 deg C (+32 deg F to +131 deg F)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e+5 V ModuleBus: 100 mA; +24 V ModuleBus: 260 mA (Typ. 6 W)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNumber of Channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 bipolar analog channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Signal Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-20 mA to +20 mA, 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, -10 V to +10 V, 0-10 V, 2-10 V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Load\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLess than or equal to 550 Ohm (current mode), Greater than or equal to 5 kOhm (voltage mode)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSignal Isolation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel-to-channel and channel-to-common individual galvanic isolation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12-bit including sign\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRise Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLess than 0.7 ms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUpdate Cycle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLess than or equal to 1.5 ms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRated Insulation Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnclosure Protection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20 (IEC 60529)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHazardous Location Class\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eATEX Zone 2, cULus Class 1 Div 2 \/ Zone 2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDeterministic ModuleBus Execution and Channel Isolation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AO820 processes backplane data using deterministic backplane bus communication velocity to deliver updating cycle latencies within 1.5 ms across all four output drivers. Individual channel-to-channel galvanic isolation prevents ground loops and cross-talk from corrupting bipolar voltage or current waveforms. Onboard firmware flash compatibility enables continuous hardware diagnostics, continuously matching D\/A converter drive values against actual field execution levels to verify loop integrity before sending confirmation frames to the cluster controller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How do you select between voltage and current modes on the AO820 module?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Software parameters define the channel signal type inside System 800xA, while field conductors must connect to the corresponding voltage or current physical terminals designated on the S800 terminal baseplate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What diagnostic process detects an open-circuit fault during current mode operation?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Internal supervisory circuits continuously measure loop compliance and output read-back values; if field loop integrity drops or process power fails, the module generates a channel error signal over the ModuleBus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can an AO820 module be replaced while the remaining S800 I\/O cluster remains powered?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes. The AO820 supports live hot-swapping on an active ModuleBus baseplate, provided field power isolation procedures match local safety practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMount the S800 baseplate firmly onto an unpainted 35 mm DIN rail, making sure that the grounding clip creates solid metal-to-metal contact with the panel backplate. Align the upper and lower guide slots of the AO820 module with the terminal block connectors, pushing firmly until the retaining latches click closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWire field devices to the correct physical terminal pins based on whether the channel is configured for voltage or current operation. Route all analog wiring through separate grounded wireways away from AC power lines or high-frequency motor drives. Clamp double-shielded twisted-pair cables directly to the grounding bar to maximize noise immunity. Leave a minimum 50 mm convective cooling space around the module top and bottom vents to maintain reliable operation up to +55 deg C.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ABB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53004870713656,"sku":"AO820 3BSE008546R1","price":188.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/1616\/3896\/files\/642_c1618981-6386-4032-83af-fffa0ba7c01f.jpg?v=1790040709","url":"https:\/\/www.automodulexpert.com\/products\/ao820-3bse008546r1-abb-s800-io-bipolar-analog-output-module","provider":"AutoModuleXpert Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
