ABB N897163510Q / N897163050Q / N897163100U Industrial Control Modem Module

Engineered for industrial automation environments requiring robust connectivity, this ABB modem module series enables seamless data exchange between control systems and enterprise networks. Designed to handle demanding applications in manufacturing, transportation, and medical equipment, it delivers reliable signal transmission even in electrically noisy environments.

Common applications include robotics control systems, process monitoring in chemical plants, and logistics automation. The module’s stainless steel housing with magnetic shielding makes it particularly suitable for environments with high electromagnetic interference. We frequently supply these modules for integration with ABB’s AC800M controllers and other PLC systems requiring direct enterprise connectivity. Their compatibility with Modbus and Ethernet/IP protocols simplifies integration with SCADA systems and building management solutions.

What sets this module apart is its ability to maintain signal integrity in harsh conditions – one engineer mentioned they’ve used N897163100U models in a steel mill with significant magnetic interference, achieving stable operation for over two years. The direct connectivity eliminates need for intermediate gateways, reducing system complexity. With 0.25% accuracy and 0-10V output, it provides precise data for process optimization while the IP62-rated enclosure withstands industrial dust and moisture. The wide operating temperature range (-20°C to 70°C) ensures reliability even in unconditioned spaces.
