Description
Product Overview
The ABB AM811F is a mission-critical RAM data retention battery module designed for ABB’s AC800F distributed control system (DCS). Engineered to safeguard critical configuration data during power outages or system maintenance, this module ensures seamless continuity in industrial automation environments. As part of the AC800F series, the ABB AM811F provides reliable backup power for the controller’s volatile memory, preventing data loss and minimizing downtime in applications such as process control, energy management, and manufacturing .
Key to its functionality is the ABB AM811F’s ability to retain program logic, historical data, and configuration settings when the AC800F controller is powered off or during Ethernet module replacement. It supports hot-swap capabilities, allowing maintenance without disrupting system operation. The module’s IP20-rated housing and -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range ensure resilience in harsh industrial conditions, while its compact DIN rail-mount design (110 mm width) optimizes space in control cabinets .
The ABB AM811F interfaces directly with PM802F/PM803F central processing units and SA811F power supply modules, forming a redundant architecture for fault-tolerant systems. Its low self-discharge rate ensures long-term data retention (up to 1 year without recharge), reducing the need for frequent battery replacements. Real-time status LEDs provide instant feedback on battery health and power status, enabling proactive maintenance .
