Description
Product Overview
The ABB IMDSM04 is a high-performance pulse input slave module engineered for industrial automation systems, particularly within ABB’s Bailey Infi 90 distributed control system (DCS) and Symphony Plus platforms. As a critical component of these systems, the ABB IMDSM04 provides precise acquisition and processing of pulse signals from field devices, making it ideal for applications requiring frequency measurement, pulse-width analysis, or totalization in industries such as oil & gas, power generation, and manufacturing .
Featuring 8 isolated pulse input channels, the ABB IMDSM04 supports a wide voltage range (5–24 V DC) and integrates seamlessly with Infi 90 controllers via the system’s proprietary communication protocol, enabling real-time data exchange and remote monitoring. Each channel can be configured for three operating modes: frequency measurement, period measurement, or totalization, offering flexibility for diverse applications like flow metering, encoder feedback, and turbine speed monitoring .
Engineered for harsh industrial environments, the ABB IMDSM04 operates within a -20°C to +60°C temperature range and withstands humidity levels up to 95% non-condensing. Its IP20-rated enclosure protects against dust and solid particles, while electromagnetic interference (EMI) resistance ensures stable performance in noisy factory settings. The module also supports diagnostic feedback for each channel, providing actionable insights into signal integrity and device health .
