Description
Product Overview
The ABB TK851 is a high-performance CEX-Bus termination module designed to ensure signal integrity and stability in industrial automation systems, particularly within ABB’s 800xA distributed control system (DCS) and S800 I/O platform. As a critical component in redundant control architectures, this module terminates the CEX-Bus communication line to eliminate signal reflections, ensuring reliable data transmission between adjacent DIN rail-mounted interface units. The TK851 features a 25-pin DB25S female connector with screw fixing, enabling secure and robust connections in harsh industrial environments.
Engineered for mission-critical applications, the TK851 supports hot-swappable operation, allowing maintenance without system shutdown, and is compatible with ABB’s RCU-Link and CEX-Bus extension cables (e.g., TK850) to create seamless communication paths. Its shielded design complies with industrial standards for electromagnetic compatibility (EN 61000) and vibration resistance (IEC 60068-2-6), ensuring stable performance in electrically noisy and mechanically challenging settings. By integrating precision-molded connectors and corrosion-resistant materials, the TK851 minimizes downtime and reduces long-term maintenance costs.

Key Features and Advantages
Signal Integrity Optimization: The TK851’s 100 Ω termination resistor eliminates signal reflections, ensuring high-speed data transfer (up to 10 Mbps) over CEX-Bus without degradation. This is critical for real-time control in power generation and oil refining applications.
Rugged Industrial Design: Constructed with halogen-free, flame-retardant materials and gold-plated connectors, the TK851 resists corrosion, moisture, and extreme temperatures, making it suitable for offshore platforms and mining environments. Its compact size (55 x 16 x 50 mm) allows easy integration into confined spaces.
Seamless System Integration: Compatible with ABB’s 800xA and S800 I/O systems, the TK851 works seamlessly with modules like PM858 processors and TP830 baseplates, enabling scalable redundancy configurations. Its plug-and-play design minimizes installation time and errors.
Cost-Effective Redundancy: By terminating CEX-Bus communication paths, the TK851 eliminates the need for additional interface modules, reducing hardware costs by up to 30% in large-scale systems. Its hot-swap capability further lowers operational downtime.
Applications
The ABB TK851 excels in industries requiring reliable communication in distributed control systems:
- Power Generation: Terminates CEX-Bus connections in thermal power plants for turbine control and generator synchronization.
- Oil & Gas: Ensures stable data transmission between remote I/O units in offshore platforms and refineries.
- Manufacturing: Supports real-time monitoring of robotic arms and conveyor belts in automotive and food processing plants.
- Water Treatment: Maintains seamless communication between decentralized control units in wastewater treatment facilities.
- Mining: Provides robust signal termination for conveyor systems and crushing equipment in underground and surface mines.
By integrating with ABB’s automation platforms, the TK851 ensures mission-critical processes operate with minimal latency and maximum uptime.

Installation and Maintenance
Installation Preparation:
- Mount the TK851 on a 35 mm DIN rail adjacent to the last CEX-Bus device in the network.
- Connect the DB25S female connector to the CEX-Bus port of the interface unit, ensuring proper grounding.
- Use shielded wiring and secure cable ties to minimize electromagnetic interference.
Maintenance Recommendations:
- Monthly: Inspect connectors for corrosion or loose connections, especially in humid environments.
- Yearly: Test termination resistance using a multimeter to ensure it remains within ±5% of the rated 100 Ω. Replace the TK851 if deviation exceeds this threshold.
- Every 3 Years: Perform a full system diagnostic to verify signal quality and latency.
