ABB SDCS-FEX-4 3ADT314500R1001 module

Description

ABB SDCS-FEX-4 3ADT314500R1001 module

The ABB SDCS-FEX-4 is a specialized Field Exciter Power Hub (or field supply unit) designed for use with ABB’s DCS800 and DCS550 industrial DC drives. This module is critical for controlling the field winding of a DC motor, ensuring precise torque control and stable operation across various speed ranges.

### Technical Specifications

### Key Advantages

• Integrated Design: Seamlessly integrates with the DCS800 firmware, allowing for easy configuration and monitoring through the drive’s primary control panel.

• High Precision: Offers superior control over the motor field current, which is essential for “field weakening” applications where the motor needs to run above its base speed.

• Enhanced Safety: Includes built-in protection mechanisms against overcurrent and loss of field, preventing catastrophic motor failure.

• Space Efficient: Its slim, modular design allows for high-density installation in electrical cabinets.

### Important Considerations (Precautions)

• Voltage Matching: Always ensure the input AC voltage matches the rated field voltage of the motor to prevent insulation breakdown.

• Inductive Loads: Since a motor field is highly inductive, never disconnect the DC output while the unit is energized, as this can cause massive voltage spikes (Back EMF).

• Heat Dissipation: Ensure adequate clearance around the module. Excessive heat can reduce the lifespan of the internal power electronics.

• Firmware Compatibility: Verify that the DCS800 firmware version supports the FEX-4 module features before installation.

### Typical Applications

The SDCS-FEX-4 is used wherever high-performance DC motor control is required:

• Metals Industry: Rolling mills and coilers where constant torque and tension control are vital.

• Mining: Large mine hoists and conveyors.

• Pulp & Paper: Sectional drives for paper machines requiring precise speed synchronization.

• Cranes & Hoists: Providing the necessary field strength for heavy lifting operations.

### Product Architecture

The SDCS-FEX-4 acts as the interface between the drive’s control board and the motor’s field windings. It converts the AC supply into a controlled DC current based on signals from the drive’s microprocessor.
