Description
SDCS-CON-4 ABB DC Speed Controller Control Board
Product Dimensions:
The SDCS-CON-4 is a high-performance, microprocessor-based control board. It serves as the central processing unit (CPU/Control Board) within the ABB industrial DC drive family, notably the DCS800. Its primary function is to provide precise speed, torque, and position control for DC motors by managing the drive’s power section (thyristor bridge) and handling all internal and external communication and I/O.

-
System Integration: It is the standard control board across the entire DCS800 power range (from 9 kW to 5 MW), ensuring uniformity and ease of maintenance across a fleet of drives.
-
Flexible Communication: Supports a wide array of industrial communication protocols via optional boards, making integration into diverse automation systems seamless.
-
Robust and Reliable: Built with a multi-layer PCB structure and designed to meet stringent industrial standards for high durability and minimal downtime.
-
Advanced Diagnostics: Includes features like firmware storage (FlashPROM), watchdog functionality, and voltage monitoring to ensure stable operation and aid in troubleshooting.
-
User-Friendly Design: Designed as a field-replaceable, plug-in card for quick installation and maintenance.
⚠️ Important Considerations (Notes)
-
System Dependency: The SDCS-CON-4 is an integral part of the ABB DCS800 (or other compatible series) DC drive and cannot function as a standalone speed controller. It requires the power, firing, and I/O boards of the drive system (like SDCS-PIN-4 or SDCS-POW-1).
-
External I/O: While the SDCS-CON-4 has built-in I/O, an additional I/O board (like the SDCS-IOB-2) is often used for expanded or dedicated terminal connections. When an I/O board is used, certain terminals on the CON-4 board itself may become inactive.
-
Firmware Management: The control board stores the drive’s firmware and parameters in FlashPROM. Proper backup and handling of parameter settings are essential before replacement or upgrade.
-
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD): As a sensitive electronic PCB, proper ESD handling procedures (use of wrist straps, anti-static mats) must be followed during installation or removal.
🏭 Product Applications
The ABB SDCS-CON-4 is ideal for demanding industrial applications requiring precise and reliable control of DC motors.
-
Industrial Motor Control: General speed, torque, and position control of DC motors in manufacturing environments.
-
Extruders and Mixers: Maintaining constant torque and speed in plastic, rubber, and chemical processing.
-
Metal Industry: Used in rolling mills, coilers, and winders for precise tension and speed control.
-
