III. Communication Architecture: The High-Speed Nerve of the Fiber Optic
Bus
The 3BHT300026R1 adopts ABB's signature Modular Bus fiber optic bus
architecture, which is its core advantage distinguishing it from ordinary analog
modules.
The module is equipped with 10... Mbit transmitter/receiver, supporting two
fiber optic topologies:
Simple Configuration (Ring): Fiber optic module bus nodes are connected in
a ring, suitable for small to medium-sized systems;
Full-Duplex Configuration (Linear): Nodes are connected in a row, suitable
for large-scale distributed systems.
Through the TB842 communication interface module, the 3BHT300026R1 can
seamlessly interface with the following devices:
Connection Target Interface Path
CI801TB842 → TB806 → CI801
CI840/CI840ATTB842 → TU847 → CI840/CI840A
S800 I/O Cluster TB842 → TU846 → TB806/TB846
Both Plastic Fiber (POF) and Hard Silicon Fiber (HCS) are compatible,
providing great flexibility for system integration.
IV. Module Redundancy and Hot-Swapping: Dual Guarantee of System
Reliability
The 3BHT300026R1 inherits ABB's... The ABB I/O module family inherits a
strong gene—support for module redundancy and hot-swapping. Just like the design
philosophy demonstrated by the ABB DO620 (3BHT300009R1) digital output module,
this analog module also supports online replacement, eliminating the need for
system power interruption during maintenance and maximizing the guarantee of
24/7 continuous operation in industrial environments.

Its fiber optic communication architecture uses the TB842 fiber optic
connector, supporting both simple ring and full-duplex configurations:
Simple configuration: Fiber optic module bus nodes are connected in a ring,
so a failure in one node does not affect the remaining nodes;
Full-duplex configuration: Nodes are connected in a row, suitable for
high-bandwidth applications.
This design is consistent with ABB's... The 3BHT300032R1 analog input
module inherits the same communication architecture, ensuring stable operation
in complex network topologies.
V. Application Scenarios: Covering the Entire Industry from Power to
Chemicals
Process Industries
In petrochemical and natural gas processing scenarios, the 32-channel
analog module can simultaneously acquire key parameters such as reactor
temperature, pipeline pressure, and flow meter signals, allowing one module to
replace multiple single-channel modules, significantly saving cabinet space and
cabling costs.
Power Systems
In substation automation, the 32 analog inputs can simultaneously monitor
the voltage, current, and power factor of multiple circuits. Combined with ABB's
Control Builder engineering software, it enables complete control logic design
under the IEC 61131-3 standard.
Metallurgy and Water Treatment
High temperature, high humidity, and strong electromagnetic
interference—these harsh environments are the domain of the 3BHT300026R1. Its
ATEX Zone 2 explosion-proof certification and 500V... DC channel isolation
design ensures stable operation even in hazardous areas and environments with
strong interference.
VI. Synergistic Operation with Other Modules
In practical engineering, the 3BHT300026R1 is often deployed in synergy
with the following modules:
Synergistic Module Model & Value
Digital Input DI621 (3BHT300012R1): 16 digital inputs + 32 analog inputs =
Complete signal acquisition
Digital Output DO620 (3BHT300009R1): 32 AI inputs + 32 DO inputs = Perfect
pairing for closed-loop control
Analog Output AO650 (3BHT300051R1): 32 AI inputs + multiple AO inputs =
Complete analog signal link

Taking the DI621 as an example, its 16 digital inputs combined with the
3BHT300026R1's 32 analog inputs can construct a 48-channel hybrid I/O station,
working in conjunction with the ABB 800xA... The DCS system meets the needs of
most medium-sized control applications.
VII. Engineering Configuration: Supported by Control Builder and Automation
Builder
Seamless Integration with ABB Control Builder
