SAMIGS+SNAT7640 ABB Control Interface Card Unit
Description
The SAMIGS+SNAT7640 ABB Control Interface Card Unit, with alternate model number 3BSE003195R1, is an industrial control main controller board designed for automated systems. It integrates SAMI GS control interface and display functions, enabling seamless communication between ABB drives and AC 800M controllers via the specialized DriveBus protocol. This protocol is optimized for segmented drive applications, specifically tailored for ABB rolling mill drive systems and ABB paper machine control systems. The unit supports DriveBus hot swap for uninterrupted operation, and can connect up to 24 ABB drives per card, with a maximum of two cards connectable to a single AC 800M controller. For setups with multiple drives, a connection unit (ndb) is required to build a logical bus using a physical star topology. Powered via the CEX bus by the processor unit, the card eliminates the need for additional external power sources, streamlining installation and reducing system complexity. As a dedicated industrial control component, it delivers reliable, high-performance interface and control capabilities for heavy-duty automated production environments.
