Description

Application Scenarios

An automotive parts manufacturer was upgrading their production line and encountered communication failures between the central Siemens S7 PLC and several ABB ACS800 drives.

Upon inspection,it was found that the HAB8101-11/08A PROFIBUS modules inside the drives had failed due to voltage surges.

By replacing the faulty modules with tested units and reconfiguring the PROFIBUS addresses:

Communication was restored across all drives

Data polling from the SCADA system improved significantly

Downtime was minimized with minimal disruption to production

Result:The facility maintained smooth operation without requiring full drive replacements—highlighting the critical role of the HAB8101-11/08A in maintaining industrial communication integrity.

Application Cases and Industry Value

Case Study:Retrofit of Paper Mill Line

A paper mill was modernizing its control system and wanted to integrate legacy ABB ACS800 drives into a new Siemens SIMATIC S7 PLC-based network.

However,several drives were missing or had failed HAB8101-11/08A modules.

After sourcing refurbished and tested modules and installing them:

All drives were successfully integrated into the PROFIBUS DP network

Real-time diagnostics and control were enabled

The plant avoided costly drive replacements

System uptime increased significantly

Result:The project demonstrated how the HAB8101-11/08A continues to provide value in extending the lifecycle of ABB industrial drive installations.
