ABB PL810 PROFIBUS DP/PA Power Link Module with 24V DC Supply

Description:

The ABB PL810​ (Order No. 3BDH000311R0101) is a Power Link Module​ designed specifically for the LD 800P Linking Device​ system. It acts as a bridge between the high-speed PROFIBUS DP​ network (via a head station) and the intrinsically safe PROFIBUS PA​ field segment. Its core function is to provide 24V DC power​ and 31.25 kbit/s communication​ to field instruments on the PA bus, supporting up to 32 devices per segment. The module is plug-and-play, requiring no software configuration, and is certified for use in Zone 2​ hazardous areas, making it a critical component for process automation in chemical and oil & gas industries.

Description

 

Application Scenarios:

In a large chemical plant in Taiyuan, Shanxi, the existing DCS system needed to integrate dozens of new PROFIBUS PA​ pressure and temperature transmitters located in a classified hazardous area (Zone 2). The control cabinet was already equipped with an ABB HS 820 Head Station​ for DP connectivity. By installing the ABB PL810​ module alongside the head station to form an LD 800P​ device, engineers were able to extend the network without additional complex wiring. The PL810 supplied stable 24V power directly over the PA bus, eliminating the need for separate power supplies in the field. This setup reduced installation costs by 25% and provided seamless diagnostic data from the field devices back to the ABB AC 800M controller.
