Introduction to ABB VBX01BA
VBX01BA Product Overview
The ABB VBX01BA is a high-precision digital signal processing module tailored for ABB’s Symphony Plus distributed control system (DCS), specializing in reliable acquisition and preprocessing of industrial digital signals. As a critical interface between field digital sensors/actuators and the central DCS, it features 32 configurable digital I/O channels, supporting both PNP and NPN signal types to adapt to diverse on-site equipment. Unlike conventional signal modules, it integrates edge computing capabilities, enabling real-time logic judgment (such as pulse counting, state transition detection) at the field level, which reduces data transmission pressure to the central controller. Widely applied in steel rolling mills, water treatment plants, and pharmaceutical production lines, it ensures accurate capture of equipment on/off status, valve position signals, and sensor pulse data.
