ABB LDGRB-01 3BSE013177R1 Gray Code Encoder Interface Module

ABB LDGRB-01 3BSE013177R1 is an absolute gray-code encoder interface module for ABB S800 I/O and UNITROL excitation control system. It reads position signals from absolute encoders and converts gray code data into digital values, transmitting position information to the controller via high-speed DDCS fiber bus.

This module adopts 24VDC field power supply, supports gray code parallel/serial encoder input, with built-in channel diagnosis and status LED indicators. It uses rack slot installation and can realize high-precision rotor position feedback for generator excitation systems. Widely used as spare parts for power plant generator excitation cabinets and rotating machinery monitoring systems.
