ABB PP836A (3BSE042237R2) 6.5-inch Color TFT Touch Operator Panel for System 800xA & AC800M DCS

Product Description

PP836A with order code 3BSE042237R2 belongs to ABB Panel 800 HMI series, a compact industrial touchscreen operator panel designed for ABB System 800xA distributed control system 

and AC800M process controllers, manufactured in Switzerland.

Equipped with a 6.5-inch high-brightness TFT color display and integrated physical shortcut function keys, it serves as local and central control room human-machine interface to realize real-time 

process variable monitoring, graphic page browsing, trend curve viewing, alarm acknowledge, parameter setpoint adjustment and equipment manual operation.

The unit adopts low-power ARM9 industrial processor with abundant built-in memory resources, supporting multi-language operation interface, recipe storage and historical event logging. 

It integrates dual Ethernet, RS485 and USB communication ports, compatible with Modbus TCP/RTU, Profibus DP and ABB native control network protocols, enabling seamless data interaction 

with AC800M controllers, remote field instruments and third-party PLC devices.

Front panel achieves IP66 dustproof and waterproof protection, rear housing IP20 for cabinet internal installation. Conformal coated circuit board and wide temperature hardware design support 

long-term 24/7 continuous operation in power plants, refineries, chemical factories and water treatment control rooms. It is a mainstream replacement spare for on-site operation and monitoring 

of ABB DCS systems.
