METSO+D201376

Description

The model number “METSO D201376 Module” is likely associated with ABB’s Advant OCS system (also known as Valmet Automation’s Valmet 8000 DCS system), a Distributed Control System (DCS) used in various industries like power generation, pulp and paper, and water treatment. Here’s what I can share based on the available information:

Potential Product Name and Description:

• The module is likely an ABB Advant OCS Module (or Valmet 8000 DCS Module) with the model number D201376.
• Due to the limited information and the variation across specific models, pinpointing its specific function within the DCS is challenging. However, based on the historical use of the “D” prefix in these systems, it potentially belongs to the I/O (Input/Output) module category. I/O modules handle signal exchange between the DCS controller and field devices like sensors and actuators.

Possible Functionalities:

• Digital I/O Module: Handles digital signals (on/off or high/low) from sensors (e.g., limit switches, pushbuttons) and sends digital control signals to actuators (e.g., solenoid valves, motor starters) within the process.
• Analog I/O Module (less likely): While less probable based on the historical prefix usage, it’s still a possibility. In this case, the module would convert analog signals from sensors (e.g., voltage or current readings) into digital representations for the DCS controller and vice versa for controlling analog actuators.
