Description

Product Introduction

1SFB536068D1001 is the core CPU main control printed circuit board exclusively matched for ABB PST and PSTB series low voltage soft starters, manufactured in Switzerland as original factory core spare part. It is embedded inside softstarter cabinet as central logic control unit to realize full motor soft start algorithm operation, parameter storage, signal collection and fault diagnosis. Original mass production of corresponding softstarter host has been discontinued, this control board is mainly used for field equipment maintenance replacement and spare part stocking of aging PST/PSTB soft starter control system.

Model Definition

1SFB is fixed part number prefix of ABB low voltage soft starter internal circuit board spare parts coding rule. 536068 stands for base hardware specification code of PST/PSTB general main control board. D represents design version code of circuit layout. Suffix 1001 is factory standard production revision, defining original default hardware configuration and internal program firmware version, variant suffix codes only modify partial peripheral component layout without changing core control logic and external interface definition.

Technical Specifications

Working auxiliary power supply supports AC100V~250V universal input taken from softstarter internal auxiliary power loop. Rated maximum power consumption is less than 12W, onboard integrated nonvolatile flash memory for saving user set operation parameters and historical fault records without extra backup battery. Operating ambient temperature ranges from -20℃ to +60℃, storage temperature -40℃~+85℃, applicable working humidity 5%~95% non-condensing environment. The circuit board conforms to CE, UL and RoHS industrial certification standards, overall dimension 158mm×92mm×22mm, net weight about 190g. It completes real-time sampling of three-phase main loop voltage and current signal of softstarter via onboard dedicated sampling circuit.

Interface and Communication Configuration

Rear side is equipped with multi-group pin-type gold-plated plug connectors to connect with softstarter power drive board, current transformer wiring and internal auxiliary power terminal inside host cabinet. One dedicated proprietary communication port reserved for matching PSTEK external remote operation keypad via special connecting cable, adopting private serial communication protocol between mainboard and keypad. Onboard standard RS485 communication interface supports Modbus RTU fieldbus protocol for upper PLC or DCS system remote communication access, realizing remote parameter modification, running data reading and remote start-stop instruction transmission. No independent Ethernet port is configured on standard version.

Core Functions

Run proprietary soft start control program to complete voltage ramp start, current limiting start, soft stop and free stop logic control for three-phase asynchronous motor according to preset parameter values. Real-time collect operating current, operating voltage, thyristor temperature and internal auxiliary power status of softstarter main loop, trigger overcurrent, overvoltage, overload, phase loss and overheat protection action once abnormal threshold is exceeded and lock softstarter output while storing corresponding fault code. Transmit real-time running data and fault information to external operation panel or upper control system via communication interface, receive parameter setting and remote control command from peripheral equipment to update internal operating configuration automatically.

Application Scenarios

It is installed inside PST/PSTB series soft starters applied for fan, water pump, air compressor and belt conveyor motor control cabinet, widely deployed in municipal water supply engineering, chemical processing, metallurgical auxiliary equipment, building ventilation and sewage treatment automation projects. It serves as core control unit of motor soft start system to reduce motor starting impact current and protect power grid and mechanical load equipment from startup surge damage.

Operation and Maintenance Instructions

Cut off total incoming AC power of matched softstarter and wait more than 15 minutes for internal bus capacitor full discharge before dismounting or replacing this main control board to avoid residual voltage breakdown onboard chip components. Conduct annual routine maintenance by using dry low-pressure compressed air to clear accumulated dust on circuit board surface and terminal plug positions, inspect connector pin corrosion and loose contact regularly. When communication abnormal or frequent random protection occurs, check peripheral wiring and matching keypad first before replacing the mainboard. Prevent liquid and conductive dust from invading circuit board during daily cabinet maintenance to avoid short-circuit damage of control circuit.
