ABB UFC719AE01 (3BHB000272R0001) – Control Board for ABB Medium-Voltage Drives

The ABB UFC719AE01, order code 3BHB000272R0001, is a factory-grade control board from ABB’s UFC series, commonly used in medium-voltage drive systems such as ACS6000 and, in some cases, ACS5000. It serves as a plug-in control module within the drive’s control rack, supporting coordination and communication between converter sections and the system control. From my experience, it’s the kind of board maintenance teams keep on the shelf because it restores uptime fast without touching the power stack or cabling.

Our Order Process & Guarantees

• Warranty: 365 days
• Lead time: 1 week if in stock; no more than 1 month at the latest
• Payment: 50% advance payment; full payment before delivery
• Express options: FedEx, UPS, DHL
• Testing: Each board is inspected prior to shipment; static-protective packaging used

Key Features

• Drive-compatible control board: Designed for ABB medium-voltage drive control racks (commonly ACS6000; compatibility should be matched by drive type code).
• Backplane-powered: No separate PSU needed; the board is supplied by the drive’s internal low-voltage bus, which simplifies replacement.
• High-reliability signaling: Interfaces typically include backplane communication plus fiber-optic or isolated I/O channels for safe, noise-immune control inside MV cabinets.
• Service-friendly design: Plug-in form factor with keyed connectors; removal and insertion typically takes minutes during planned downtime.
• Status indication: On-board indicators help technicians verify board health and communication at a glance.

Technical Specifications

Application Fields

You’ll typically find the UFC719AE01 in medium-voltage VSD installations where uptime and coordinated converter control matter:

• Metals rolling mills and process lines (continuous duty, high dynamic performance)
• Cement kilns, mills, and large fans
• Oil & gas compressors and pumps (onshore and offshore)
• Mining hoists and conveyors
• Marine propulsion and large test benches

One thing I appreciate is how these boards minimize reengineering—swap, verify firmware match, run functional checks, and you’re back in production in many cases within the same shift.

Advantages & Value

• Reliability: Genuine-spec board designed for ABB MV environments where electrical noise and temperature can be demanding.
• Compatibility: Fits the UFC control rack architecture; avoids undocumented adapters or risky wiring changes.
• Lower downtime cost: Quick replacement reduces production losses vs. rebuilding a full converter section.
• Supportability: Traceable part code (3BHB000272R0001) simplifies lifecycle tracking and spare parts planning.

A maintenance supervisor told us their ACS6000 tripped intermittently under load; replacing UFC719AE01 stabilized the converter and cleared nuisance trips—no parameter changes needed, just careful seating and a clean backplane.

Installation & Maintenance

• Cabinet standards: Install in the designated ABB control rack slot; ensure the cabinet meets IP rating and ventilation guidelines for MV drives.
• ESD and handling: Use ESD protection; isolate control power and wait for discharge before removal or insertion.
• Wiring / seating: Inspect edge connectors and fiber links; re-seat firmly until latches engage; avoid fiber bend radius violations.
• Firmware / parameters: Match board revision and firmware with your drive type code; back up parameters before swap where applicable.
• Routine checks: Periodically clean dust with dry, oil-free air; verify LED indicators; review diagnostic logs for communication errors.

Quality & Certifications

• Manufactured under ISO 9001 quality systems (ABB production)
• RoHS-compliant materials in most cases for this series
• CE/UL conformity applies at the complete drive system level
• Warranty: 12 months (365 days) as per our supply terms
