Description
ABB UAD149A0011 (3BHE014135R0011) – Control/Interface Board for ABB Drive & Excitation Systems


The ABB UAD149A0011, identified by spare part number 3BHE014135R0011, is a board-level module used inside ABB industrial drive and excitation system cabinets. From my experience, it’s typically specified as a direct replacement board to restore system operation and keep legacy lines running without a redesign. You might notice that most requests for this item come from maintenance teams on medium-voltage drives, generator excitation packages, or retrofit projects where uptime matters more than anything else.

Application Fields
This board is commonly used in ABB industrial drive trains and generator excitation cabinets across:
- Power generation (excitation systems for synchronous generators)
- Metals and mining (mill drives, conveyor drives)
- Cement and minerals processing (kilns, fans, feeders)
- Oil & gas and petrochem (compressors, pumps)
- Pulp & paper and water utilities where ABB drive platforms are standard
One thing I appreciate is how these ABB board-level spares let maintenance teams swap, test, and get back to production in a single shift—especially when the rest of the system is healthy.
Advantages & Value
- Reliability – Built for continuous duty inside industrial cabinets; proven field track record in many cases.
- Compatibility – Form-fit-function alignment with existing ABB racks reduces engineering risk.
- Cost control – Direct replacement avoids unplanned system upgrades and lengthy re-qualification.
- Supportability – Clear part code (UAD149A0011 / 3BHE014135R0011) simplifies troubleshooting and parts planning.
“We replaced the failed board, ran a short functional test, and had the line back within the afternoon.” — Feedback from a steel plant maintenance supervisor
Installation & Maintenance
- Cabinet environment – Install in a clean, ventilated control cabinet (typical 0…+55 °C, non‑condensing). Keep airflow unobstructed.
- ESD safety – Use wrist straps, antistatic mats, and handle by edges. Disconnect control power before insertion/removal.
- Wiring & seating – Inspect backplane connectors; ensure the board is fully seated and latched per the rack design.
- Commissioning – Load or verify the correct parameters/firmware as required by the host system. Follow ABB service procedures.
- Routine care – Periodically check for dust; light, dry air cleaning is usually sufficient. Review system event logs after any trip.
Quality & Certifications
- Manufactured under ABB’s quality systems (ISO 9001 typical for production sites)
- CE conformity is applicable at the system level; board is intended for installation by qualified personnel
- RoHS alignment depends on production year/revision; many units comply
- Warranty: 365 days from delivery
If you’re matching this to an installed base, sharing the cabinet type or the drive/excitation system ID usually lets us confirm compatibility fast. Lead-time is typically short for stocked units, and we can arrange expedited shipping via FedEx, UPS, or DHL when needed.
