Description
ABB 3BSE042243R1 – S800 I/O module spare for 800xA system expansion and upkeep
The ABB 3BSE042243R1 is supplied as a factory-equivalent module within the ABB S800 I/O family, used widely across 800xA and Symphony Plus installations. From my experience, part numbers in the 3BSE0422xx range are typically tied to S800 I/O hardware variants and like-for-like spares. That makes this unit a practical choice for minimizing downtime during brownfield replacements, adding I/O capacity on existing TU8xx/TU9xx bases, or holding critical shelf stock in continuous-process plants.
You might notice that S800 I/O’s compact form factor and backplane power scheme keep wiring clean and service windows short. In many cases, technicians can swap a slice in minutes, verify the channel status in 800xA, and bring the loop back online without disrupting neighboring modules.
Order Placement Process and Guarantees
- Warranty: 365 days from shipment (standard test-and-replace policy)
- Lead time: 1 week if in stock; no more than one month at the latest
- Payment: 50% advance; full payment prior to delivery
- Express options: FedEx, UPS, DHL
Key Features
- Native fit for ABB S800 I/O – Designed for TU8xx/TU9xx terminal bases used in 800xA/Symphony Plus systems.
- Backplane-powered – Typically receives 24 VDC via the S800 backplane; no extra field PSU in most cabinets.
- Hot-swappable practice – In many cases, modules can be replaced under power following ABB procedures to reduce downtime.
- Compact form factor – Narrow-width slice helps keep cabinet footprints small and wiring accessible.
- Industrial temperature range – Suited for typical process environments and MCC/DCS rooms.
- Lifecycle-friendly – Commonly used as a drop-in spare to keep legacy I/O islands supported without re-engineering.

| Operating Temperature | -25 to +55 °C (typical for S800 I/O modules) |
| Signal I/O Types | Module-dependent within the S800 family (AI/DI/DO/AO variants exist); 3BSE042243R1 is supplied as a like-for-like spare for its designated function |
| Communication Interfaces | S800 I/O backplane interface; controller-side connectivity via CI8xx communications modules |
| Installation Method | DIN-rail on TU8xx/TU9xx terminal base; front insertion with field wiring on the base |
Quick note from a recent retrofit: a refinery client swapped a failed S800 analog slice during a planned 30-minute window. With a like-numbered 3BSE spare, channel mapping stayed intact and loop checks were done in under 10 minutes. That’s the kind of low-friction maintenance this family is known for.

Installation & Maintenance
- Cabinet & ventilation – Mount on DIN rail with TU8xx/TU9xx bases; maintain clearance for airflow. Typical control-room conditions or conditioned panels are recommended.
- Wiring – Land field wiring on the terminal base; keep analog and digital returns separated as per ABB wiring practices. Shield and ground per channel type, especially for low-level analog.
- Power – Verify 24 VDC backplane supply and redundancy (if used) before insertion. Check load budget when adding slices.
- Hot swap – Follow ABB’s hot-insert/hot-remove procedure; confirm channel states in the 800xA faceplates after replacement.
- Routine upkeep – Inspect terminals for loosened screws, clean dust with dry air, and review diagnostics in 800xA. Firmware/parameter consistency should match controller project backups.
Quality & Certifications
- CE compliant; RoHS conformity typical for S800 I/O modules
- UL/cUL listing commonly available for S800 I/O hardware
- Manufacturer’s warranty: typically 12 months; supplied here with a 365-day coverage
- Each unit function-tested prior to dispatch; batch traceability retained
If you can share the exact installed base list or the function label on your current slice, I can confirm the precise I/O variant that maps to 3BSE042243R1 and match it one-to-one with your cabinet layout.
