FAQs
Q1: What is the primary function of the BC810K02?
The BC810K02 is a CEX-Bus Interconnection Unit Kit that splits the CEX-Bus communication expansion bus into independent segments. This segmentation isolates faults, preventing a single faulty communication module from bringing down the entire bus network. It also supports redundant CEX-Bus configurations for enhanced system availability .
Q2: What is the difference between BC810K01 and BC810K02?
The main difference is in the kit contents:
-
BC810K01: Includes 1 x BC810 unit, 1 x TP857 baseplate, 1 x TK851 cable
-
BC810K02: Includes 2 x BC810 units, 2 x TP857 baseplates, 1 x TK851 cable, 2 x TB850 terminators
The BC810K02 provides components for a redundant setup or for connecting two separate CEX-Bus segments.
Q3: Does the BC810K02 support hot-swap?
Yes. The BC810K02 supports hot-swap capability, allowing module replacement while the control rack remains powered on. In fully redundant systems with primary/standby CPU pairs, it enables online replacement of CPU baseplates without interrupting CEX-Bus traffic .
Q4: Which AC 800M CPUs are compatible with the BC810K02?
The BC810K02 is compatible with the following AC 800M CPU modules: PM857, PM861A, PM862, PM863, PM864A, PM865, PM866, PM866A, PM867, and PM891 .
Q5: What are typical applications for the BC810K02?
Typical applications include: power plant DCS control cabinets with redundant AC 800M controllers, petrochemical and refinery high-availability process automation systems, chemical, pulp-and-paper, and metallurgical distributed control installations, and water treatment SCADA systems requiring fault-tolerant communication.
