ABB UAC318AE (HIEE300744R0001) – Plug-in Controller/communication Module for Advant/Master DCS Upkeep and Spares

• Warranty: 365 days

• Delivery time: 1 week for in‑stock; no more than one month at the latest

• Payment: 50% advance payment; full payment prior to delivery

• Express delivery: FedEx, UPS, DHL

• Genuine ABB spare (HIEE300744R0001) – Ensures firmware and backplane compatibility within existing Advant/Master DCS nodes.

• Backplane‑powered, plug‑in design – No field power terminals on the module; simplifies installation and swap‑outs.

• Onboard status LEDs and diagnostics – Speeds up fault isolation during commissioning or troubleshooting.

• Redundancy support – In many cases used in paired, redundant architectures where the controller design supports it.

• Form‑fit replacement – Minimizes re‑wiring and engineering changes, typically avoiding software re‑validation.

• Tested spares available – Functional test reports can be provided on request to support FAT/SAT documentation.

Typically used for sustaining ABB Advant/Master DCS assets in oil & gas, petrochemicals, power generation, pulp & paper, metals, marine, and water/wastewater. Common scenarios include controller node repairs, sparing for redundancy, and planned life‑cycle extensions where a full platform migration is not yet scheduled.

• Fast swap during short maintenance windows

• Recovering a controller after communication or logic faults

• Building a like‑for‑like spare kit for critical assets

• Reliability – ABB hardware with a strong track record in 24/7 process environments.

• Compatibility – Form‑fit with existing Advant/Master racks, typically avoiding software re‑engineering.

• Cost savings – Extends life of installed base; reduces risk and cost of early migration.

• Support – We can assist with pre‑shipment testing and basic installation guidance to shorten site time.

• Cabinet environment – Keep within rated temperature; ensure ventilation and clean, dry air.

• Wiring & grounding – The module is backplane‑powered; verify system grounding and shield terminations at the rack level.

• ESD precautions – Use wrist straps and antistatic packaging during handling and insertion.

• Slotting – Insert into the designated rack position only; seat fully and secure front screws evenly.

• Routine checks – Visual inspection for dust buildup, verify status LEDs, and backplane contacts kept clean.

• Firmware/config – Where applicable, load/verify configuration via the engineering station; avoid power cycling during downloads.

• Manufactured by ABB in accordance with ISO 9001 quality systems

• CE compliant; UL recognition common for this product class

• RoHS conformity where applicable to specific revisions

• Supplier warranty: 12 months (365 days)
