ABB Bailey IMSED01 Sequence of Events Digital Input Module

Description

The ABB IMSED01 is a specialized digital input module engineered for high-speed discrete signal monitoring within the Bailey INFI 90 and Symphony Plus distributed control systems. Unlike standard digital input cards, the IMSED01 is specifically designed for Sequence of Events (SOE) applications, where the exact timing of status changes is critical. It captures and timestamps state transitions from field devices such as circuit breakers, protective relays, and emergency stop switches with millisecond precision. By interfacing with a master time-keeper module, the IMSED01 ensures that rapid-fire event sequences are accurately recorded for diagnostic analysis and fault reconstruction in power generation and mission-critical industrial processes.
