It directly processes binary field logic across 16 discrete input channels and 16 discrete output channels while maintaining high-speed serial feedback over an RS-485 physical interface. Operating on a nominal 24 VDC external power supply, the unit consumes 15 W under full load conditions and provides continuous signal processing within an operational envelope of -20 deg C to +60 deg C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3BHE036346R0101\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSub-Model\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXZ C825 A101\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSwitzerland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e105 x 50 x 26 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-20 deg C to +60 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCommunication Interface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRS-485\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eI\/O Channel Density\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 Input \/ 16 Output Channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBackplane Bus Communication Velocity and Density Scaling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe module leverages high-speed backplane bus communication velocity to manage real-time updates across all 32 discrete channels without introducing processing jitter. Integrated protocol engines enforce deterministic transmission over the RS-485 interface, stabilizing multi-drop network topologies under heavy I\/O density scaling. Low-latency internal firmware flash compatibility ensures firmware integrity during system updates, maintaining synchronization between field-side input states and rack-level controller logic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What are the physical grounding requirements for the RS-485 interface on this module?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The RS-485 serial connection requires a dedicated shielded twisted-pair cable. The cable shield must be grounded at a single end to the cabinet earth ground bar to prevent ground loops, and a terminal resistance of 120 ohms must be enabled at the physical ends of the bus segment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What is the recommended operational power supply tolerance for the 24 VDC input?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The module accepts a standard 24 VDC supply with a typical operating tolerance of +\/- 10%. Power input should be conditioned using an external regulated industrial power supply with overcurrent and surge protection to prevent operational interruptions or thermal stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount the card securely in the dedicated subrack slot, ensuring top and bottom card retainers are fully engaged before applying power.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDe-energize all field-side power sources and system backplanes prior to physical insertion or removal of the card.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintain a minimum physical separation of 100 mm between low-voltage DC\/signal wiring and high-voltage AC power conductors within the wire ducting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure field wiring terminals are torqued to specified terminal block limits and strain-relief mechanisms are secured.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerify cabinet thermal management guarantees ambient temperatures surrounding the card remain strictly between -20 deg C and +60 deg C during continuous operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ABB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53224867758389,"sku":"XZ C825 A101 3BHE036346R0101","price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/7630\/5461\/files\/XZC825A1013BHE036346R0101.png?v=1785375392","url":"https:\/\/www.5gplc.com\/products\/3bhe036346r0101-abb-xz-c825-a101-processing-card","provider":"High Five PLC Solution Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
