Product Overview

The ABB DSDP170 (Part Number 57160001-ADF) is a sophisticated high-speed pulse acquisition module designed for the MasterPiece 200 series and integrated Advant Controller environments. This hardware serves as a dedicated frequency-to-digital interface, capturing rapid pulse sequences from field-mounted encoders, flow sensors, and tachometers. By processing high-frequency signals locally on the board, the DSDP170 alleviates the computational load on the central processor, ensuring real-time accuracy for high-velocity industrial processes. Its architectural design focuses on signal isolation and high-resolution measurement, providing the precise feedback loop required for advanced Distributed Control System (DCS) operations.
