ABB DSTC160 Termination Module  

The ABB DSTC160 is an industrial-grade high-density termination module engineered for organized wiring consolidation, signal distribution, and basic fault protection in ABB AC500 series PLC systems and large-scale industrial automation networks—specifically optimized for applications requiring centralized termination of high-volume digital/analog signals (sensors, actuators) in harsh industrial environments (heavy manufacturing plants, process control complexes, utility substations, and renewable energy farms). It functions as a "high-capacity wiring hub," streamlining field-to-PLC connections, filtering electrical noise, and safeguarding AC500 I/O modules from common wiring faults (e.g., short circuits, overcurrent, reverse polarity). Designed to prioritize space efficiency, scalability, and ease of maintenance for large I/O clusters, it balances high-density design, industrial durability, and seamless integration for mission-critical large-scale automation wiring scenarios. Below is its detailed specification:
