AI810
ABB
Overview
The AI810 is an Analog Input from ABB. It provides 8 channels and is built for signal interfacing within the ABB product portfolio systems.
Application & Technical Notes
As an analog input, the AI810 is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where the ABB product portfolio equipment is installed. It converts field signals (sensors, switches, transmitters) into the digital or analogue values the controller processes, forming the acquisition layer of the automation scheme.
Key published characteristics include 8 channels. These values should be confirmed against the current manufacturer datasheet before final selection, as options and suffixes vary by configuration.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
Avoid condensation — the rated humidity is 5 to 95 %, non-condensing; store and operate the module in a dry, pollution-degree-appropriate enclosure. Verify field wiring, shielding and grounding at installation; check terminal torque and confirm signal types match the configured range. Periodically inspect for loose terminations, induced noise and channel-level diagnostics reported by the controller. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.
Sourcing & Procurement
When sourcing the AI810, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine ABB stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.
Confirm the module matches your ABB product portfolio rack, the required channel count, signal type and voltage, and the firmware/configuration of the controller. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

Specifications
The AI810 Analog Input Module has 8 channels. Each channel can be either a voltage or current input. The current input is able to handle a short circuit to the transmitter supply at least 30 V d.c without damage. Current limiting is performed with a PTC resistor. The input resistance of the current input is 250 ohm, PTC included.
