ABB TU840 3BSE020846R1 Termination Unit – AC 800M Controller Series
In a continuous process plant — whether a petrochemical refinery, a pulp and paper mill, or a power generation facility — the integrity of every signal path between field instruments and the control system is mission-critical. When a termination unit fails or is missing, field I/O signals cannot be reliably routed to the processor module, resulting in blind control loops, unplanned shutdowns, and potentially catastrophic process upsets. The ABB TU840 3BSE020846R1 Termination Unit is the essential hardware interface that keeps those signal paths intact, ensuring your AC 800M-based DCS operates without interruption.
The TU840 (catalog reference 3BSE020846R1) occupies a precise position within ABB’s AC 800M controller family — one of the most widely deployed distributed control system platforms in heavy industry worldwide. As a dedicated termination unit, it provides the mechanical and electrical connection point between field wiring and the corresponding I/O or communication module, eliminating loose-wire risk and simplifying cabinet maintenance. With ABB’s AC 800M installed across thousands of sites in over 100 countries, genuine spare parts like the TU840 are in constant global demand, making reliable sourcing a strategic priority for every plant maintenance team.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What is the difference between TU840 and TU841?
- A: The TU840 and TU841 are both termination units within the AC 800M family but are designed for different module types and connection configurations. Please share your existing module part numbers so our team can confirm the correct termination unit for your application.
- Q: Is the TU840 3BSE020846R1 in stock?
- A: Stock levels vary. Submit an RFQ and we will confirm current availability and lead time within 24 hours.
- Q: Can I replace the TU840 without re-wiring field cables?
- A: Yes. The termination unit is designed to remain in place during module replacement, so field wiring does not need to be disturbed — a key advantage for live-plant maintenance.
- Q: Do you provide export documentation for customs clearance?
- A: Yes. We provide commercial invoice, packing list, and certificate of origin. Additional documentation (e.g., FORM E for ASEAN, EUR.1 for EU) can be arranged upon request.
