What voltage and current outputs does the AO801 provide?

The module provides 8 independent analog output channels supporting both voltage (0-10V) and current (0-20mA, 4-20mA) output modes, typically selectable per application.

Which ABB PLC systems are compatible with the AO801?

The AO801 is designed for ABB's compact and modular PLC systems, including AC500 and similar architectures using standard backplane connectivity.

What is the resolution of the analog output?

The AO801 features 12-bit resolution, providing fine-grained analog control suitable for most industrial process applications.

Can the AO801 be used for proportional valve control?

Yes, the module is commonly used to control proportional valves, variable frequency drives, and other analog actuators in process control systems.

What is the typical response time of this module?

Analog conversion is typically fast (<10ms), making it suitable for real-time process control and feedback loops.

Is the AO801 suitable for hazardous/certified environments?

The module meets standard CE certification; consult ABB documentation for specific compliance with ATEX, SIL, or other safety standards if required.
