ABB NTCL01 Communication Link Termination Unit | Model 6636997D1

The ABB NTCL01 (6636997D1) is a precision-engineered INFI-Net Communication Link Termination Unit designed for mission-critical industrial automation environments. This module termination unit delivers reliable signal processing and network connectivity for ABB Symphony Harmony INFI 90 and S+ HR control systems, ensuring seamless data transmission across distributed control architectures.

Technical Specifications

Model Number NTCL01 / 6636997D1
Product Type INFI-Net Communication Link Termination Unit
Compatibility NIS, NKLS modules | Symphony Harmony INFI 90 | S+ HR systems
Dimensions (L×W×H) 220.98 × 236.22 × 96.52 mm
Net Weight 0.3 kg
Operating Temperature -25°C to +70°C
Mounting Type DIN rail / Panel mount
Communication Protocol INFI-Net proprietary protocol
Power Supply 24V DC (via system backplane)
Certification CE, WEEE Category 5 compliant
HS Code 8537.10.91
Country of Origin Sweden

Key Features & Benefits

  • Seamless INFI-Net Integration: Provides dedicated termination for communication links between NIS and NKLS modules, ensuring stable network topology
  • Industrial-Grade Reliability: Built to withstand harsh environments with extended temperature range and robust EMI/RFI shielding
  • Plug-and-Play Installation: Standardized mounting and wiring interfaces reduce commissioning time by up to 40%
  • Signal Integrity Protection: Advanced termination circuitry minimizes reflection and crosstalk in high-speed communication networks
  • Compact Footprint: Space-efficient design optimizes cabinet utilization in dense control panel layouts
  • Hot-Swappable Design: Enables maintenance without system shutdown in redundant configurations

Application Scenarios

The NTCL01 termination unit is engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring deterministic communication:

  • Process Control Systems: Oil & gas refineries, chemical plants, pharmaceutical manufacturing
  • Power Generation: Thermal, hydro, and combined-cycle power plants requiring real-time monitoring
  • Water Treatment: Municipal and industrial wastewater facilities with distributed I/O networks
  • Pulp & Paper: Continuous process lines demanding high-availability control architectures
  • Mining Operations: Material handling and processing systems in extreme environmental conditions

System Integration Solutions

Network Architecture: The NTCL01 serves as a critical junction point in INFI-Net topologies, terminating communication links to prevent signal degradation. When paired with NIS (Network Interface Stations) and NKLS (Network Link Stations), it enables multi-drop configurations supporting up to 32 nodes per segment.

Compatibility Matrix: Fully compatible with ABB Symphony Harmony INFI 90 controllers, S+ HR I/O modules, and legacy INFI-Net infrastructure. Supports mixed-generation deployments for phased system upgrades without protocol conversion.

Redundancy Support: Integrates with dual-redundant INFI-Net configurations for fault-tolerant operation. Automatic failover ensures <0.5s switchover time during primary link failures.

Installation & Configuration

Mounting: Standard 35mm DIN rail or panel-mount brackets (included). Recommended spacing: 25mm minimum clearance for ventilation.

Wiring: Screw-terminal connections accept 14-22 AWG wire. Color-coded terminals simplify field installation. Shielded twisted-pair cable required for INFI-Net links (ABB part NKLS01-series recommended).

Commissioning: No software configuration required. LED indicators provide real-time status: Power (green), Communication Active (amber), Fault (red). Refer to ABB documentation 3BDD013464 for detailed setup procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the NTCL01 be used with third-party DCS systems?
A: No, the NTCL01 is specifically designed for ABB INFI-Net protocol and is not compatible with Modbus, PROFIBUS, or other standard industrial networks.

Q: What is the maximum cable length supported?
A: INFI-Net segments support up to 1,200 meters (3,937 ft) between termination units when using ABB-approved shielded cable.

Q: Is this module hot-swappable?
A: Yes, in redundant configurations. Single-channel systems require controlled shutdown to prevent communication disruption.

Q: What diagnostic capabilities are available?
A: Built-in LED indicators show power status, communication activity, and fault conditions. Advanced diagnostics require connection to ABB Control Builder software.

Q: Does the unit require external power supply?
A: No, the NTCL01 draws power from the system backplane (24V DC). Ensure adequate power budget in your rack configuration.
