2801-NC3 Allen Bradley

Description

Product Name: 2801-NC3  Allen Braley Central control module

Product details:  

The Allen-Bradley 2801-NC3 is a specialized communication cable used within the Rockwell Automation ecosystem, specifically designed for connecting configuration tools to motor control hardware.

Below is a detailed breakdown of this product in English.

1. Product Description

The 2801-NC3 is a dedicated programming/configuration cable primarily used to interface between a PC (or handheld terminal) and Allen-Bradley ArmorStart® Distributed Motor Controllers. It serves as the physical link required to monitor, configure, and troubleshoot motor starters in an industrial environment.

2. Technical Specifications (Parameters)

3. Product Advantages

• Plug-and-Play Setup: Allows for immediate connection between a laptop and the motor controller without complex wiring.

• Rugged Construction: Built to withstand harsh factory floor conditions, including exposure to vibration, moisture, and industrial lubricants.

• Precise Compatibility: Specifically engineered for the ArmorStart series, ensuring data integrity and preventing electrical damage that “generic” cables might cause.

• Diagnostic Efficiency: Enables real-time monitoring of motor parameters (current, voltage, fault codes), significantly reducing downtime during troubleshooting.

4. Key Precautions (Notes)

• Interface Requirements: Since modern laptops rarely have DB9 serial ports, you will likely need a high-quality USB-to-RS232 adapter (such as the Allen-Bradley 1203-USB) to use this cable.

• Power Awareness: Ensure the motor controller is properly grounded before connecting the cable to prevent ground loops that could damage your PC’s serial port.

• Handle with Care: Avoid sharp bends or pulling the cable by the connector housing, as this can fatigue the internal copper shielding.

• Firmware Compatibility: Always check that your software (e.g., Connected Components Workbench or RSNetWorx) is compatible with the hardware revision of the controller you are accessing.

5. Product Applications

The 2801-NC3 cable is used in the following scenarios:

• Commissioning: Uploading initial parameter sets to new ArmorStart units on a conveyor line or assembly system.

• Maintenance & Troubleshooting: Connecting a technician’s laptop to a faulted motor starter to read specific error logs.

• Parameter Backup: Saving configuration files from an existing unit before replacing it with a new one to ensure “Copy-Paste” consistency.

• Firmware Updates: Flashing the internal firmware of the motor controller to access new features or security patches.
