ABB 23BA20
1. Overview
The ABB 23BA20 is a binary output module (discrete output module) belonging to the ABB RTU560 remote terminal unit series. Specially designed for the RTU560 remote terminal system, the module acts as an executive unit. It receives commands from the central unit or monitoring board and outputs control signals through integrated internal relay contacts to execute corresponding control operations.
