The SDCS‑PIN‑205C is a power‑interface board module designed for ABB’s DCS (Drive Control System) modular architecture. As part of the “PIN” family of interface boards, the 205C variant is used to interface large converter modules with control electronics in industrial drive systems. Its revision “C” indicates an updated version with enhanced reliability or compatibility compared to earlier 205‑series boards.
This board enables service‑friendly modular replacement of the interface portion of a drive system, supporting high‑current converter modules, maintaining system uptime, and simplifying maintenance logistics in heavy industrial installations.

The SDCS‑PIN‑205C board functions as a critical interface module within modular drive control systems. In a drive cabinet containing converter modules (thyristor or IGBT stacks) and control electronics, an interface board like the 205C handles the tasks of measurement of armature current and voltage, snubber network protection, signal isolation and routing between the high‑power domain and control domain.
With its revision “C”, this model offers improved compatibility and reliability for high‑current installations. Maintenance and service strategies in heavy industries (steel mills, mining, large conveyors) often rely on standardized boards like the 205C for fast swaps, reducing downtime and spare‑part complexity.
The board’s compact size and moderate weight (~1 kg) allow it to be integrated into dense cabinet layouts, while its standardised design supports stock‑spare strategies. It’s designed to operate in demanding industrial environments and withstand typical drive cabinet conditions.
Industrial DC or AC motor drives in heavy industries (steelmaking, mining, pulp & paper) where modular drive systems are used.
Large conveyor drives, hoist systems, ship propulsion drives requiring standardized interface modules.
Retrofit projects where legacy drives are upgraded with service‑friendly modules like the 205C.
Control cabinets with high availability requirements, where interface boards are stocked as spares.
Drive systems with high current and voltage ratings, requiring robust measurement, snubber and isolation functions.
Industrial automation environments where standardized modules simplify maintenance, spare logistics and sourcing.
Environments with dense cabinet layouts, where board size and weight matter for serviceability and design.
Modular Replaceability – Enables replacing the interface board portion rather than the entire converter stack, reducing downtime and cost.
Standardised Form‑Factor – Common module size and interface across drive units make spare stocking and servicing simpler.
High‑Current Compatibility – Designed for large drive modules with high current and voltage ratings, suitable for industrial heavy duty.
Compact & Service‑Friendly Design – Approx. 160 × 120 × 80 mm size and ~1.06 kg weight facilitate integration in tight cabinets and easier handling.
Industrial‑Grade Reliability – Built to withstand ambient conditions typical of heavy industry, with appropriate thermal, electrical and mechanical design.
Reduced Inventory Complexity – Because it is a standard interface board across multiple units, fewer custom boards need to be stocked.
Quick Field Replacement – Standardized design allows quick board swap in field service, minimizing interruption.
Compatibility with Modular Drive Architecture – Fully integrated into ABB’s DCS modular system, ensuring interchangeability and maintenance alignment.
