FPNO-21 Two‑Port PROFINET IO Adapter Module for ABB Drives | ABB

The Original New ABB FPNO-21 (3ABD50000192779) is a dual‑port PROFINET IO adapter module designed to seamlessly integrate ABB common architecture drives into PROFINET industrial Ethernet networks. Installed directly into the drive's option slot, the module enables high‑speed cyclic and acyclic data exchange between the drive and PROFINET controllers, supporting real‑time control, parameter access, and diagnostic monitoring. Certified according to Conformance Class B (CC‑B), the FPNO‑21 supports PROFIdrive and ABB drive profiles, offering robust connectivity for demanding industrial automation applications.

Core Engineering Highlights:
Dual‑port PROFINET IO adapter with embedded switch | Conformance Class B (CC‑B) certified | 10/100 Mbit/s auto‑negotiation | Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) support | PROFINET S2 system redundancy | OPC UA server for condition monitoring and diagnostics | PROFIsafe over PROFINET support | Shared Device support | SNTP time synchronization | Compatible with ABB common architecture drives

Key Features:

• Original New ABB FPNO‑21 module (3ABD50000192779)

• Dual RJ‑45 Ethernet ports with embedded switch – supports star, daisy‑chain, and ring (MRP) topologies

• PROFINET IO Conformance Class B (CC‑B) certified

• Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) support – no external switch required

• PROFINET S2 system redundancy – supports two redundant PROFINET controllers (primary/backup)

• OPC UA server built‑in – secure data access for condition monitoring, diagnostics, and asset management

• Shared Device support – one drive accessible from two controllers via a single FPNO‑21 (e.g., one PLC for drive control, another SafetyPLC for PROFIsafe communication)

• PROFIsafe over PROFINET support (requires FSO‑12 or FSO‑21 safety module with ACS880)

• SNTP protocol support for time synchronization

• Drive Composer Pro software compatible for start‑up and maintenance

• Easy station naming via index parameter (abbdrive‑xx)

• Easy drive replacement – PROFINET station name stored as part of drive backup file

• Powered directly through the host drive's option interface

• Hot‑swappable installation
