Description
The ABB DSSA 165 Power Supply Unit is a high-reliability industrial power module designed for ABB Advant Master distributed control systems. It provides regulated 24V DC power for controllers, I/O modules, communication equipment, and other automation system components requiring stable continuous operation.
The DSSA 165 is part of the ABB Advant OCS (Open Control System) power supply family and is commonly installed in ABB MasterPiece 200, MasterView 800, and related legacy process automation platforms. It converts AC input power into reliable DC output power for critical control system infrastructure.
This power supply module is widely used in power plants, chemical processing, oil & gas, marine automation, and industrial production facilities where long-term maintenance of existing ABB distributed control systems is required.
