Product Introduction (No Fluff)
The ABB SE96920414 / YPK112A is a legacy communication or interface board used in older ABB automation systems. YPK112A is commonly listed with order code 3ASD573001A13 and described as a communication board, while SE96920414 typically appears as an associated identifier on the same or related units.
Its main value is as a verified replacement for legacy ABB stations. When a communication or interface board fails, a correctly matched YPK112A unit with the same order code can help restore system communication. Because revision codes and associated IDs vary, always confirm the full label before purchase.
QA & Testing SOP (Dynamic & Transparent)
- Label match: Confirm YPK112A, SE96920414, and 3ASD573001A13 match the original unit. Reject units with missing or re-stickered labels.
- Physical inspection: Check connectors, front ports, ribbon cables, and PCB condition. Look for burnt components, corrosion, or bent pins.
- Revision check: Verify revision code such as REV G if present, as it may affect compatibility.
- Host-unit test: Install the board into the correct ABB controller or cabinet. Power up and verify normal status indicators.
- Communication verification: Confirm that the controller or station can communicate with the intended devices after replacement.
Installation Pitfalls & Guide (Engineer to Engineer)
❗ Do not treat it as a standalone PLC CPU. YPK112A is a communication/interface board, not a general-purpose processor module.
❗ Order code must match. Use 3ASD573001A13 unless ABB documentation confirms interchangeability.
❗ SE96920414 and YPK112A may appear together. They are not always two independent products; confirm whether SE96920414 is a label, assembly number, or related board ID.
❗ Ignore generic protocol claims. Do not list Modbus, Profibus, CAN, RS232, or RS485 unless the physical nameplate or original manual confirms it.
Replacement steps:
- Record rack position, slot, cable connections, and LED status before removal.
- De-energize the host unit if required.
- Remove the faulty board carefully and inspect mating connectors.
- Install the replacement YPK112A with the correct order code.
- Restore power, check diagnostics, and verify communication.
Technical FAQ
1. Is SE96920414 / YPK112A still available from ABB?
It should be treated as a legacy spare. Factory availability must be confirmed with ABB or an authorized distributor; independent suppliers commonly carry surplus stock.
2. Is YPK112A a processor module?
Not confirmed. It is most commonly described as a communication board/module, but the exact function depends on the host system.
3. Does it support Modbus or Profibus?
Not confirmed. Some third-party listings claim Modbus/Profibus/CAN support, but this cannot be verified from official documentation.
4. Can SE96920414 replace YPK112A?
Not automatically. They often appear together, but you must confirm whether they are the same board, related IDs, or different components.
5. What warranty is reasonable for surplus stock?
Ask for at least 30–90 days functional warranty, clear nameplate photos showing YPK112A and 3ASD573001A13, and a return option if the board fails integration testing.
