ALSTOM MVAX12B1DA0753A – Plug?in I/O Module for MVAX Automation and Protection Systems

• Warranty: 365 days coverage (replacement or repair for quality-related issues).

• Delivery: In-stock ships in about 1 week; no more than one month at the latest.

• Payment: 50% advance payment; full payment prior to delivery.

• Express options: FedEx, UPS, DHL—door-to-door with tracking.

• MVAX rack compatibility: Purpose-built to plug into ALSTOM MVAX backplanes for quick expansion without rewiring the control cabinet.

• Mixed I/O capability: Commonly supports a mix of digital inputs/outputs and process analog channels for plant signals that change over time.

• Backplane-powered: Power is typically supplied via the MVAX backplane, simplifying field wiring.

• Form–fit–function replacement: Suitable as a like?for?like swap in many existing MVAX installations, minimizing downtime.

• Service-friendly layout: You might notice that terminal labeling and status LEDs (where fitted) make commissioning and fault tracing faster.

This module suits brownfield upgrades and maintenance in ALSTOM-based systems. In many cases we see it used in:

• Substation automation panels (MV/LV switchgear monitoring and interlocking).

• Power generation balance-of-plant—pumps, fans, and auxiliary skids.

• Industrial processes where MVAX controls interface to 4–20 mA loops and dry contacts.

• Retrofit projects where form-fit-function compatibility is a priority.

• Reliability: MVAX hardware has a solid track record in utilities and heavy industry—downtime is typically low once installed correctly.

• Compatibility: Form-fit with existing MVAX racks helps avoid engineering rework, drawings updates, and field rewiring.

• Cost control: Extending the service life of installed assets can defer costly platform migrations.

• Technical support: We can assist with part identification, revision matching, and signal mapping to reduce commissioning risk.

• Cabinet standards: Install in a clean, ventilated panel per IEC/UL cabinet practices; allow airflow around the MVAX rack.

• Wiring: De-energize the system; observe ESD precautions; land field wiring on the designated terminal interface. Keep analog and digital wiring separated to reduce noise.

• Grounding: Ensure rack and shields are bonded to panel ground; avoid ground loops on 4–20 mA circuits.

• Commissioning: Verify backplane seating, check LEDs/status (if present), then validate I/O points with a loop test before returning to service.

• Routine maintenance: Periodically inspect terminals for looseness, clean dust with dry air, and re-check analog loop calibration annually. Firmware updates only where applicable to the installed MVAX platform.

• Safety: Follow site lockout/tagout procedures; verify absence of voltage before handling field terminals.

• Manufacturer production typically under ISO 9001 quality systems.

• Conformity: CE marking is common for ALSTOM industrial control modules; RoHS compliance where applicable.

• Our supply warranty: 365 days from delivery.

You might notice these parts often ship together in retrofit kits. Model naming can vary by build and region, but the following are commonly paired with MVAX cards:

• MVAX-PSU24 – MVAX 24 VDC power-supply module for backplane feed (select rating to match rack load).

• MVAX-RACK-12 – MVAX 19-inch rack/backplane assembly with 12 card slots for expansion.

• MVAX-TB-DA – Terminal interface block set for mixed digital/analog field wiring to MVAX boards.

If you’d like us to verify revision compatibility or map the I/O against your drawing set, send a photo of the rack label and your current module list. One thing I appreciate with MVAX is how consistent the mechanicals are—makes life easier during tight outages.
