Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is the core function of the ABB 3HAC7998-1 control cable?
The 3HAC7998-1 transmits control signals between robotic or automation controllers and peripheral modules, enabling precise and synchronized operations.
2. Can the cable be bent or routed around tight mechanical spaces?
Yes. The cable has a flexible jacket that allows for efficient routing, but minimum bend radius guidelines should be followed to avoid internal damage.
3. Is this cable suitable for outdoor or high-moisture environments?
No. It is intended for dry, indoor industrial use. If outdoor use is required, additional sealing or conduit protection is recommended.
4. How should the cable be stored before use?
Store in a dry, temperature-controlled environment. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight or moisture to maintain insulation quality.
5. Does the cable come pre-terminated with connectors?
Depending on the supplier, it may come pre-terminated. ABB also offers raw cable variants for custom termination.
6. How does the shielding in the 3HAC7998-1 help performance?
The shielding prevents EMI/RFI from distorting control signals, which is essential for maintaining synchronization in robotic systems.
7. Can this cable be used with non-ABB systems?
Physically, it may be compatible, but it is optimized and certified for ABB systems. Using it outside recommended environments may affect warranty coverage.
8. What is the expected lifespan under standard operating conditions?
When properly installed and maintained, the cable can last upwards of 5 to 7 years in standard operating conditions.
9. Are there special tools required for installation?
Basic wiring and insulation tools suffice. Ensure adherence to ABB’s recommended torque settings and connector standards during termination.
10. What are the recommended safety practices when installing this cable?
Ensure power is off before handling. Use antistatic precautions (ESD-safe equipment), avoid over-bending, and secure all connections to prevent vibration-related wear.
