Extended MTU Overview
The ABB TU831V1 Extended Termination Unit (3BSE013235R1) connects field wiring to S800 I/O modules. It is built for larger wires and provides more connection space. This 8-channel passive unit handles up to 250 V and 3 A per channel.
- Handles thick wires: Accepts solid wire up to 6 mm² (10 AWG).
- 8 isolated channels: Each channel uses two terminals (16 total connections).
- Mechanical keying: Prevents wrong I/O module insertion.
- 12-month warranty against defects.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Can I connect 10 AWG wire to this MTU?Yes. The TU831V1 accepts solid wire up to 6 mm², which is equivalent to 10 AWG. Use stranded wire up to 4 mm².
- What tools do I need for installation?A standard screwdriver with 0.6 Nm torque setting. Use wire strippers set to 7 mm. No special tools are required.
- Is this MTU compatible with 16-channel I/O modules?No. It is designed for 8-channel modules only (DI820, DI821, DO820, DO821). For 16 channels, consider TU841V1.
- Why are there two terminals per channel?Each isolated channel needs a signal and a return connection. This design keeps channels electrically separate for better noise immunity.
- Can I mount this vertically?Yes, mounting is allowed in both directions. The maximum ambient temperature remains 55°C regardless of orientation.
Selection Guide
- Choose TU831V1 when your field wiring is heavy gauge (up to 10 AWG).
- Verify I/O module type: only DI820, DI821, DO820, DO821 (single).
- For marine installations, this unit holds ABS, BV, DNV-GL, LR approvals.
- Set the two mechanical keys to match your I/O module before snapping it on.
- Need isolated channels with higher density? Look at the TU841V1 (16 channels).
