ABB Advant Controller 31
Don’t let a discontinued part paralyze your production. Your legacy ABB system still has years of life left.
At Moore Automation, we act as the "specialized first-aid warehouse" for the world's industrial giants. When your plant faces a shutdown because an ABB AC31 (Series 40, 50, or 90) module has failed and the original manufacturer says "obsolete," we step in. We specialize in sourcing the hard-to-find, the discontinued, and the mission-critical "brains" of your operation.
With a massive on-site inventory, we offer faster delivery than the OEM and provide an exclusive one-year warranty on all parts, ensuring your twenty-year-old equipment stays as reliable as the day it was installed.
1.Ready-to-Ship: ABB AC31 Legacy Components
We carry a comprehensive stock of genuine ABB spares to keep your CS31 system bus operational:
- Central Units (CPUs): Including the high-performance 07KT94 and 07KT98 series.These are the core processors for your distributed automation systems.
- I/O Modules: Digital and analog units such as 07DI92, 07AI91, and 07DC91.
- Communication Couplers: 07KP90 (RCOM), 07KP93 (Modbus), and ARCNET integrated modules.
- Hard-to-Find Accessories: SmartMedia cards (07MC90), lithium battery modules (07LE90), and specific terminal blocks.

Eliminate the risk of obsolescence and maintain a facility built for uninterrupted performance.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I direct-replace an 07KT98 CPU with an adapter version?
A: Yes, but note that because the adapter is based on AC500 hardware, you must rewrite the application program using Automation Builder. A direct software import from the old AC31 system is not possible.
Q: Do these adapter modules fit my existing cabinet?
A: Perfectly. Care was taken during development to ensure the footprint and cabling positions remain identical to the original AC31 Series 90.
Q: Are the I/O adapter modules compatible with other brands?
A: No. AC31 adapter I/O modules are specifically designed to work with ABB CPUs featuring a master CS31 bus.
Q: What happens if a part is no longer manufactured?
A: That is our specialty. We maintain a "first-aid" stock of surplus and new-old-stock items to ensure you have a replacement even when ABB has stopped production.
