AS 235 H automation system
The AS 235 H automation system is the high-availability cabinet
version of the AS 235 range. In contrast to the simple cabinet
version, the AS 235 H is of redundant design and operates
according to the 1-out-of-2 principle.
It is possible to implement interruption-free operation with a fully-
redundant basic unit, the I/O bus (redundant as standard), the
I/O bus comparator and switchover modules, and redundant
I/O modules.
The AS 235 H must be ordered in the form of 2 separate ordering
units: the basic cabinet and the extension cabinet:
The basic cabinet is the main component of the AS 235 H auto-
mation system. It contains all components required for the
AS 235 H system to function and is fitted with up to 3 extension
units. It can therefore also be used on its own without an exten-
sion cabinet.
The extension cabinet is used to increase the number of slots
available for I/O modules. It can only be operated in conjunction
with the basic cabinet and can be equipped with up to 4 exten-
sion units. Together with the extension cabinet it is possible to
increase the number of slots for I/O modules in the basic cabinet
(39) to a total of 91.
Basic cabinet
The basic cabinet consists of the following main components:
Basic unit
The basic unit of the AS 235 H automation system consists of
2 identical partial systems which are designed symmetrically
and which operate in synchronism and redundant to one
another. A non-redundant basic unit can also be ordered.
The redundant basic unit comprises:
• Subrack 6DS9 027-8AB
• Power supply subrack DC 24 V / DC 5 V 6DS4 432-8AA
• 2 power supply modules C79451-Z1359-U9
DC 24 V / DC 5 V
• Backup module DC 24 V C79451-A3125-B227
• Central processing units ZE I and ZE II with
– 2 central processor modules 6DS1 141-8AA
– 2 EDC memory modules 4000 Kbyte 6DS1 844-8FA
– 2 backup batteries for memory module W79084-U1001-B2
– AS 235 system software, version G 6DS5 323-8AG
– 2 interface modules for I/O bus 1 6DS1 312-8BB
– 2 synchronization modules 6DS1 143-8AA
– Comparator/coupling module 6DS1 142-8AA
• 2 interface modules 6DS1 326-8BB
for mini floppy disk unit
• 2 alarm logic modules

• Cover with wiring duct 6DS9 927-8AA
The non-redundant basic unit comprises:
• Subrack 6DS9 027-8AB
• Power supply subrack DC 24 V / DC 5 V 6DS4 432-8AA
• Power supply module DC 24 V / DC 5 V C79451-Z1359-U9

The subrack for the central modules of the AS 235 H corre-
sponds to the ES 902 packaging system and is 10
U
high. It is
the supporting system for the two central processing units, the
comparator/coupling module and the interface modules for mini
floppy disk unit, operation channel and 20-m local bus. The
3-
U
high power supply subrack 6DS4 432-8AA accommodates
the power supply modules required for the basic unit as well as
the backup module.
The power supply module C79451-Z1359-U9 is used to supply
the basic unit with DC 5 V. Each AS 235 H partial system is sup-
plied from its own power supply module. The backup module
compensates brief voltage dips in the DC 24 V supply.
The central processor modules of the AS 235 H basically corre-
spond to those of the AS 235 system. The required clocks are no
longer generated on the module itself but are supplied by the
synchronization module.
