ABB HESG324063R0100-216DB61 Tripping Module for REG 216 Numerical Generator Protection System

The combined designation HESG324063R0100-216DB61 is useful for identifying the exact ABB component because both the HESG part number and the 216DB61 type reference appear in product listings. ABB-related stock documentation also lists the same combination as HESG324063R0100 – 216DB61.

Product Identification

ABB HESG324063R0100 Overview

The ABB HESG324063R0100 is identified as the main part number for the 216DB61 module. Product records specifically associate the reference with an ABB numerical generator protection system and the REG 216 platform.

The 216DB61 designation provides an additional identification level within the ABB 216-series architecture. When documenting the product, it is preferable to retain both references rather than using only the shorter 216DB61 designation.

The recommended catalogue identification is therefore ABB HESG324063R0100-216DB61.

216DB61 Tripping Module

The 216DB61 is identified as a tripping module associated with the ABB REG 216 protection system. Available technical listings describe HESG324063R0100 as a component for an ABB numerical generator protection system and reference ABB Power Automation.

A tripping module is an important part of a protection system because protection logic must ultimately be capable of initiating the appropriate circuit-breaker or switching action when a defined protection condition occurs.

The exact protection logic, electrical interfaces and system configuration should be determined from the corresponding REG 216 documentation and the complete installed system.

REG 216 Numerical Generator Protection

The REG 216 designation is associated with numerical generator protection equipment. Numerical protection systems use electronic processing and protection logic to monitor electrical conditions and determine whether a protection action is required.

Within such an architecture, different modules can provide specific functions such as signal acquisition, processing, output control and tripping. The HESG324063R0100-216DB61 is associated with the tripping function within this system family.

The modular structure allows individual system components to be identified by their own ABB HESG and 216-series references.

ABB Power Automation Reference

Available product information identifies the HESG324063R0100 as a component associated with ABB Power Automation. The product listing describes the component as a tripping module for the REG 216 system.

This information is useful when distinguishing the 216DB61 from other ABB modules that use similar HESG numbering but perform different functions.

ABB 216 Series

The 216DB61 belongs to a broader ABB 216-series hardware family. Other product references in the same family include 216AB61 and 216BVC62A, each associated with different HESG part numbers. ABB-related product listings separately identify HESG324013R0101 with 216AB61 and HESG324442R0112 with 216BVC62A.

This modular product structure makes the exact part number important when identifying a component. A similar 216-series designation should not automatically be treated as interchangeable with HESG324063R0100.

Protection System Integration

The HESG324063R0100-216DB61 should be considered as part of the complete REG 216 numerical protection architecture. A protection system normally includes several functional sections that work together to monitor electrical signals, process protection conditions and initiate appropriate outputs.

The tripping function is particularly important because it provides the interface between protection decisions and the switching equipment that must respond to a fault or other defined operating condition.

The precise installation arrangement depends on the REG 216 configuration and the associated protection modules.

Generator Protection Applications

Generator protection systems are designed to monitor electrical and operating conditions associated with generators and their connected electrical networks.

Numerical protection equipment can combine measurement, logic and output functions in a modular electronic architecture. The REG 216 platform is associated with this type of numerical generator protection application, while the 216DB61 is identified as a tripping-related module.

The exact protection functions available in a particular installation depend on the complete system configuration and installed protection software.

Module Identification

For inventory and maintenance records, the following identification format is recommended:

ABB HESG324063R0100 — 216DB61 — REG 216 Tripping Module

The complete reference can also be recorded as:

ABB HESG324063R0100-216DB61

Both references can help distinguish this module from other ABB 216-series products.

Technical Identification Details

Relationship Between HESG324063R0100 and 216DB61

The two references in HESG324063R0100-216DB61 should be understood as complementary product identifiers. HESG324063R0100 is the main ABB part number, while 216DB61 is the corresponding type designation.

This combination appears consistently in ABB-related stock and product references. For example, an ABB stock list explicitly records HESG324063R0100 – 216DB61, while another product reference identifies the same HESG number as the main part number for TYPE 216DB61.

For search-engine and catalogue purposes, keeping both identifiers in the product title and content is recommended.

Maintenance Considerations

When maintaining an ABB REG 216 system, the exact part number should be recorded before replacing a module. The HESG number and 216DB61 designation provide two useful levels of identification.

• ABB product number: HESG324063R0100
• Type designation: 216DB61
• System: REG 216
• Application: Numerical generator protection
• Function: Tripping module
• Manufacturer family: ABB Power Automation

Additional information such as hardware revision, system configuration and cabinet position should also be recorded where available.

Replacement Identification

A replacement search should begin with the complete reference HESG324063R0100-216DB61. Searching only for “216DB61” may return products without the complete configuration information.

The following identifiers should be compared during product identification:

• HESG324063R0100
• 216DB61
• REG 216
• Numerical generator protection system
• Tripping module

Physical appearance alone should not be used as the sole basis for compatibility because ABB 216-series modules can have similar mechanical characteristics while serving different functions.

Related ABB 216-Series Components

The broader ABB 216-series family includes other modules with different HESG numbers. Available ABB-related references include HESG324013R0101 / 216AB61 and HESG324442R0112 / 216BVC62A.

These components should be distinguished from HESG324063R0100-216DB61 by their complete product numbers and functional designations.

Industrial Protection Architecture

A numerical protection system combines measurement and decision-making functions with output interfaces that allow the protection system to respond to abnormal electrical conditions.

The tripping module represents an output-oriented part of this protection architecture. It works within the complete protection system rather than functioning as an independent general-purpose PLC module.

For this reason, product descriptions should retain the REG 216 and generator-protection context when describing ABB HESG324063R0100-216DB61.
