ABB part numbers are widely used across industrial robots, controllers, cables, and automation components.
This ABB Part Number Index is designed to help engineers, maintenance teams, and procurement professionals quickly understand, identify, and locate ABB part numbers, without digging through complex manuals or PDFs.
Whether you are troubleshooting a robot, replacing a damaged component, or verifying compatibility, this page serves as a central reference point for ABB spare parts.
What Is an ABB Part Number?
An ABB part number is a unique identification code (typically starting with 3HAC, DSQC, or 3HNA) assigned to each robot component. These codes are essential for:
- Defining Function: Identifying if it's a CPU, a Drive, or a Harness.
- System Compatibility: Matching the part to the correct robot controller (e.g., IRC5, S4C, M2000).
- Revision Tracking: Understanding version differences (e.g., -001 vs. -002).

-
ABB IRC5 Index: Focus on 3HAC02xxxx series and DSQC 600-1000 series boards.
-
ABB S4C / S4C+ Index: Focus on DSQC 500 series boards and M2000 drive units.
-
ABB S4 / M94-M98 Index: Focus on legacy DSQC 300 series and S3 system components.

Discontinued ABB Part & Smart Replacements
Many ABB part numbers are now "Legacy" or "Discontinued," but that doesn't mean your robot must be retired. Our index helps you bridge the gap by identifying:
-
Functional Equivalents: Which new DSQC board can replace your old one.
-
Version Upgrades: When a -002 part can safely replace a -001.
-
Refurbishment Options: Certified tested alternatives for phased-out 3HAC components.

FAQ: Identifying ABB Part Numbers
Q: Where is the part number located on ABB hardware? A: Look for a silver or white sticker. Most electronic parts start with "DSQC" followed by a 3-digit number. Mechanical and cable assemblies usually start with "3HAC" or "3HNE".
Q: Does the suffix (e.g., -001) matter? A: Yes. In ABB robotics, the suffix often indicates a specific hardware revision or firmware compatibility. Always verify the full number before purchasing.
Q: I can't find my part number in your index, what should I do? A: ABB has released tens of thousands of codes over 40 years. If your specific code isn't listed, contact our technical team—we can often cross-reference it to a modern replacement.
