Process interfaces for any speed The AC 800PEC provides two kinds of I/O – fast and slow. The fast I/O system covers read and write operations requiring less than 1 ms, and the slow I/O system covers speeds above 1 ms.

The fast I/O system is AC 800PEC specific, using devices connected exclusively via fiber optic links, and brings substantial advantages compared to electric concepts:

• Fast communication between controller and I/O devices

• High immunity to electromagnetic interference

• Potential-free connections, making isolating transmitters obsolete

The slow I/O modules from ABB’s S800 system can be added to any configuration, depending on project needs.

Versatile and reliable The AC 800PEC adapts to any application

Seamless integration into plant control In today’s demanding market, a controller must not only deliver maximum performance but also provide transparency. In this respect, the

AC 800PEC provides a large range of possibilities. Integrated communication ensures transparent, plant-wide data exchange and control – from overall plant control to separate processes. Use of ABB’s System 800xA with the powerful AC 800PEC controller permits uniform automation throughout the plant, seamlessly integrating advanced solutions into the process control system. The AC 800PEC provides connectivity, using either native (built-in) or add-on functionality. Native (depending on the configuration):

• MMS

• Modbus TCP Slave

• IEC61850

• ABB Fast Fiber Optic Link

• ABB Drivebus (DDCS)

• IbaPDA

• Optical Modulebus (S800)

• CANopen

Add-on

Using ABB CEX Modules:

• ABB Drivebus (DDCS)

• Profibus Master DPV1

• Modbus RTU

• S100 I/O

• Masterbus 300

Using Anybus modules

• CANopen

• ControlNet

• DeviceNet

• Profibus Slave

• Profibus Slave DPV1

• Profibus Master DPV1

• Profinet I/O

• EtherCAT Slave

• Ethernet/IP

Well-suited to a harsh environment – the AC 800PEC

Since the AC 800PEC controller is used in different ABB solutions, there is a huge installed base, which enables the extraction of long-term lifecycle experiences.

Traction, with its particularly harsh environmental conditions, is one of the most important applications of the AC 800PEC.

The controller operates through a wide temperature range (-40 to +70 °C), with vibrations according to traction standards. The compact solution is the ideal response to the demands of restricted spaces and allows integration of the processing unit together with all the I/O’s in the same compact hardware device.

Reliability is a must – the AC 800PEC in powergeneration

Typically, excitation systems are used for generator control in power plants where high reliability is the no. 1 requirement. Due to the very short process cycles, traditional redundancy concepts are no longer applicable.

The modular architecture of the AC 800PEC not only greatly reduces the complexity of the overall system, but redundant subsystems also provide increased reliability. Should a problem occur in one subsystem, the main controller switches over to the remaining subsystems, which are scaled in such a way that the overall task can still be fulfilled. Should the main controller fail, a second controller is available in hot-standby.The modular architecture of the AC 800PEC not
