ABB Advant Controller 450 The proven process controlle
Powerful control functions:
The Advant Controller 450 excels in process control with comprehensive and powerful control capabilities.
It not only performs basic tasks such as logic, sequence, positioning and regulation control,
but also has the ability to manage data and text and generate reports.
On industrial production lines, it can precisely control the start-stop sequence of equipment based on preset logic,
ensure that robotic arms accurately grasp and place materials through positioning control,
and accurately regulate process parameters such as temperature, pressure, and flow rate.
The controller supports self-tuning adaptive control, PID control and fuzzy logic control.
In the chemical production process, self-tuning adaptive control can automatically adjust the control parameters according to the dynamic changes
in the reaction process to ensure that the reaction is always in an optimal state; PID control plays an important role in maintaining stable flow or pressure control; fuzzy logic control can effectively deal with complex,
difficult to accurately model control problems, such as temperature control to deal with non-linear and time-varying characteristics.
It is programmed graphically, based on the AMPL language, which is intuitive and easy to understand, reducing programming difficulty and improving development efficiency. Users can make use of the rich library of program elements and function blocks for project development, and can also customise the program blocks according to the actual needs, further expanding the functions of the controller, so that it can be better adapted to the diversified industrial application scenarios.
Rich and flexible I/O configuration:
With a complete and diversified series of process I/O modules, it can meet the connection requirements of different industrial equipment and processes.
Its I/O modules cover a wide range of types, including general-purpose analogue input and output modules with different ratings,
which can be used to collect and control analogue signals, such as temperature, pressure and other continuously changing physical quantities measured
by sensors; and digital input and output modules, which are used to process discrete digital signals to achieve switching control and status monitoring
of equipment. Pt100, thermocouple and pulse input modules are also available for special application scenarios such as precise temperature measurement
and counting.
To meet specific industrial requirements, the controller offers a variety of special interfaces.
The precise digital positioning interface ensures high-precision positioning of motion control equipment, which plays a key role in precision machining equipment; the switchgear integration interface facilitates the connection with various types of switchgear to achieve effective control of the power system; the variable speed motor control interface can flexibly adjust the speed of the motor according to the requirements of the production process to improve the efficiency of energy utilisation; and the communication interfaces with programmable controllers from other manufacturers enable equipment from different manufacturers to work together to improve energy efficiency.
The communication interface with other brands of programmable controllers enables equipment from different manufacturers to work together, improving system compatibility and integration.
The Advant Controller 450 has an I/O capacity of up to 5,700 points, with powerful data processing and device connection capabilities.
It supports both central (S100 I/O) and distributed (S800 I/O) I/O modes, providing great flexibility for the construction of industrial control systems. the S100 I/O module is mounted on the I/O racks near the CPU racks, which is suitable for scenarios with high real-time requirements and relatively centralised equipment, and is able to respond quickly to control commands.
The S800 I/O station can be installed up to 13.3 km away from the controller via the high-speed serial communication bus Advant Fieldbus 100, which is suitable for large-scale industrial projects with widely distributed equipment and effectively reduces wiring costs and complexity.
Extensive communication capabilities:
Support for a wide range of communication protocols gives it a great advantage when building complex industrial control systems.
Through the MasterBus 300/300E protocol, it can communicate efficiently with other member stations of Advant OCS,
realising data sharing and collaborative work among the devices in the system, and ensuring the coordinated operation of the whole control system,
while the GCOM protocol facilitates the communication with external computers and the AdvaSoft for Windows software,
which is convenient for the realization of The GCOM protocol facilitates communication with external computers and
AdvaSoft for Windows software for more advanced data analysis,
monitoring and management functions.
The Advant Fieldbus 100 protocol enables the controller to communicate reliably with distributed I/O stations, programmable controllers and motor drives for real-time control and condition monitoring of field devices. In industrial automated production lines, the protocol can be used to obtain sensor data in real time and adjust the operating status of motors in a timely manner, ensuring the continuity and stability of the production process.
RCOM/RCOM + protocol is suitable for long distance communication with remote terminals via dedicated or dial-up telecommunication lines, and plays an important role in the field of remote monitoring and control.RS232 protocol is used to communicate with external computers at the process signal/device level, and supports ABB's EXCOM protocol, as well as the printout of local data, reports, event messages, and alarms.MVI (Multi-Vendor Interface) protocol is used for real-time monitoring and status monitoring of field devices. (The Multi-Vendor Interface (MVI) protocol allows the controller to communicate with other brands of control systems via MODBUS I, Siemens 3964R, or Allen-Bradley's DF1 protocol, increasing system compatibility and openness.
Redundant design for high availability:
In order to ensure high system availability during industrial production, Advant Controller 450 adopts backup redundancy design in several key parts. In terms of communication, MasterBus 300/300E and Advant Fieldbus 100 are equipped with redundancy function, so that when the main communication line fails, the backup line can be automatically switched to ensure the continuity of data transmission.
The power supply is also redundantly designed, including the power supply, voltage regulator, battery backup and battery charger to ensure that the system can still operate normally in the event of a power failure. The redundancy of the central units (CPUs and memory) is based on a patented hot standby technology with a switchover time of less than 25 milliseconds, which enables almost seamless switchover, avoiding production interruptions due to controller failures and safeguarding the stability and reliability of industrial production.
Various housing specifications and mounting designs:
The Advant Controller 450 with local S100 I/O consists of one CPU rack and up to five I/O racks.
The S100 I/O can be distributed up to 500 metres away from the CPU rack via optical bus expansion technology, which effectively reduces the amount of field wiring, reduces wiring costs and complexity, and improves system scalability and flexibility.
The I/O racks are designed for ease of installation and maintenance and can be installed in cabinets with different levels of protection.
In high-temperature, humid or dusty industrial environments, sealed cabinets with heat exchangers can effectively protect the internal equipment and ensure stable operation of the controller.
Detailed technical parameters and software options: A wide range of power supply options are available, allowing users to choose the right type of power supply according to their actual needs, such as 24V DC, 24/48V DC (via isolated DC/DC converter), 120/230V AC (isolated), etc.
This flexibility allows the controller to adapt to different power supply environments.
