ABB PM865K01 3BSE031151R1 Processor Unit
ABB PM865K01 3BSE031151R1 Safety CPU modules that can be activated by abb as both a safety controller and a safety device. These modules, when used with abb’s AC500/AC500-S programmable logic controllers (PLCs), feature the ability to use ProFINET/PERISAFE shared device functionality to exchange process and safety data not only from one controller to multiple devices, but also from one device to multiple controllers. Hybrid interconnected PLC control systems can extend traditional centralised or distributed control. As a result, each controlled machine can provide process and safety data in real time and simultaneously to several central control systems. With this solution, up to 1440 bytes of process data, including up to 384 bytes of functional safety data, can be distributed to four PLC control systems. ABB’s modular approach allows a complex system to be divided into different tasks, such as a central control for production and storage handling or a console for automation and manual operation. Data can be shared in real time from the machine to the different central PLC controllers.
abb’s solutions use communication modules as add-ons for process and safety data exchange, allowing flexible modification of existing systems through controller and/or device expansion. In distributed control where data flows from one system to another, the control logic is distributed throughout the facility, which improves the performance of the entire system. The control methodology allows such systems to be optimised so that all the required control and safety data is available at a given time. These PLC modules are targeted at system integrators that are building complex installations that require flexible control systems in a variety of industrial applications. Typical applications include remote control of machinery and equipment in ports, airports, distribution centres and manufacturing facilities. In these industries, control systems are often modified or updated to allow production changes or expansions to the facility. During such upgrades or maintenance, central control systems are required. These may be manual locations with remote control access for unexpected events. Each machine can now transmit process and safety data in real time and simultaneously to several central control stations, as well as to special control systems. For example, condition monitoring devices can now provide safety on board ships by analysing the status of brakes on automatically guided vehicles. The modular architecture allows existing control systems to be extended with communication controllers and device functions. In addition, safety controllers can reuse standard controller communication interfaces.
