ABB Symphony Plus SD Series HPC800 controller

wide variety of input/output and signal condition capabilities,

which in combination form the optimal automation solution.

Using standard function codes, the S+ Engineering Composer

tool is used to configure and maintain all HPC800 I/O

modules and channels.

Through a redundant I/O network, HN800, each HPC800

controller can communicate with up to 64 SD Series

I/O modules, SD Series PDP800 PROFIBUS modules, or

Harmony Rack RIO22 modules. Each PDP800 can drive

more than 1,500 S800 I/O modules over PROFIBUS DP V2,

while each RIO22 module can drive 64 Harmony Rack I/O

modules. All HPC800 I/O can be configured as either local I/O

or remote I/O or mixed. Remote I/O is communicated via a

fiber optic extension. Sequence of events (SOE) with 1 msec

timestamp resolution is available across the entire system.

In addition to traditional signal-type I/O, the HPC800 provides

for integrated turbine control via a series of turbine controlspecifi

c modules. These are available in either Harmony Rack

form or Symphony Plus DIN-rail form and include:

− Hydraulic Servo Module (HSS and VP800)

− Turbine Protection Module (TPS and TP800)

− Turbine Auto Synchronization Module (TAS and AS800)

− Condition Monitoring Module (CMM and MCM800)

Intelligent HART I/O

HPC800 controllers seamlessly integrate HART field

devices through the HAI805 and HAO805 HART modules.

This provides access to a wide range of intelligent field

devices including transmitters and actuators from ABB

and other vendors. Besides the 4-20 mA primary variable,

all secondary, tertiary and quaternary variables in a

HART device can be accessed by Function Code control

applications in the HPC800 controller. Real time use of this

data is practical because of the modules’ individual HART

modem per channel design. Data can be calculated, used as

part of a control strategy, or for display and alarm purposes

at the S+ Operations console.

HPC800 HART capabilities allow users to take full advantage

of their HART instrumentation investments. Too often smart

devices are under-utilized instruments because of the

limitations of the I/O system to accept the device’s information.

With SD Series HART modules, incorporation of the secondary

variables in control strategies can reduce the overall number

of fi eld devices and I/O channels required. Visibility of HART

diagnostic data at the system level reduces maintenance costs

through the proactive response to degrading performance of

fi eld devices before a failure occurs.

Device integration capability

The HPC800 controller architecture seamlessly integrates

intelligent fi eld devices and protocols using PROFIBUS DP,

HART, Modbus TCP, and IEC 61850. This provides access to a

wide range of intelligent fi eld devices from both ABB and other

third party vendors including transmitters, actuators, motor

control centers (MCC), fl ame scanners, IEDs, etc. Each device’s

resident information can then be used in control strategies and

higher level applications. In addition to producing tighter and

more reliable process control solutions, these solutions lower

installation costs by reducing wiring and system footprint.
