ABB 800xA
Product Overview
ABB’s System 800xA is a versatile and robust automation platform designed to enhance both the control and flexibility of various industrial applications. Through utilizing the AC 800M controller combined with a wide array of communication and I/O options, System 800xA is able to offer a modular approach that ensures commonality of features and functionality across its portfolio. The innovative design and advanced features make it an ideal choice for industries seeking to improve operational efficiency, reliability, and scalability.
The System 800xA Distributed Control System (DCS) is equally as effective for small, hybrid systems as for large, high-availability, integrated process automation applications. This is due to the modularity of the subsystem (AC 800M) providing a high return on assets by providing the flexibility to choose the specific functionality needed to meet actual on-site requirements. For harsh environments, all modules are compliant to G3 severity level of ISA-S71.04, Environmental Conditions for Process Measurement and Control Systems.
ABB Ability™ System 800xA® has a wide variety of communication interfaces and support for the most common fieldbuses such as FF, Profibus, HART and IEC61850. With the advantage of Ethernet-based communication interfaces, smart devices can be efficiently integrated into a control system with minimal wiring.
Cross Company is proud to partner with ABB to provide high-quality, reliable DCS solutions for process operations or applications. Contact our DCS and PLC experts to learn more.
Features and Benefits of System 800xA
There are many reasons that industrial process operations choose to utilize ABB’s System 800xA DCS for plant control.
