Key Features
|
Real-time Control, I/O Management, Redundancy, Network Integration
|
Features:
- Real-Time Control: Executes complex PID, sequential, and logic control algorithms.
- Dual-CPU Redundancy: Automatic failover for high-availability systems (requires paired CMUs).
- Multi-Network Support: Integrates with MasterBus 300 (MB300), Ethernet TCP/IP (via gateway), and S100 I/O bus.
- I/O Subsystem Management: Controls ABB S800 I/O modules (analog/digital) via S100 bus.
- Hot-Swappable: Modules replaceable without system shutdown (redundant setups).
- Diagnostic Capabilities: LED status indicators for CPU, memory, comms, and faults.
- Firmware Flexibility: Field-upgradable OS and application software.
Function/Role:
Serves as the core processing unit of Advant OCS, handling real-time control tasks, data acquisition from I/O subsystems, and communication with HMI/SCADA systems or higher-level networks.
Purpose:
To provide reliable, high-speed automation control for critical industrial processes while ensuring fault tolerance through redundancy and robust diagnostics.
Applications & Use Cases:
- Process Control: Continuous control (e.g., refining, chemical reactions, pulp/paper).
- Power Generation: Boiler control, turbine sequencing, BOP (Balance of Plant) systems.
- Oil & Gas: Pipeline monitoring, compressor control, offshore platform automation.
- Water/Wastewater: Pump station control, chemical dosing, filtration.
- Manufacturing: Batch processing, material handling, quality control.
Application Fields:
- Chemical/Petrochemical Plants
- Power Plants (Thermal, Hydro, Nuclear)
- Oil & Gas Production/Refining
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
- Food & Beverage Processing
