The new AC500 ABB PLC consists of different devices that can be combined and flexibly expanded to suit the customer's individual requirements. It is also possible, for instance, to operate several field buses simultaneously in any desired combination with a single control system. Customers can choose between different CPU performance classes, which can even be easily replaced subsequently to meet increasing requirements. The common engineering tool ABB PLC AC500 Control Builder provides standardized programming of the entire platform according to IEC 61131-3, as well as further features and utilities.

If you are searching for ABB Programmable Logic Controllers technical information (data-sheets) please use the ABB Controls Datasheets or Product Selection Guide page links.

Besides the high performance capabilities of the system regarding handling, reliability and ease of maintenance, also the long-term availability of the chosen system plays a decisive role: Your safe investment must be ensured in future. With the new ABB PLC AC500, ABB Low Voltage Controls offers a modern high-performance platform which is suitable for future-oriented automation concepts and open for new trends and market requirements. Flexibility in the choice of a field bus without needing to replace any field devices: That's the basic idea behind the field bus plug (FBP).

ABB offers a complete range of low-voltage devices from one source: PLC, devices for switching and protection, such as Soft Starters, Contactors, and Circuit-Breakers, up to standard Sensors. Many of these ABB components have already been integrated into the innovative system concept involved. Examples here include the UMC22-FBP Universal Motor Controller for effective motor protection and particularly user-friendly motor control, the interactive circuit breakers Tmax T4, T5, the PSS soft starter and the Wireless Proximity Switch. With the AC500 ABB PLC, the FBP product range has been extended by field-bus-neutral I/O modules and a CPU which can also be used as a field bus slave via the FBP.

With the integrated built-in I/O and communication couplers, ABB AC31 Advant Controller is a competitive solution in the minimum of space. The range is based on 2 main CPU types : Low end 40&50 series CPU's with 14 built in I/O, expandable locally with up to 6 I/O extensions or expandable through the fieldbus bus CS31 with remote I/O, 24VDC, 120VAC or 230VAC power supply, Powerful 90 series CPU's with up-to 40 built-in I/O expandable through the field bus CS31 with remote I/O, built in communication protocol like PROFIBUS DP master/slave, DeviceNet, Ethernet, ARCNET, 24VDC Power Supply.

A slot ABB PLC with CS31 fieldbus bus interface and ARCNET allows a fast response time between the embedded PLC program and the PC application through internal RAM. A Profibus DP or DeviceNet boards can be connected. ASCII, MODBUS master/slave, modem communication are integrated in all types of CPU's. All products are approved from the main register of shipping societies.

AC31 ABB Advant Controller provides an extensive selection of efficient hardware for both machine and system construction in the form of central units as well as digital and analogue I/O modules. ABB AC31 provides industries with appropriate solutions in power-related grades which are adapted to different focal points of the application and therefore allow for cost-effective use in all cases. An AC31 central unit can e. g. be operated as a standalone device as well as a master or slave. And regardless of whether an automation solution covers just a few I/O signals or requires a signal scope of several 100 or 1000 inputs/outputs, the ABB AC31 Advant Controller is always the right choice. Some of the AC31 central units also provide the opportunity of saving user programs or data on a plug-type Smart Media card and loading this in the automation device.

Ready-to-go preassembled Entrelec connector interfaces modules for interfacing your ABB PLC to control equipment. Select 8, 16, or 32 channel Entrelec connector interface modules with single to four wire circuits. Entrelec interface modules available with features to enhance your design including fuses, switches, plugs, and test points. ABB Entrelec connector interfaces are available with screw clamp, spring connection, or insulation displacement.

Communication-friendly, uniquely flexible, exceptionally future-compatible - a short, succinct description of ABB's new, innovative remote I/O system S500. By selecting the appropriate field-bus-plug (FBP), this field-bus-neutral system can be simply connected to the desired field bus. The compact-size bus module already contains 16 digital I/Os, and can be linked up to a maximum of seven expansion modules, enabling it to be upgraded to as many as 240 I/Os. Analog and digital modules can be mixed without any problems.

The FBP Bus Module possesses 16-I/Os in a width of only 67.5 mm. The compact construction, plus its overall depth of only 75 mm, means substantial space savings in the control cubicle. With its versatile flexibility, its extensive diagnostic capabilities and its simple expansion options, the S500 provides its users with a powerful, costefficient configuration, one that can be conveniently customised at need to the particular applications involved.

CL range logic relays are suitable for small and medium-sized control tasks and are able to substitute logic wiring in a quick and simple manner. They can be used for applications in control as well as for timing functions, e. g.

• In buildings, lighting systems, air-conditioning systems, general control functions
• In small machines and systems or as stand-alone control module for small applications.

The Control Builder AC500 is the engineering tool for all CPU performance classes of the AC500, designed for standardized IEC 61131-3 programming in five different languages. Other features of this tool are: Configuration of the overall system including field buses and interfaces, extensive diagnostic functions, alarm handling, integrated visualization and open software interfaces.

• Programming in conformity with IEC 61131-3
• Offline simulation
• Sampling trace
• Recipe management and watch lists
• Visualization

The Entrelec Logotron product family includes programmable electronic control and Logic Relays with built-in logic, timer, Counter, and switching functions. Used in place of Relays, Timers, Contactor controls, and more, these modules increase design and programming efficiency for small and medium size control tasks. The AC or DC units include signal links plus a broad range of timing functions used in applications ranging from building automation to industrial control/switching.

Use Entrelec Fieldbus Modules with I/O modules to control remote I/O locations. Available to interface with popular bus systems such as PROFIBUS, INTERBUS, DeviceNet, CANopen, Modbus, and Schiele E/A-Bus. Change bus protocols by changing fieldbus modules without rewiring the I/Os.

These SCHIELE digital I/Os process binary signals and send them to the CPU or fieldbus modules. Digital I/Os convert signals from the CPU or fieldbus modules to control actuators. Analog input I/Os accept V, I, and thermocouple or RTD signals. Output modules supply standard V and I process signals. Thermal/RTD units have full selection of temperature ranges.

Add CPU S 200 or S 250 to Entrelec I/O modules to create this powerful Micro PLC. Full system integration including an operator terminal and power supply. Control up to 96 digital I/Os or 16 analog I/Os, and up to four PID loops. Starter kits available with full instruction sets.

Entrelec remote I/O modules feature a building block concept for remote bus interface. The main terminal block, with plug-in electronic modules, is compatible with major bus systems. Module terminal strips accommodate 2 or 3-wire field devices with 4th wire option.
