Symphony® Plus is the next generation of ABB’s acclaimed Symphony family of centralised control systems.

There are more than 6.500 Symphony centralised control systems in operation around the world, including more than 4.500 in the power and water industries.

No other automation platform in power and water applications has such a long history and large installed base as Symphony.

For more than 30 years, ABB has evolved the Symphony family of products, ensuring that each generation enhances the capabilities of its predecessor.

and backward compatible with its predecessor, all in line with ABB’s long-held policy of ‘evolving, never outdated’.

Symphony Plus includes a complete set of standards-based control hardware and software for plant-wide automation requirements.

The SD series PROFIBUS interface PDP800 provides the connection between the Symphony Plus controller and the PROFIBUS DP communication channel.

This allows easy integration of intelligent devices such as smart transmitters, actuators and intelligent electronic devices (IEDs).

The information resident in each device can be used for control strategies and higher-level applications.

In addition to providing a tighter, more reliable process control solution, the PDP800 PROFIBUS solution reduces installation costs by reducing cabling and system footprint.

System costs can be further reduced by using S+ Engineering to configure and maintain the PROFIBUS network, devices and their associated control strategies.
