ABB AC 800PEC The high-performance control system for model-based design
Can you imagine a process with a cycle time of less than 100 μs?
We can – and we’ve built the AC 800PEC to achieve it
High-performance applications with extremely fast control
algorithms – cycle times that range from 100 microseconds
for fast control loops to seconds for long-term operational
transients – require specialized control devices.
That is why we have designed the AC 800PEC, extending the
capabilities of ABB’s well-known ControlIT automation
technology to handle the very high-speed algorithms of
processes such as power electronics applications. We’ve
even gone a step further: now, a single processor unit
combines these high-speed controls with the low-speed
process control tasks usually carried out by separate PLC units.
To facilitate the implementation of control algorithms, the AC
800PEC can be programmed using MATLAB® / Simulink® –
the code is automatically generated from the model and can
be downloaded without manual interaction.
Embedded into a robust and flexible system structure with
integrated standard communication, the AC 800PEC is
unique in the field of industrial process controllers.
