ABB PM866 3BSE050200R1 Industrial Control Module

Product Description

The ABB PM866 3BSE050200R1 is the central processing unit (CPU) module for the ABB AC 800M controller family, the core component of the ABB System 800xA distributed control system (DCS). The module is the brains of complex industrial automation and control applications.

Main functions and uses:

• High-Performance Processor: The PM866 is equipped with a high-performance industrial-grade processor (Intel Atom D2701 in some sources) capable of processing large amounts of data and executing complex control algorithms. This ensures efficient and fast response to system commands and control tasks.
• Industrial Automation Control: It is designed to meet the needs of complex control and automation applications in a wide range of industries such as power generation, oil and gas, chemical processing and manufacturing.
• System 800xA Integration: The PM866 is an integral part of the ABB 800xA system, providing powerful processing for its advanced control strategies.
• Redundancy support: An important feature is its support for CPU redundancy. This means that two PM866 modules can be configured to run in parallel, providing a hot standby solution. If one CPU fails, the other will seamlessly take over, ensuring high availability and continuous operation, which is critical in process control environments.
• Communication Interfaces:
  Ethernet Ports (RJ-45): It includes two embedded 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet ports for connection to the control network. These ports support protocols such as MMS (Manufacturing Information Services) and IAC (Inter-Application Communication).Serial Port (RJ-45): It also has two serial ports. One is a typical RS-232C port with modem control signals and the other is an isolated port usually used for configuration tools.
• CEX Bus: The module provides a Communication Expansion (CEX) bus that allows the connection of a variety of expansion modules for use with different fieldbus and I/O systems, thus enhancing the connectivity and expandability of the module.
• Memory: Typically includes RAM for program execution and data, as well as non-volatile flash memory for firmware and application storage (typically supported by the CompactFlash interface).
• Modularity and Expandability: As part of the AC 800M series, the PM866 is a rail-mounted module with a modular design for easy expansion and adaptation to changing process requirements.
• Ruggedized design: It features IP20-rated protection (no additional enclosure required) and full EMC certification for demanding industrial environments.
• Control Capability: It supports advanced control strategies such as cascade, feed-forward, decoupling, adaptive and predictive control, and has a rich set of control algorithms with integrated continuous, sequential and batch control functions.

ABB PM866 3BSE050200R1 is a high-performance, reliable and redundant CPU module that serves as the foundation for ABB’s advanced industrial automation and control systems, ensuring efficient and continuous operation in critical applications.
