Overview

The SD Series HPC800 controller is a high-performance,

high-capacity process controller that is used to support

the plant’s total control requirements, from discrete and

continuous, to batch and advanced control applications.

The HPC800’s controller environment executes demanding

process control applications that are both data and program

intensive. Redundancy options are available at all levels

of control, I/O and communication, resulting in maximum

flexibility and availability.

Along with a range of I/O options, the HPC800 delivers

powerful, versatile and scalable automation solutions for

plant applications of all sizes.

Simultaneously, the HPC800 connects to DIN style I/O

modules and traditional Rack I/O modules. Intelligent I/O

devices such as smart transmitters, actuators, intelligent

electronic devices (IEDs), and third-party PLCs are easily

integrated through industry-standard fieldbuses and

networks. Each device’s resident information can be used

in control strategies and higher-level applications in order to

produce tighter and more reliable process control solutions.

The HPC800 controller uses ABB’s extensive set of

field-proven standard function code algorithms and

S+ Engineering’s graphical design tools to develop its control

strategies. By using the same function code algorithms as

previous generation Harmony and INFI 90 rack controllers,

the HPC800 supports the easy and risk-free re-use of time

tested, field proven control application solutions.
