Compact control system replaces PLCs

Comfortable, more efficient integration of package units

using AC 700F

The AC 700F controller increases the scalability of the

compact control system Freelance 800F towards very

small applications  with only a few I/Os and closes the

gap between PLCs (programmable logic controllers)

and complex process control systems. It is suitable

for smallest applications with about 10 to 250 I/Os per

controller and thus opens up additional application areas

for the Freelance 800F control system, which is suitable

for both small and also medium-sized projects with sev

eral thousand signals. Comfortable, advanced functions

of control systems are now also available for very small

applications – and all at a very reasonable price. The

AC 700F controller offers a large number of advantages

compared to a standard PLC with visualization from third

party vendors. The projects on the following pages show

these advantages and the various application areas for

the AC 700F controller.

AC 700F

Thanks to the compact control system Freelance 800F and its

AC 700F controller it is now possible for smaller automation

solutions, which to date have been dominated by PLCs, to

benefit from the advantages of process control  systems,

particularly in the process industry. There is a wide range of

use in many industries including chemicals, petrochemicals,

oil and gas, metals, cement production, glass production, etc.

The AC 700F controller can be integrated into existing Freelance

800F systems in the same way as the AC 800F controller.

In contrast to PLCs, the AC 700F controller offers all of the

advantages of the compact control system. Important for

engineering and maintenance: A single engineering tool for

all tasks: Control Builder F.

DigiVis, the visualization tool, makes operation easy, structured

and intuitive. Pre-engineered components such as faceplates,

module diagnostics, event lists, the alarm line, trend displays

and automatically generated SFC (Sequential Function Chart)

displays play a key role in this regard. The use of predefined,

field proven libraries including faceplates significantly eases

the transparency, readability and adaptability of the application

and substantially increases security. The advanced diagnostic

options and improved alarm handling allows cost cutting in

the operation and maintenance phase and asset availability

can be enhanced. This substantially increases the economic

efficiency of the entire plant

Serial Communications Module

RS232

The Serial Communications Module provides a serial interface between the SC300E

environment and a variety of remote devices complying with the standard RS232-C.  At least

one Serial Communications Module must be used in the system and fitted in Slot 10 of the

main chassis to enable communications between the system processors and the

workstations.  The workstation link is used for loading the application software and monitoring

ladder and diagnostic functions.  The link utilises Port 0 of the module.  Additional modules can

be fitted to any other I/O slot, ‘wrong slotting’ is prevented by mechanical coding blocks (Figure

2-1 ).  The system software identifies the module via a built-in hardware identifier.

Circuit triplication and voting procedures make the module single fault tolerant and front panel

indicators show Tx/Rx activity, the circuit on-line status and the health of the module.

Communications connections are via four identical ports on the front panel (Ports 0 to 3) and

these connections are duplicated on the field connector (J2) at the rear.  A fifth port is for

diagnostic purposes only.  The module is compatible with ‘single slot hot repair’ and the front

panel has a switch to enable a request that the module be taken off line.

This document is intended to provide a general understanding of the function of Serial

Communications Module, sufficient to enable basic maintenance operations to be effected in

the field.

GB14048.6-2008.

IEC60947-1

EN60947-1

IEC60947-4-2

EN60947-4-2

UL508

CSA C22.2 No.14

LR Test specification No.1

For the protection of electrical equipment with semiconductor components in soft starters, the provisions of GB14048.6-2008 are as follows:

8.2.5 Coordination and cooperation with short-circuit protection devices

8.2.5.1 Performance under Short-circuit conditions

Two types of combinations are allowed:

Type 1 Coordination and cooperation: It is required that under short-circuit conditions, the electrical appliance should not cause harm to people or the equipment it is installed on. Before repair and replacement of parts, it is not allowed to continue to be used.

Type 2 (Type 2) Coordination and Cooperation: It is required that under short-circuit conditions, the electrical appliance should not cause harm to people or the equipment it is installed on, and can continue to be used.

Based on the protection characteristics and action times of different coordinated protection devices, the following protection can be achieved: – By using MCCB (i.e., molded case switch), type 1 coordinated protection can be realized. By adopting semiconductor protection fuses (i.e., fast fuses), type 2 coordinated protection can be achieved.

ABB recommends using Type 2 coordinated protection (i.e., semiconductor protection fuse) for the coordinated protection scheme of soft starters.

This kind of design feature.

Solutions to mechanical and electrical problems

The AC motor – known as the “industrial packhorse”, is used to drive fans and crush

Machines, mixers, water pumps, conveyor belts and other equipment. In production plants all over the world,

It often triggers unnecessary torque and current peaks, while causing losses in multiple aspects

Bad, including:

Electrical problem

The sudden changes in voltage and current generated during direct starting or star-delta starting bring about a large

Electrical issues with quantity. These mutation phenomena may cause the local power grid to overload and generate

Unacceptable voltage fluctuations that affect other devices connected to the power grid

Mechanical problems

The entire transmission chain (from the motor to the driven equipment) will be subjected to intense stress.

It causes a large amount of maintenance work and even parking accidents.

Operational issues

Such as the pressure in the pipeline, damaging the products on the conveyor belt, and causing people to ride up and down

The discomfort of the machine.

Water hammer effect and pipeline pressure fluctuation issues

Water hammer effect and pipeline pressure fluctuation problems often occur during the process of starting and stopping water pumps

It occurred during the process.

Behind every technical issue and malfunction, attention should be paid to the economic consequences caused by maintenance and production halts

Compensate for the losses.

A simple way to solve these problems is to install ABB’s PST(B) soft starter. Got it

ABB soft starters can smoothly start and stop motors to the greatest extent

Reduce mechanical and electrical shocks.

The PST(B) series is a microprocessor-based soft starter. This design applies the latest technology

Provide soft start and soft stop functions for the motor. The PST(B) soft starter is standard equipped with multiple precursors

Advanced motor protection function; The four-button keyboard and logically structured menu make it safe

PST bypass dedicated terminal block

PST soft starters can use or do not use bypass contactors for large specifications

PSTB370… The PSTB1050 soft starter is equipped with a bypass contactor inside.

In conventional starting applications (such as pumps, compressors, hydraulic lifts, handrails, etc.

Ladders, short-distance conveyor belts and bow thrusters, etc., can be adjusted according to the rated power of the motor

Choose the PST soft starter based on the rate.

For applications requiring heavy-load starting (such as fans, centrifuges, crushers, mixers, agitators)

For mixers and long-distance conveyor belts, ABB recommends that you choose a power larger than the rated power of the motor

5) In case of fire in the drive room:

• Observe the established rules and regulations for fire safety

• Only allow firefighters with the appropriate PPE to enter the drive room

2.3.2. The 7 steps that save lives

ABB’s 7 steps that save lives concept is a series of actions that must take place prior to

commencing work on or near electrical installations.

1) Prepare for the work: do an on-site risk assessment or job hazard analysis that

considers the limits of approach for shock and arc-flash.

• Be in possession of a clear work order to execute the work.

• When required, the access or work permit is to be obtained by a person who is

authorized for the specific electrical system.

• Engage the person responsible for electrical equipment or system to review single

line diagrams, schematics, switching plans, etc.

• Ensure the competence of workers.

• Check for proper tools for the job.

• Determine and select the proper arc-rated Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

• Decide of the appropriate work methods and initiate the Permit To Work (PTW)

process.

2) Clearly identify the work location and equipment.

• Use your senses (sight, hearing and smell) to identify problem areas.

• Define the work area via barriers and barricading and label equipment.

• Avoid distractions such as talking or texting on the phone.

3) Disconnect all sources of supply and secure against reconnection by applying

Lockout/Tagout.

• If ABB is responsible for switching and it cannot be done remotely, then the person

performing the switching must be properly trained and wearing the proper PPE

identified in step 1.

• The Person in Charge of Work (PICW) must ensure that switching is performed in the

proper manner by witnessing it from a safe distance if present on site or by engaging

the person responsible for switching to identify all isolation points.

• Apply Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) to the energy isolation device and if multiple energy

isolation devices are involved, then Group LOTO must be implemented with the PICW

serving as the Group LOTO Leader.

4) Verify the absence of operating voltage: always test before you touch!

Only use properly rated and inspected voltage detection devices and wear proper PPE

identified in step 1:

• Test voltage detection device

• Test for voltage

• Test voltage detection device

It is highly important that the voltage detection device is tested on a known voltage

source such as a Proving Unit or by performing an internal self-test, according to the

manufacturer’s instructions, before and after testing for the absence of operating

voltage
