Get more done better with Advant Controller 400 series

Get more done better with Advant Controller 400 series StepUp is program of ABB’s for upgrading older process control equipment to the latest Advant OCS solutions at particularly favorable terms. The theme of the program varies from time to time; this time the turn has come to users of MasterPiece 200⁄1 controllers to upgrade to the latest Advant Controller 400 series process controllers, at substantially reduced prices. You gain performance; Count on three to five times the speed of your current machine(s) (vs. Advant Controller 450) and multiple amounts of more memory. Higher processing speed and more memory means more work done faster, as well as more space for trend data storage. You gain functionality; Advant Controller 400 series offers a number of important functional improvements, e.g.: • Support for a number of new, popular communication protocols, e.g. Advant Fieldbus 100. Profibus DP, LONWorks and Allen-Bradley’s DF1. These make your new controllers able to use ABB’s new S800 I⁄O system and easily able to communicate, with other external controllers, with ABB’s vari able speed motor drives and with smart motor-control centers.

• More backup redundancy available, e.g.:- Smarter solution to CPU redundancy, eliminating critical, common, compo nents,- Full dual redundancy, covering, media and communication in inter faces, for S100 I/O and Advant Fieldbus 100. • A self-tuning, adaptive process control ler (AC 450) that makes short work out of setting up control loops accurately and responsively, even in difficult applications. • Fuzzy logic control, a control method based on degrees of truths as opposed to conventional binary logic that only recognizes two states: true or false. A control strategy that is often able to untangle elegantly control problems that are difficult to solve in other ways. • Windows NT-based engineering tool, You save money; StepUp includes: • attractive prices on controller cabinets with all the hardware and software required.

• further savings on future software upgrades by subscription to the ABB Software Advancement Program (de scribed further on). Left: Advant Controller 450 with local S100 I/O. The use of separate connection units for the process cabling simplifies cable marshalling and keeps destructive voltage spikes away from the central electronics Right: The S800 I/O system communicates over Advant Fieldbus 100 or Profibus DP with its parent AC 400 series controller. The units of the system are small enough and rugged enough to be installed in the field. Upgrading: as easy as ABC Advant Controller 400 series machines are 19″ rack-based like its predecessors.

They are also compatible with existing S100 local I/O and S400 remote I/O. And finally, they run AMPL programs just like their forerunners do, only better. Consequently, the stage is set for the smoothest possible change-over. Simply, disconnect your existing controller from the surrounding world, remove the con troller rack from the cabinet it is installed in, install the new controller, put all cables back on, upload your existing application software and switch on. From then on you are ready to start taking advantage of the additional functionality and processing power that Advant Controller 400 series offers. So far, hundreds of step-ups to the AC 400 series have already been made, confirming this simplicity. Says Hans Nilsson, instru mentation and control manager at the LKAB Malmberget mining company in Northern Sweden in confirmation: “Thanks to good planning we were able to complete the entire upgrade during our regular summer shutdown. In a single day, we were able to replace three controllers, including replacing controller cabinets and verifying the application software.

Description

The TZiDCis anelectronicallyconfigurable positioner with

communication capabilities designed for mounting to pneumatic

linear or rotary actuators. lt features a small and compact design, a

modular construction, and an excellent cost-performance ratio.

Fully automatic determination of the control parameters and

adaptation to the final control element yield considerable time savings

and an optimal conirol behavior.

1.1

Pneumatics

An |/P module with subsequent pneumatic amplifier is used to control

the pneumatic actuator. The well-proven IP module proportionally

converts the permanent electrical positioning signal from the CPl

into a pneumatic sianal used to adjust a 3/3-way valve.

The air flow for pressurizing or depressurizing the acuator is

continuously adiusted,As a result, excellent control is achieved

When reaching the set point, the 3/3-way valve is closed in centei

position to minimize the air consumption.

Four different pneumatics versions are available: for single-acting or

double-acting actuators, each with “fail-safe” or “fail-freeze” function.

1.1.2

*Fail-freeze* function

lf the electrical power supply should fail, the positioner output i (and

2.if applicable)is closed and the pneumatic actuator stops

“freezes”)the valve in the current position. lf compressed air supply

should fail.the positioner depressurizes the actuator.

1.2

Operation

The positioner has a built-in operating panel providing a 2-ine LCD

and 4 pushbuttons for optimal local configuration, commissioning ano

operational monitorng.

Alternatively, the appropriate configuration program and the available

communication option can be used.

1.3

Communication

The standard TZlDC model has a local communication interface (LKS

connector).Additionally,aHART communication”option fo

communication via the20mAsignal is available. Both

communications are based on the HART Protocol.

“Fail-safe* function

If the electrical power supply fails,the positioner output 1 is

depressurized, and the pneumatic actuator’s return spring moves the

valve to the defined safe position. in case of a double-acting actuatoi

the second output 2 is additionally pressurized

1.4

Inputs and outputs

In addition to its input for the analog position set point the TZlDC

positioner is equipped with a digital input which can be used to

activate various protective functions in the device via the process

control system. A diqital output allows you to output collective alarms

or fault messages.

1.5

Modular design

The TZlDC basic model can be enhanced at any time by retrofitting

optional equipment. Option modules for analog or digital position

feedback or a shutdown-module can be installed. Additionally, a

mechanical positionindicator,proximity switches or24 v

microswitches are available for indicating the position independently

of the mother board function.

ABB’s innovative MNS iS concept combines the long term experience, energy efficiency, grid reliability and industrial productivity of the well known MNS system with advanced design in hardware and software technologies.

Scope of supply

ABB S.p.A. (Italy), in cooperation with Lee Engineering &

Construction Co (Nigeria) and Franzisella S.p.A. (Italy), is

supplying a fully integrated solution for the WAGP (West

African Gas Pipeline) project in Nigeria.

The two WAGP Gas Compressor Stations in Utorogu and

Oben are based on the latest ABB MNS iS technology

installed into prefabricated E-houses.

The ABB MNS iS is the right solution to comply with the high

level of integration and compactness requested for the WAGP

Utorogu and Oben Gas Compressor Stations.

The ABB MNS iS Power and Motor Control Centers for the

WAGP project are fully integrated with the station DCS via

serial link (Profibus DP protocol) and are built in compliance

with Shell DEP standards

Plant description

Results and customer’s benefits

Pipelines are the most efficient way to distribute gas and

cover big distances especially in location with critical

environmental conditions like deserts, glaciers, high

mountains. To keep pressure and temperature of gas at the

right level, Gas Compressor Stations are present and placed

at 10 to 150 Km intervals along the pipeline. The low voltage

MCC is one of the most important and critical component of

those compressor stations.

The ABB intelligent MCC

The project includes four ABB MNS iS Power and Motor

Control Centers for a total of over 50 sections and 160

feeders in all kind of configurations, from the Direct On Line

starters to the highest version of the ABB softstarters. In

order to optimize the E-house layouts two of the ABB MNS iS

where provided in back to back configuration granting a more

efficient footprint.

MNS iS is the latest evolution of the ABB Low Voltage Power

and Motor Control Center: the “Intelligent switchgear”.

The MNS iS intelligence is guaranteed by the complete

integration and harmonization of all the different control,

protection and data processing functions into the MNS iS

concept.

The MNS iS network is based on distributed microprocessor

modules (MControl) connected through a serial gateway

interface (MLink) to a local Human System Interface (MView)

and to higher level systems.- MControl: the microprocessor unit performs all the

protection control and monitoring functions and grants

connection to and from each single feeder or motor unit.- MLink: the MNS iS interface module grants connectivity

from the local control modules to any higher system and

to the local Human System Interface.- MView: a local Human System Interface based on touch

screen technology providing easy access to all kind of

data and control functions.

The use of the programmable microprocessor based

technology in conjunction with a strong focus on the design

optimization grant an overall reduction of the control and

power components with the advantage of reducing potential

point of failure and spare parts

ABB MNS iS Motor Control Center System Release V6.0

MNS iS as part of the ABB Low Voltage

Switchgear solution uses the well proven ABB

MNS standard design aspects.  MNS aspects

described in this section are fully applicable to

MNS iS.

MNS system is a verified design in accordance

with IEC61439-1/-2.

The consistent application of the modular

principle both in electrical and mechanical design

as well as the use of standardized components

allows its flexible and compact design.

Depending on operating and environmental

conditions different design levels are offered.

1.1.1

Functional separation

The switchboard is divided into vertical and

horizontal compartments thus separating different

functional areas.

Notable system advantages with regard to

design aspects:

Compact, space-saving design

Easy project and detail engineering

through standardised components

Verified design acc.  IEC 61439-1/-2

Earthquake-, vibration- and shock-proof

designs are available

Easy retrofitting without the need for

switchgear de-energizing

Maintenance-free busbar construction

High operational reliability and availability

Optimum personal protection

As even power cabling and control wiring are

strictly separated within MNS iS, the switch

board is structured as follows:

1.  Equipment compartment

All equipment, including the standard motor

starter modules MStart or feeder modules

MFeed in withdrawable design, is situated

therein.  The compartment can be divided in

horizontal and vertical sub compartments.

2.  Control cable compartment

Contains the integrated control devices

MControl, control cables and terminals.

3.  Power cable compartment

Contains power cables and connection units.

4.  Busbar compartment

Contains the MNS main busbar system and

distribution bars.  The distribution bars are

embedded in the Multifunction Separation Wall

(MFW) which is located between the Equipment

compartment and the Busbar compartment

Access to integrated components such as

electronic protection relays on standard

switchgear is usually not possible if the module is

energized.

As an outstanding attribute MNS iS switchgear

provides separate compartments, one for power

cables on the right hand and another for control

cables on the left hand. The two cable compart

ments can be provided with different key locks in

order to assure specific access rights.

MNS iS motor/feeder cables are housed in their

own power cable compartment completely isol

ated from any control equipment or wiring. The

cubicle arrangements are configured suitable for

front cable access.

The power cable compartment can be provided

with cable entry from the top or bottom of the

cubicle.

The control cables have their own control cable

compartment completely segregated from the

power compartments.

This control compartment also houses the

integrated motor control units MControl and other

associated control equipment.

The control wiring can enter from the top or

bottom as required for the project. External

signals (such as pushbuttons, indicators etc.)

connect directly to the MControl main board.

Introduction

The system interface MLink is an industrial PC equipped with interface cards and ports required

for communication internally to MControl and externally to process control systems

Figure 1 MLink

One MLink can communicate internally with up to 60 MControl.  If more than 60 MControl are

required, then additional MLinks have to be used

Hardware Types and Technical Data

The configuration of MLink depends on the selected communication protocol to the DCS.

Following communication interface protocols are available:

· PROFIBUS DP (-V0) and PROFIBUS DP-V1

· MODBUS RTU / TCP

· PROFINET IO

1TGE120021

The PROFINET interface is supported for use with the ABB 800xA System only

System functions such as MLink web interface (MView), OPC connectivity and time stamp are

possible with all MLink types.

For communication to MControl a dedicated interface plug (switchgear bus connector) has to be

used dependent on system configuration (redundant, non redundant system).

Software Modules

MLink contains different software modules depending on its initial configuration.  The software

modules are available on request.

Following software modules are available:

· Web Server

· OPC Server (DA & AE)

· Fieldbus

· Time Synchronization

· Redundant Operation

If a specific module is not available on the MLink, please contact your local ABB LVS Sales

organization should this be required.

Web Server

A Web Server can be activated inside MLink.  Through network connection web interface

information can be displayed on MView or a PC using web browser software.  For details about

Web Interface see the document:

MNS iS Interface Manual Web Interface.

OPC Server

With MNS iS an OPC Server (DA & AE) is available.  The software is typically installed on a

server as part of the automation control system.   The software installation program is delivered

separately.   If activated, the MLink functions as a data provider for the MNS iS OPC Server.  For

details about OPC Server see the document:

MNS iS Interface Manual OPC Server.

Fieldbus

MLink can include Fieldbus communication to DCS.  The type of Fieldbus must be selected

before ordering the MLink type.  The Fieldbus specific information (PROFIBUS, MODBUS etc.)

can be found in the following documents:

1.5 Cyber Security

Following cyber security-based recommendations must be considered using MService device in an in

dustrial Ethernet network environment:

• MService shall be connected to an isolated network in general.  If MService is connected to a

plant network a firewall shall be considered to control access to MService web-based user inter

face.

• Insertion of a USB drive / pen-drive / stick into a USB port of MService shall be prevented at any

time except connecting an external hard-disk for data backup purpose.  Inserting a faulty USB

drive (e.g. with faulty USB-HID(*) descriptor) can lead to a stop of MService functionality.  In such

a case MService will not record any data from connected field devices any longer and a device

reboot is required.

To prevent an unrestricted access to the USB ports of MService USB Port Locks shall be used.

These port locks reduce the risk of data leakage, data theft and unauthorized uploads with a

software-free solution that physically blocks USB ports from unauthorized access.  There’s even

an option to block multiple adjacent ports with one lock and allow continued secure use of au

thorized USB devices.

• User must log-off from MService when leaving the workplace to prevent another person using

the active login account.  The log-off button must be used in this case as closing the Web

browser will not terminate the active web-session.

2 System Overview

2.1 Product Concept

The MService device implements an innovative approach to condition monitoring: The supervision of

the performance and health status of a MNS and MNS iS switchgear are made possible with a small

scale and easy-to-use embedded industrial PC.

The MService implements the whole condition monitoring concept from collecting field level real-time

data to performing assessment algorithms.  Based on that, it is possible to work out a prognosis of

developing situations and prompting the operator for action.  However, if the situation continues and

results in a tripping or failure, the MService offers clear diagnosis for fast problem resolution.

2.2 Supported Functions

MService Condition Monitoring covers the following main functions:

• Collection of operational data of the supervised modules

• Collection of all alarms and trips generated in the supervised modules

• Collection of maintenance warnings derived from additional assessment logic related to the su

pervised modules.

• Display of the MNS or MNS iS system structure highlighting modules signaling problems

• Display of historical data in trend displays

• Detailed information on the identification, location, and type of supervised modules

• Online supervision of temperature or power loss related problems within individual cubicles.

MService can supervise all modules in MNS and MNS iS, which are connected to the internal switchgear

communication bus. This includes:

• Motor starter and feeder modules (all sizes), which are equipped with measuring and communi

cation electronic device MControl

• Motor starter and feeder modules (all sizes), which are equipped with intelligent device, UMC

and M10x, communicates to MLink.

• Circuit breakers connected to the switchgear communication with the interface MConnect

• Circuit breakers connected to the switchgear communication with the interface MLink

Excluded from supervision in MService are all modules not connected to the internal switchgear com

munication such as MSpeed (Variable Speed drives in MNS iS) and conventional modules.

1. General

GENERAL

1.1. Target Group

The MNS Digital Edge device is the hardware platform for ABB Ability™ Condition Monitor

ing for electrical systems (in the following ‘CMES’).

Audiences of this manual are service technicians and switchgear operators on site.

This document describes the communication and user interfaces of the MNS Digital Edge de

vice and CMES.

2. Introduction

This document provides an introduction on how to setup or change login credentials for the

user management of the CMES.

2.1. Default settings

The MNS Digital Edge is provided from ABB with the custom specific project installed. Within

project specification the customer defines the number of users which have access to CMES

and the respective user roles. In this case ABB will set-up the CMES with the agreed user ac

counts. After delivery it’s mandatory to change at least the user passwords.

In case the users and roles are not defined from project, 2 default users are installed:

Administrator and Operator.

This is also valid when the MNS Digital Edge is ordered as spare part.

Default login credentials are:

Administrator

User name:

Password:

Operator

User name:

Password:

EdgeGwAdmin

PleaseChangeMe

EdgeGwUser

PleaseChangeMe

For cyber security reason, it’s mandatory to change the password after installation of the

MNS Digital Edge.

ABB will take no liability caused by using the default passwords.

Please contact your IT department about details of password management and cyber secu

rity measures in your company. A process for regular update of anti-virus software needs to

be implemented.

By default, the Windows Defender is installed and activated. Please ensure to update the Win

dows OS and the anti-virus software on regular basis.

3. Configuring the User Management for

the CMES

This chapter explains possible adaptions of the user management for users of the pre-in

stalled MNS Digital Edge:

• Create a new user

• Adding a new user

• Changing users

• Changing passwords by Windows remote desktop application.

3.1. Creating a New User for CMES

To create a new user, you have to login as administrator. The following steps are describing

the workflow how to create a new user with the role “operator”. An operator has the permis

sions to acknowledge alarms. It is also described how to give a user the role “Read Only” at

the crucial steps. This user has no permission to acknowledge alarms.
