Personnel and Process Safety Safety Summary
Personnel and Process Safety

TAKE CARE AT ALL TIMES – This will prevent accidents from occurring and
help protect valuable equipment.
A control system is a tool used to control various processes. Responsibility for

attaining and maintaining a satisfactory level of safety rests with the personnel who
engineer, operate and maintain the equipment. It is important to have an intimate
knowledge of all control functions, the inherent safety risks that may be involved in
the process, and to possess the imaginative ability to anticipate situations in which
accidents may occur.
The following Safety Instructions must be observed:
• Take care when:
– fitting or removing units
– connecting or disconnecting cables
– resetting or switching units to manual operation
• The AC 800M Controller system must be shut down before carrying out the
above.
• Never connect the equipment to the mains power supply during installation
work.
• Take extreme care when connecting the system to the mains power supply.
Injury or death can be the result of incorrect procedures.
• Ensure that all personnel operating or maintaining the installation know the
exact location of and how to operate the equipment isolating safety switch and
the mains power supply isolating switch.
• When the process sub-sections have been checked and a test run has been
performed, a person responsible must check the interlocking chains etc. All
concerned personnel must be fully informed regarding test runs to be
performed.
• Process technicians are to be present when testing and operating process
objects.
22 3BSE 027 941 R301

Safety Summary Personnel and Process Safety
• Never activate any System Initialization push-button if any uncertainty exists

regarding exactly what occurs within the system during initialization.
ALWAYS CHECK FIRST.
• Remember at all times, that the control system can be controlled from a remote
engineering station, connected at another node via Control Network.
• Remember, the AC 800M Controller will start automatically when voltage is
applied.
The level of safety can be improved considerably by taking steps to bring the
process to a safe state should power supplies, communication links or parts of the
control system fail. Such steps may require, for example, the installation of valves
or relays that automatically return to a fail-safe position.
3BSE 027 941 R301 23

Machine Safety Safety Summary
Machine Safety
The following safety rules must be observed at all times:
• To avoid discharging static electricity, ground both yourself and any tools
before handling printed circuit boards and other sensitive pieces of the
equipment
• All electronic devices are sensitive to ESD (electrostatic discharge). To avoid
accidental damage while handling printed circuit boards, it is recommended to
wear a wrist strap, grounded to the chassis. The strap must have a built-in
protective resistor
• Anti-static, conductive plastic bags must be used for storage and transport of
PC boards in transit.
Before replacing I/O Units

All procedures for replacing I/O units can be located by referring to the relevant I/O
documentation.
Removing or replacing I/O units with system power connected can cause injury to
personnel and damage to equipment. It is, therefore, of the utmost importance that
the power supply be fully disconnected, on the process side, before removal or
insertion of I/O units takes place
Maintenance
It is recommended that a stock of suitable spare components be maintained to avoid
system downtime.
Ensure that back-up copies of the current application program are made at regular,
predetermined intervals to avoid system downtime.
24 3BSE 027 941 R301

Safety Summary Operating Environment
Operating Environment
Before the AC 800M Controller system is brought online, investigate which
environmental conditions are applicable. Take note in particular of the following:
• The controller must not be exposed to conditions that exceed the values given
in the relevant technical specifications.
• The controller must not be used in an environment exposed to strong electrical
interference. Electrical machines can produce interference that exceeds levels
permitted for the equipment, for example during repair work.
• All products must be handled with appropriate precautions with regard to
electrostatic damage.
• The controller must not be exposed to direct sunlight.
Important Software Check
• Use the system’s fault-monitoring facilities to prevent accidents or mishaps.
• When in doubt, ALWAYS CHECK before executing changes.
Important Hardware Notice
• DO NOT, under any circumstances, disconnect the power supply to a normally
functioning system. Always use the correct system shut-down procedure prior
to disconnecting the power supply.
Signal Noise Due to Cables
Cables which may cause electrical interference (for example, power supply cables)
must not be installed adjacent to bus cables carrying fast digital signals. Ensure that
a minimum distance of 10 cm (4 in.) is provided between cables installed inside
cabinets.
Hazardous Electrical Supplies
Operational and maintenance procedures, during which personnel may come into
contact with high voltage, should only be carried out by personnel fully trained in
the maintenance of electrical equipment within those environments, and who are
fully aware of all risks involved.

Section 1 Introduction Product Overview
Section 1 Introduction
Product Overview
AC 800M – General
AC 800M can be defined as a hardware platform to which individual hardware units
may be connected and which, depending on the specific unit configuration and
operating system selected, can be programmed to perform multiple functions.
Once configured, the AC 800M hardware platform effectively becomes
the AC 800M Controller.
The hardware units that form the AC 800M Controller are:
• Processor units (including baseplate)
(PM856/PM860/PM861/PM864)
• Communication interfaces for different protocols (including baseplates)
(CI851/852/853/854/855/856/857)
• Power supply units, providing various power output levels
(SD821/822/823)
• Battery back-up unit
(SB821)
When equipped with the specified Control Software, the AC 800M Controller will
act either as a stand-alone process controller, or as a controller performing local
control tasks in a control network consisting of many interconnected controllers,
operator stations and servers.
Various I/O systems can be connected to the AC 800M Controller, either directly
(S800 I/O) or via PROFIBUS DP or PROFIBUS DP-V1.
The AC 800M is delivered without Control Software. To provide the controller
with Control Software it will first be necessary to load the firmware and create
the application separately using the Control Builder M engineering tool.
3BSE 027 941 R301 27

AC 800M – General Section 1 Introduction
The AC 800M Controller consists of a selection of units mounted on horizontal

DIN-rails, which can be housed within an enclosure. The majority of units consist of
a base mounting plate and removable cover attached with screws. The baseplate,
which is always mounted onto the DIN-rail, carries the majority of the connections
to processor, the power supplies and communication interfaces, as well as to the
external buses and systems.
The AC 800M Controller is designed to be a cost-effective, low-maintenance
solution for applications ranging from small Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)
to advanced Distributed Control Systems (DCS) control applications.

PM8xx/TP830 Processor Unit – General Section 1 Introduction
PM8xx/TP830 Processor Unit – General

Physically the PM8xx/TP830 Processor Unit consists of two basic parts:
• Processor Unit (PM856/PM860/PM861/PM864) with processor and Power
Supply boards
• Baseplate (TP830), housing the unit termination board
See Figure 4 on page 32 and Figure 5 on page 33, Functional Block Diagram. The
CPU board contains the microprocessor and the RAM-memory, controllers for all
built-in communication interfaces, real-time clock, LED indicators, INIT push
button and a CompactFlash interface (CompactFlash is not connected is this release
and intended for future use).
The main function of the power supply board is to generate isolated, circuit-proof
+5 V and +3.3 V supplies to the CPU and I/O units. The board also contains opto-
isolated RS232-C drivers/receivers for the service port, together with a back-up
battery holder for memory/real time clock, (RTC).
The termination board, housed in the TP830 Baseplate, is where the majority of
the external connections take place. The board is grounded to the DIN-rail through
of the metallic components of the housing. The termination board is provided with
screw terminals for power supply and redundant power supply monitoring, with
RJ45 connectors for the control network and serial port, a connector for the service
port, the electrical ModuleBus and the CEX-Bus.
24 V DC, connected to the TP830 Baseplate, power all units on the CEX-bus and
the electrical ModuleBus.
In single CPU configuration it is possible to connect an S800 I/O cluster directly to
the built-in electrical ModuleBus plug located on the right hand side of the TP830
Baseplate.
The processor unit has a communication expansion bus connector located on
the left-hand side of the TP830 Baseplate. This CEX-bus provides for extending
the on-board communication ports with additional communication units.
PROFIBUS DP, FOUNDATION Fieldbus and dual RS232-C ports are some
examples of unit types available for connection to the CEX-bus.

Figure 6 on page 35 provides examples of various ways to connect the S800 I/O
units. It can be seen, at the top right-hand area of Figure 6 on page 35, that one
cluster (or group) of units (maximum number of units per cluster is 12) is connected
to the electrical ModuleBus of an AC 800M Controller. However, a further seven
clusters (each comprising up to 12 units) can be added to the optical ModuleBus,
thus achieving a total count of 96 units per AC 800M Controller when using only
the ModuleBus.
To the left on Figure 6 on page 35, there is a PROFIBUS DP segment. This allows
for a large increase in the numbers of units connected to each AC 800M Controller.
Here the segment is shown as having an FCI unit (type CI830), connected to the
PROFIBUS DP network. The use of FCI units allows the selection of units from
several I/O families.
For further examples refer to the relevant documentation for the I/O system in
question.

PM861/PM864/TP830 Processor Unit – Redundancy Section 1 Introduction
PM861/PM864/TP830 Processor Unit – Redundancy

Processor unit redundancy is available. In this case, the controller contains two
processor units, each including memory for system and application software. One
unit is acting as primary, the other is backup (hot stand-by). The primary processor
unit controls the process. The backup stands by to take over in case of a fault in the
primary. The changeover is done bumplessly and in less than 10 ms. During the
changeover, the process outputs are frozen.
Following a changeover, the system operates as a system without redundancy with
only one processor unit in operation. You can replace the malfunctioning processor
unit while the system is running. After the replacement is carried out, the system
once again has a redundant processor unit.
If an error arises in the backup unit, you can also replace the backup unit while the
system is running.
Errors which occur in the backup unit can never affect the primary unit’s operation.
The primary unit and the backup unit are logically separated from one another.
Hardware errors in the primary processor unit cause the system to perform a correct
changeover. These hardware errors are "single errors".
The application programming and the communication are totally unaffected by the
redundancy.
The serial port, COM3 on the baseplate TP830, can not be used in redundant CPU
configuration.
The PM861/PM864 has an RCU Link Connector for connecting the RCU Link
Cable (see Figure 2 on page 29). In a redundant system the two processor units are
linked together with the RCU Link Cable. Both processor units are also connected
to the same CEX-bus and either of the two can control the expansion units
(see Figure 16 on page 66).
S800 I/O units are connected to the two CPUs via the optical ModuleBus and two
TB840 cluster modems on each S800 I/O cluster (see Figure 29 on page 98). The
built-in electrical ModuleBus on the TP830 baseplate cannot be used for connecting
S800 I/O in a redundant system.
36 3BSE 027 941 R301

Section 1 Introduction PM861/PM864/TP830 Processor Unit – Redundancy
Fault Tolerance Principle

The principle of fault tolerance in the redundant processor units is based on
continuous updating of the backup unit to the same status as the primary unit. This
enables the backup unit to assume control without affecting surrounding systems in
a bumpless manner.
This principle involves dynamic division of the program execution into execution
units and the creation of rollback points at which the processor unit’s status is
completely defined.
In this context, the processor unit’s total status is defined as the processor unit’s
internal status, that is, the contents of the processor registers, plus the contents of the
data memory.
The backup unit’s status is updated each time the primary unit passes a rollback
point, enabling the backup unit to resume program execution from the last rollback
point passed, should the primary unit fail due to error.
In order to minimize the amount of information involved in the update, the backup
unit is updated only with the changes taking place since the latest rollback point.
Between rollback points, these changes that writes in the data memory, are stored in
a log buffer in the backup unit. At a rollback point, the processor’s total register
contents are also written into the data memory, so that this information is also
logged. Once the rollback point is established, the logged write operations are
transferred to the backup unit’s data memory.
If the primary unit fails because of an error, the backup unit resumes execution from
the last rollback point, which means the last execution unit is partially re-executed
by the backup unit. In order to re-execute a portion of the execution unit without
affecting the peripheral units (communication units on the CEX-Bus), the peripheral
units’ references are also logged between rollback points. During re-execution, the
results of the peripheral units’ references, which have already been executed, are
used, rather than re-executing them. The results of read operations are retrieved
from the log, and write operations pass without execution, since they have already
been executed. The peripheral units’ statuses, then, are not affected by the re-
execution in any way, except for the time delay which occurs.
3BSE 027 941 R301 37

Control Software Section 1 Introduction
The RAM included in the processor unit provides an automatic "Shadow-memory"

function for detection of arbitrary bit errors in the memory.
• All memory updates are written to both the primary memory and to the
"shadow" memory in parallel.
• At every memory read cycle, the data from tho two memories is compared.
• If there is a mismatch in the data a changeover is forced.
The "shadow" memory handling is done in hardware and without any delay to the
memory cycle time.
Control Software
The software used by the AC 800M Controller is named Control Software.
This name does not stand for a specific software package; is merely a generic name
for the scope of functions used in a controller. These functions are provided by:
• hardware functions (supervision, communication buses, I/O buses)
• firmware functions loaded into the controller (real time executive system, real
time clock, redundant communication)
• application programs loaded into the controller (library functions,
communication protocols)
To produce an application, it is necessary to use the Control Builder M tool. This
tool is extremely versatile, having many useful functions in addition to system
configuration.
Ethernet Address
Each TB830 Baseplate is provided with a unique Ethernet address that provides
every CPU with a hardware identity.
This functionality takes the form of two identification addresses residing in the non-
volatile memory of the TP830 Baseplate. The lowest address (a 12 character Hex
code) is located on an adhesive label attached to the TP830 Baseplate. The
remaining address is the lowest +1. See Figure 7 on page 39 for label location
details.

Section 2 Installation
This section contains guidelines for planning the installation of an AC 800M

controller system (see Site Selection and Building Requirements on page 43).
A complete list of measures to be taken with respect to the environment and other
on-site conditions is not given here.
The equipment should be adapted to the actual application by means of a thorough
and correctly scoped system definition, ordering procedures and design
requirements. This section also describes practical on-site installation procedures
specific to AC 800M units (see Mounting AC 800M Units onto DIN-Rail on page
49).
Site Planning
Site Selection and Building Requirements
The AC 800M system is designed for use within demanding industrial
environments. This section provides information on standard requirements
regarding the location at which or the building(s) in which the AC 800M Controller
system is to be stored or installed.
Most applications require no special arrangements regarding the environment, and
so installation according to standard regulations will suffice. In certain situations
however, consideration must be given to specific protective measures.
3BSE 027 941 R301 43

Site Selection and Building Requirements Section 2 Installation
When planning a control system installation, the following points must be

considered:
• Temperature:
– It is important to note the ambient air temperature as well as that within
enclosures. Lower temperatures increase system reliability and
availability.
– If maximum permitted temperatures are exceeded, the anticipated lifetime
of wet, electrolytic capacitors and most semiconductors will be greatly
reduced.
• Vibration:
– Regarding routine vibration it is recommended that floor
enclosures/cabinets stand on a sound, level surface, and that wall
enclosures/cabinets are mounted on sound, vertical walls.
– Should the AC 800M system be installed in a control room, adjacent to
large machinery such as shakers or large presses where frequent major
vibration is expected, then shock absorbers or an isolation pad may be
required to protect system equipment. Shock absorbers will normally
protect the equipment from sustained low-level vibrations that are
perceivable, but not unduly excessive.
– It is recommended that additional fastening screws be used to prevent
vibration-generated noise.
– If vibrations or shock are a major factor, further consideration must be
given to more extreme measures to reduce the problem.
• Cooling:
– Cooling the electronics is achieved by self-convection. The AC 800M
units are designed for wall mounting and must be mounted horizontally
onto a DIN-rail to avoid generating high temperatures within the units.
– ABB cabinets (RM550 or RE820) may be used up to an ambient
temperature of 40 °C (104 °F), with no requirement for additional cooling
equipment, such as fans.
44 3BSE 027 941 R301

Section 2 Installation Cables
• Other requirements:
– Room lighting independent of the equipment power source. A battery-
powered emergency lighting system is recommended.
– A well-developed process connection, with or without marshalling
facilities.
– Effective grounding through a net of copper bars
– Cable routing observing standard installation regulations.
– Availability of power and other necessary utilities.
– Observation of standards and legal regulations.
– Sufficient free space in front of the cabinet in order to fully open the
doors. For safety reasons there must always be adequate space available,
even with the doors in the fully open position.
For additional information regarding design considerations, see Appendix B, Power
Consumption.
Electro-Magnetic Compatibility
The AC 800M units are intrinsically EMC compatible according to CE marking
rules. For additional information regarding Electro-Magnetic Compatibility,
see Appendix D, Directive Considerations.
Cables
Laying Field Cables

There are no special requirements for laying field and communication cables
connected to AC 800M. However:
• Cables for short-distance communication without modems should always be
routed at a distance of 10 cm (4 in) from other cables.
• All cables connected to AC 800M should be routed at a distance of 30cm
(12 in) from all power cables and 10 cm (4 in) from cables belonging to the
relevant international immunity standard, class 4.
3BSE 027 941 R301 45

Power Supply Section 2 Installation
Type of Field Cable

Always use shielded cables for the following applications:
• Communications
• High-frequency pulse transmission
• Low level analog signals, for example Pt100 and thermocouples
• Analog applications with a system accuracy of 12 bits or more.
Unshielded cables may be used for other applications. The signal and return
conductor must always be located in the same cable.
Lightning Protection
Industrial installations and power plants are normally provided with well-integrated
grounding networks, installed as part of the power distribution system. Such
installations do not require additional lightning protection unless using overhead
wiring or suspended cables in an outdoor environment.
However, large dispersed plants such as water supply installations and oil refineries
will have an inadequate grounding system where signal cables may be routed above
ground. In such cases lightning protection equipment must be installed.
Should cables be discovered outside the grounding system (even at a short distance
such as 10 m [9.1 yds]) lightning protection equipment must be installed.
Power Supply
Under normal circumstances, the power supply required by AC 800M Controller
and associated field equipment can be obtained from the plant’s standard 120/230
V AC mains supply.
Mains Net Filter

It is not necessary to use mains net filters when using the SD821/822/823 power
supply units.
46 3BSE 027 941 R301

Section 2 Installation Power Supply
Safety Switch
A safety switch must be installed in the immediate vicinity of a controller
installation to allow for immediate total power supply disconnection to the
equipment, should the need arise. However, the prime function of the safety switch
is to provide a means of isolating the power supply completely during maintenance.
The safety switch must be installed in a location where it is both easily accessible
and clearly visible, i.e., outside any enclosure or cabinet.
Protective Ground
Always install a protective ground connection on equipment connected to a
230 V AC supply.
Fusing the External Mains Supply Cable

The recommended fuse rating for the external mains supply of a standard AC 800M
Controller configuration, housed within a floor or wall-mounted cabinet, is given in
Table 5 on page 47.
Table 5. External Mains Supply – Fuse Rating
Fuse Rating Fuse Type

10 A Slow to Rupture
Should the configuration be other than that stated, instructions for calculating
current consumptions can be found in the relevant I/O manual. For the
AC 800M Controller, see Appendix B, Power Consumption.
Uninterruptable Power Supply

The SD82x series of power supply units comfortably handle the short power
interruptions (<20 ms) that y occur normally within an industrial environment.
Despite this, it is sometimes necessary to protect certain applications against brief
voltage failures by the installation of an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS)
device.
3BSE 027 941 R301 47

Enclosures Section 2 Installation
The AC 800M controller will shut down safely in the event of a power failure.
During down-time, the application memory and the system clock will be backed up
by the internal battery. In systems subject to long non-operational periods, it is
recommended that an external battery back-up unit be installed. When the power
supply is reconnected, the AC 800M Controller will re-start and run the application
as normal.
If the effects of unexpected shutdowns are not acceptable, it is highly recommended
that the AC 800M Controller be fully protected by connection to an Uninterruptable
Power Supply (UPS) source.
Enclosures
The AC 800M and S800 I/O units hold protection class IP20, with each unit being
individually CE-marked. Although these units can be used without an additional
enclosure, it is recommended, within a normal industrial environment, to use a
protection class higher than IP20 by adding a suitable enclosure.
Normally the use of an additional enclosure will not influence the EMC
characteristics of the controller.
Enclosure Mounting
When mounting the controller enclosure, it is important to provide certain minimum
distances between the enclosure, the walls and the ceiling, in order to provide
satisfactory ventilation.
If the enclosure is provided with removable wall cladding, it is important to ensure
that this is not removed from any enclosure adjacent to other enclosures containing
equipment not belonging to the AC 800M Controller and its connected S800 I/O.
48 3BSE 027 941 R301

Section 2 Installation Mounting AC 800M Units onto DIN-Rail
ABB Cabinets
As a suitable enclosure, ABB recommends the following two cabinets, both
specially adapted for mounting the AC 800M Controller and S800 I/O. Both are
sealed to protection class IP54 and can support the Controller and S800 I/O units
with no requirement for additional cooling equipment:
• RM550 – Floor-mounted cabinet
• RE820 – Wall-mounted cabinet.
For further information on ABB cabinets, see Appendix C, Recommended
Components.
Mounting AC 800M Units onto DIN-Rail

Since the AC 800M units (CPU and communication interfaces) are cooled by self-
convection, it is important that they only be mounted onto a horizontal DIN- rail.
Each baseplate has a locking mechanism that contacts the metal backplate to the
DIN-rail, providing an effective ground connection. The DIN-rail functions as a
very effective ground for the system.
The additional screw lugs, located in the lower part of the baseplate, serve no
electrical function. They are provided for use should extra fastening be required
within environments subject to excessive vibration.
The DIN-rail must be firmly attached to a suitable conductive mounting surface, by
means of suitable screws positioned at exact intervals of 100 mm (4 in) along the
full length of the rail.
The AC 800M Controller and associated units must be electrically isolated before
being mounted onto a DIN-rail!
3BSE 027 941 R301 49

Mounting AC 800M Units onto DIN-Rail Section 2 Installation
Mounting Procedure for PM8xx and CI8xx Units, Complete with Baseplates
Before mounting any processor unit or communication interface onto the DIN-rail,
read carefully the installation instructions provided with the equipment. Since the
electronic unit and baseplate are supplied as a single unit, there is no requirement to
separate them during the mounting procedure.
Mounting the units onto the DIN-rail only requires a blade screwdriver that fits
securely into the baseplate locking screw (1 mm slot). For further details on
mounting procedure, see Figure 8 on page 51.
Use the procedure below to mount the baseplates, complete with units:
1. Rotate the locking device to the OPEN position (1), hook the upper lip at the
rear of the unit baseplate securely over the upper edge of the DIN-rail and
gently snap the baseplate fully into the mounting position.
2. Rotate the locking device to the SLIDE position (2), gently slide the unit along
the DIN-rail to the desired mounting position and using the connector plugs
and sockets gently attach it to the adjacent unit baseplate.
To prevent damage to the pins, be sure the baseplate plugs and sockets are fully
aligned as the units interconnect.Under no circumstances use excessive force!
3. When interconnection is complete, rotate the locking device clockwise to

the LOCKED position (3). The baseplate is now fully locked into position and
has a good ground connection to the DIN-rail.
It is essential that the locking device be placed in the LOCKED position to
avoid possible problems caused by vibration and/or intermittent grounding.
For further visual information on mounting AC 800M Controller units, see Figure 9
on page 51.

Removing Units Complete with Baseplates

The AC 800M units must be disconnected from the power source before removing
them from a DIN-rail!
Use the procedure below to remove a unit, complete with baseplate:

1. Isolate the power supply to the controller units.
2. Remove any detachable cables from the appropriate unit baseplate.
3. Rotate the locking device to the SLIDE position (2) on the unit baseplate,
see Figure 8 on page 51.
In order to provide adequate access and removal space, note that the SLIDE
sequence must be carried out on the unit baseplates adjacent to the unit that is
to be removed.
4. Gently ease the unit/baseplates sideways in order to release the contacts of the
unit baseplate being removed.
52 3BSE 027 941 R301

5. Turn the locking device anti-clockwise to the OPEN position (1) and ease the
unit baseplate outward and upward at the base. Lift the unit to remove it from
the DIN-rail.
The unit baseplates are easily disconnected from each other by gently prying
them apart with a blade screwdriver (see Figure 11 on page 53).

Since the units are very similar in design, baseplates have been given a two-part,
pre-set Alpha code locking device that prevents the installation of an incompatible
type of unit onto the baseplate should the Alpha codes not agree. All identical unit
types have the same factory pre-set, two-letter Alpha code installed prior to
delivery.

Installing the PM8xx/TP830 Processor Unit in Single Configuration Section 2 Installation
Installing the PM8xx/TP830 Processor Unit in Single

Configuration
Use the procedure below to install the processor unit along the DIN-rail:
1. If already mounted, remove the CEX-bus and ModuleBus terminations from
the sides of the processor unit.
For PM861/PM864 insert the RCU Link Termination plug TB852, at the RCU
Link connector. The termination plug must always be used for PM861/PM864
when running in single configuration.
When a redundant processor is running in a single configuration use the RCU
Link Cable TK851, if the RCU Link Termination plug TB852 is not available.
2. Mount the processor unit, the communication interfaces and the S800 I/O units
(the communication interfaces on the CEX-bus to the left of the processor unit
and the S800 I/O units on the electrical ModuleBus to the right of the processor
unit).
3. Press them gently together and make sure that the ModuleBus and the CEX-
bus are correctly connected, via baseplate connectors.
4. Reinsert the bus terminations into the communication units at farthest away
from the processor unit.
a. For CEX-bus TB850 (TB851 if cable TK850 is used), see Figure 13 on
page 58 and Figure 14 on page 59. If no units are used on the CEX-bus, no
bus termination is required.
b. For ModuleBus TB807, refer to the S800 I/O documentation (see Related
Documentation on page 17). If no units are used on the ModuleBus, no
bus termination is required.
5. TP830 Baseplate cable connections:
a. Connect the power leads and, if applicable, power supervision signals
from SS822 to screw terminals SA and SB (see Figure 15 on page 60).
b. Connect the Control Network cables to CN1 (single connection) or CN1 +
CN2 (redundant connection).
c. Connect the serial protocol to COM3.

Section 2 Installation Installing the PM8xx/TP830 Processor Unit in Single Configuration
d. Connect the Control Builder to COM4 with cable TK212 (if required for
changing an IP address etc). Otherwise connect the Control Builder to the
Control Network.
6. Connect the optical ModuleBus to the optical contacts on the processor unit
(see Figure 2 on page 29 and Figure 17 on page 77). Information regarding
optical cable selection and cable length is provided in the S800 I/O
documentation (see Related Documentation on page 17).
Note that connection to the optical ModuleBus is identical to that for the
processor unit and for the FCI in S800 I/O (see Figure 28 on page 97.)
7. The PM8xx is supplied with an internal back-up battery. When the battery is to
be used, place it in the Internal Battery Holder (see Figure 33 on page 121).
When the external SB821 battery unit is to be used, install it according to the
instructions in Installing the SB821 External Battery Unit on page 85.
Do not place the internal back-up battery in the battery holder until the
AC 800M Controller has been powered-up normally and the memory back-up
function has been activated. If no normal power supply is connected to the
processor unit with the battery in place, then the CPU memory will
immediately start to consume battery power.
Always install a fresh internal or external battery at the end of the installation
phase. The original battery is heavily utilized due to frequent blackouts during
system installation.

Communication Ports
CN1 and CN2

The control network connects to one or two RJ45 connectors (CN1 and CN2)
depending on network option (single or redundant).
Use an RJ45 connector for IEEE802.3 (Ethernet) for connecting to a category 5
Shielded Twisted Pair cable (STP class 5).
The IEEE standard language is a class 5 cable 10/100 Base-T/TX max 100 m
(110 yd). The STP is suitable only in non-industrial (office) environments. Only use
STP in a protected environment to connect to Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS)
Ethernet components, (HUBS/Transceivers/and so forth), that convert to optical
fiber. ABB recommends the use of optical fiber in an industrial environment, for
example 62.5/125 100 Base-FX, max. distance 1500 m (1600 yd)

Installing the PM861/PM864/TP830 Processor Unit in

Redundant Configuration
In redundant configuration two PM861/PM864 units are mounted onto two separate
DIN-rails. If sufficient space is available, the units can be mounted onto the same
DIN-rail
Note that in redundant CPU configuration, COM3 and the electrical ModuleBus on
the baseplate can not be used.
Use the following procedure to install the processor units along the DIN-rail:
1. Mount the processor units. Mount the communication interfaces on the CEX-
bus to the left of the processor unit. All interfaces can be mounted on the same
CPU or divided between the two.
2. Press them gently together and make sure that the CEX-bus is correctly
connected, via the connectors on the baseplates.
3. Mount the CEX-bus extension cable TK850 to the units at farthest away from
the processor units or, if no units are mounted, directly to the CEX-bus on the
processor unit. The CEX-bus extension cable must be connected to both CPUs
whether or not there are any other CEX-bus units (Figure 16 on page 66).
4. Connect the RCU Link Cable TK851 to both CPUs.
Note that the RCU Link Cable TK851 must be used and can not be replaced by
a similar cable. Using another cable will disable the identification of the CPUs
in the CB and Operator Station.
When running in single configuration the RCU Link Cable TK851 performs
the function of a termination plug.
The CPU connected to the RCU Link Cable connector marked “UPPER” will
be defined as “UPPER” in the Control Builder and Operator Station. The
marking has no relevance to the physical placement of the CPUs. Any CPU can
become the Primary CPU. However at the first power on, the “UPPER” CPU
will take the role of Primary CPU.

Figure 19 on page 81 and Figure 20 on page 82 show redundant power supplies
powering AC 800M units. Here the SA/SB signals also indicate physical power
supplies.
Figure 22 on page 84 shows one redundant power supply powering the AC 800M
units and one for powering field equipment. An SA/SB error indication can not
indicate which physical power supply that has failed, only that there is a failure.
To avoid error indications from SA/SB when single power supply is used, it is
recommended to connect the input terminals SA/SB on the CPU to +24 V,

Section 2 Installation Installing the SB821 External Battery Unit
Installing the SB821 External Battery Unit

Use the following procedure to connect the external battery unit:
1. Mount the SB821 external battery unit at a suitable position on the DIN-rail.
2. For connecting the SB821 external battery unit, use the 2 m (2.2 yd) cable
TK821V020. Plug one end into the battery unit and the other into the external
battery supply socket of the PM8xx processor unit (see Figure 2 on page 29).
3. In redundant CPU configuration containing two PM861/PM864 processor
units, use also two SB821 battery units, one for each processor unit.
4. Due to the batteries being connected in parallel, it is necessary, when using the
external battery, to remove the internal battery from the PM8xx in order to
avoid reducing available memory back-up time.
Do not connect the TK821V020 cable until the AC 800M Controller has been
powered-up normally and the memory back-up function has been activated. If
no normal power supply is connected to the PM8xx processor unit, the CPU
memory will immediately start to consume battery power when the cable is
connected.

I/O Units, refer to the appropriate I/O system documentation.

Section 3 Configuration General Information
Section 3 Configuration
General Information
Using the engineering tool Control Builder, it is possible to configure hardware (I/O
and communication units) and make application programs with control languages
according to IEC 61131-3. Programs can be compiled and run off-line as an aid to
process simulation before finally downloading an application to the controller. The
Control Builder offers a set of options, each with its own set of properties. Simply
select the option that is closest to system requirements. For further information,
• Control Builder M Documentation – for configuration information
• Control Software Documentation – for available functionality.
The Control Builder Online Help facility provides detailed step-by-step information
when creating an application for the AC 800M Controller.
Connecting Control Builder M

The Control Builder installed in a PC is normally connected to the AC 800M
Controller via the Control Network and the CN1 or CN2 ports on the controller
Alternatively the Control Builder may be connected via the COM4 port (RS232-C)
on the AC 800M Controller. Use the tool cable TK212 and a serial port on the PC.
In redundant configuration the Control Builder is connected to the Primary CPU
COM4 port. The CB can not be accessed by the Backup CPU.
Note that if the firmware in the AC 800M is not running correctly, then it is likely
that the CN1 and CN2 ports will not be usable. However, the connection via the
COM4 port is always available.

Connection to a Control Network Section 3 Configuration
Connection to a Control Network

The Control Network is a private IP network domain for both real time data and
general system communication between industrial computers. It is scalable from a
very small network with a few nodes, to a large network containing a number of
“Network Areas” and many hundreds of nodes.

Section 3 Configuration Communication Possibilities
The network can utilize different and mixed link implementations such as Fast
Ethernet and PPP. It provides for full redundancy to achieve high network
availability.
The AC 800M controller is always connected to the Control Network via an STP
(Shielded Twisted Pair) cable. Should the local environment be of an industrial
nature, the AC 800M / Control network connection must be converted over to a
Fiber Optic (FO) cable. This is achieved by installing a Switch/Hub having both
optical and electrical ports. See Figure 27 on page 92.
For more information on the Control Network, see Related Documentation on
page 17.
Communication Possibilities
Located on the processor unit (PM8xx/TP830), the following communication ports
are available for the following functions:
• CN1 and CN2 are used for connection to the Control Network. Both are RJ45
ports for Ethernet (IEEE802.3) and connection is normally achieved using
category 5 shielded twisted pair cable (STP class 5). However, as mentioned
previously, within industrial environments it is recommended that all STP
cables are converted to optical fiber.
– For single or redundant CPUs and single networks: All CN1 are connected
to the network (CN2 can be used but requires reconfiguration of the
communication set-up for the concerned CPU).
– For single or redundant CPUs and redundant networks: All CN1 are
connected to the primary network and all CN2 to the secondary network.
Details on cable selection, hubs, switches and so forth, are provided in this
book (see Appendix C, Recommended Components).
• COM3 is an RJ45 port for RS232-C with modem signals. Examples of
protocols are Modbus, Siemens 3964R, COMLI or custom-design. For more
details, see Related Documentation on page 17.
• COM4 is an RJ45 port for connection of service tools (see Connecting Control
Builder M on page 91). The port has no modem signals.

Section 3 Configuration Controller IP Addresses
Controller IP Addresses
Before a redundant hardware installation you have to concider the following.
Remember that the Backup controller IP Addresses must be set in the primary
Processor Unit. This can only be done though the IPConfig tool.
There are three alternatives:
• Disable interface.
• Use default rule.
• Specify an address of your own.
Use Default rule if not in conflict with any other IP-address on the network.
In the case you need to set an IP address to a redundant CPU, the backup CPU needs
to be turned off (powered down). Otherwise the backup CPU takes over and you
will not be connected.
Setting CPU as Redundant in Control Builder M

The redundant PM861/PM864 must be set as redundant in the Control Builder M
Project Explorer. Also see Hardware Configuration and Redundancy in the
Control Builder M online help.
3BSE 027 941 R301 95

I/O Systems Section 3 Configuration
I/O Systems
There are several methods of connecting I/O systems to the AC 800M controller:
• ModuleBus for the S800 I/O units only.
• Via CI856 for connection of S100 I/O.
• PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS DP-V1 for all I/O systems and units equipped
with an adapter suitable for PROFIBUS DP or PROFIBUS DP-V1
connections.
S800 I/O units can also be connected to PROFIBUS DP and DP-V1.
For more information on supported I/O systems and units, see Related
Documentation on page 17.
ModuleBus
The ModuleBus in the AC 800M controller consists of one electrical and one optical
unit:
• Electrical ModuleBus, (see Figure 28 on page 97) – 1 cluster (group), with a
maximum of 12 S800 I/O units connected.
Note that the electrical ModuleBus can only be used for connection of
S800 I/O when AC800M is running in single CPU configuration.
• Optical ModuleBus (see Figure 28 on page 97) – 7 clusters (groups), with

maximum 7 x 12 = 84 S800 I/O units connected.

Power Supply System Section 3 Configuration
Power Supply System

The configuration of a power supply system for an AC 800M controller is very
straightforward.
Configurations
Figure 31 on page 106 gives a series of simple circuit diagrams showing various
possibilities for connecting the incoming mains power – via the mains breaker, the
power supply units and the SS822 voting devices – to the 24 V DC distribution
terminals.
The AC 800M Controller and its I/O system are normally located in one or several
enclosures or cabinets. The cabinet housing the AC 800M Controller can also
contain I/O units connected to the controller via the electrical ModuleBus, the
optical ModuleBus or the communication interfaces for PROFIBUS DP and
PROFIBUS DP-V1.
Cabinet containing the AC 800M controller

From this cabinet power may be required for:
• Powering Units: power to the electronic circuitry for each unit in the cabinet.
• Powering Field Equipment: power to equipment, relay contacts etc. located
outside the cabinet, but connected to the inputs/outputs of the I/O units in the
cabinet.
It is strongly recommended to:
• use a power supply in each cabinet for Powering Units (only when cabinets are
mounted side by side can power to the units be taken from another cabinet)
• use separate power supplies for Powering Units and Powering Field
Equipment (see Figure 24 on page 88 and Figure 25 on page 89).
Cabinet containing I/O system

Use the recommendations given above if no other information is given in the I/O
system documentation.
102 3BSE 027 941 R301

Section 3 Configuration Powering Units in the Cabinet
Powering Units in the Cabinet

This power supply is only connected to units within the cabinet such as:
• PM8xx, which also powers all communication interfaces (via the CEX-bus)
and all S800 I/O units connected to its electrical ModuleBus.
• TB820V2/TB840 (optical modem for S800 I/O) which also powers all S800
I/O units connected to its electrical ModuleBus.
• CI830 (PROFIBUS DP interface for S800 I/O) which also powers all S800 I/O
units connected to its electrical ModuleBus.
• PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS DP-V1 adapters for other I/O systems
(depending on the supply arrangement for the I/O units, it may be necessary to
connect power to each I/O unit).
• Communication modems located in the cabinet.
The main configuration rule for this power supply is to retain the 24 V cables within
the cabinet.
Powering Field Equipment outside the Cabinet

This is intended for supplying power to process signals and equipment located
outside the cabinet.
Interference
Powering field equipment from a power supply located in the AC 800M Controller
cabinet often requires the use of long 24 V DC cables that can easily pick up local
interference and direct it straight back to the power supply units. When installing the
cables follow the Field Cables, given under Cables on page 45.
Short circuit at the power supply output

The SD82x series power supply has no extra energy reservoir at its outputs. In the
event of a short circuit the power supply output voltage will fall rapidly.
Short circuits (even with fuses installed in the 24 V DC distribution system) or large
load changes can produce unwanted voltage dips in supply.
3BSE 027 941 R301 103

Powering Field Equipment outside the Cabinet Section 3 Configuration
To avoid the AC 800M Controller being influenced by field equipment, it is strongly

recommended that separate power supplies be installed (see Figure 24 on page 88
and Figure 25 on page 89).
Sectioning the field equipment

If field equipment connected to an AC 800M Controller is to be sectioned into
groups – thus avoiding a power failure in one group from influencing the power to
other groups – then it is recommended to use separate power supplies for each field
equipment group.
The use of fuses in the 24 V DC distribution system is not a fail-safe measure. If a
short circuit occurs in one group, then voltage will most likely drop before a fuse
blows; consequently all groups will experience a drop in voltage.
Cable protection
24 V DC distribution system cables must be fuse-protected. In order to allow for
overload/short circuit situations, the power supply output current is limited. Allow
the power supply an extra capacity of at least 3-4 times the rated current value of the
largest connected fuse and remember to include long cable resistance in the
calculation.
104 3BSE 027 941 R301

Section 3 Configuration Powering from an External +24 V DC Source
Connection alternatives
The field equipment power supply can be connected in the same manner as that used
for connecting and powering the AC 800M units (see Figure 31 on page 106).
However, it should be noted that the same Mains Breaker Unit can be used to
control and isolate both power supplies. Alternatively, independent Mains Breakers
can be used on each spur (see Figure 32 on page 107).
Powering from an External +24 V DC Source

The AC 800M Controller can be powered from an external +24 V DC source. This
source is often common for many different types of plant equipment, resulting in
long power cables to the AC 800M Controller. Furthermore, heavy load changes can
cause variations in controller supply voltage making it necessary to take precautions
against low voltage in order to prevent controller malfunction.
Should there be a risk that the +24 V at the PM8xx power terminals could drop
below 19.2 V for more than 1ms, then an energy reservoir must be used for
Powering Units. The recommended solution is to use a DC/DC converter in the
controller cabinet. This converter can also provide isolation between the AC 800M
supply and the external DC source and eliminate grounding problems between the
controller and other parts connected to the same source.

to the external battery connector. Battery voltage is checked by the software. Voltage is common
for both the internal and external battery. For this reason the internal battery should be removed
when using the external battery, since having two batteries connected in parallel will result in
greatly reduced capacity.

Automatic Switch-Over to Backup CPU Section 4 Operation
Automatic Switch-Over to Backup CPU

In a redundant configuration an automatic switch-over from the Primary CPU to the
Backup CPU occurs in the following situations, provided they are in synchronized
state (DUAL LED is lit):
• Memory error in the Primary CPU.
• Other HW-error in the Primary CPU, which causes CPU crash.
• Severe communication errors on the Control network i.e loss of both network
ports in the Primary CPU.
• Severe communication errors on the ModuleBus (if ModuleBus is part of the
HW configuration) i.e. loss of clusters in the Primary CPU .
Note that a Backup CPU with severe communication errors on the ModuleBus
will be rejected (if ModuleBus is part of the HW configuration) and
synchronized state will never be reached as long as error remains.

Performance Data
The PM856 and PM860 processor units have the same internal design. They differ
only in performance when executing an application program.
Using the same application program in PM856 and PM860, the difference in
execution time can be expressed as:
Execution time in PM856 = 2 *Execution time in PM860
Example: If a certain application program has an execution time of 100 ms in
PM860, the same application program will have an execution time of 200 ms in
PM856.

CI851 and TP851 – PROFIBUS DP Interface
Key Features
• Provides one PROFIBUS DP port, (a DB9 female F
R
connector located on the TP851 Baseplate).
Rx/Tx
• Simple DIN-rail mounting RTS
• The CI851 handles cyclic read and write messages

to the slaves on the PROFIBUS DP. The minimum
cycle time can be 1 ms, however, but this will
depend on the baud rate used and the number of
attached slaves.
• By using repeaters it is possible to connect a
maximum of 124 nodes to one PROFIBUS DP (32
nodes are permitted on one segment). CI851
• Pre-set, two-letter Alpha code locking device

installed in unit base prevents mounting of
incompatible components.
Description
The CI851 / TP851 is used for connecting to remote I/O.
Via an external gateway on PROFIBUS DP, field
instruments (on PROFIBUS DP) can be connected to AC
800M. The TP851 Baseplate has one female DB9
connector for connecting PROFIBUS DP. The baseplate
has a code lock, see Table 6 on page 54, that prevents the
installation of an incorrect type of unit onto the TP851
Baseplate.
The CI851 expansion unit contains the CEX-bus logic, a communication unit and a
DC/DC converter that supplies appropriate voltages from the +24V supply, via the
CEX-bus. The PROFIBUS DP must always be terminated at the two outer nodes.
ABB recommends the use of connectors with built-in termination since the fieldbus
will always be terminated even if fully disconnected from the unit.

CI852
Description
The CI852, connects the FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1
(FF H1) to the AC 800M. The FF H1 has a
communication speed of 31.25 kbit/s and is intended for
remote connection of field instruments. The CI852 is
connected to the bus via a transformer, and as such
neither supplies nor consumes bus electrical power.
The number of field instruments that can be connected
via the CI852 depends on the physical limitations of the FF H1 network, together
with any software limitations (refer to the software documentation).
The FF H1 bus allows reuse of existing cabling for
4-20 mA analog signals. This means the cables often become the dominant
dimensioning factor.
An FF configurator tool can be connected directly to the FF H1 bus.

Description CI857
The CI857/TP853 can be used to connect an AC 800M

controller to INSUM through TCP/IP over Ethernet and
an INSUM TCP/IP Gateway that has a LON interface
communicating with the underlying INSUM system.
COM1 COM2
The TP853 Baseplate has two RJ45 Ethernet connectors,
though only the COM1connector is used for connecting
to INSUM.
The baseplate has a code lock , see Table 6 on page 54,
that prevents the installation of an incorrect type of unit
onto the TP853 Baseplate.
The CI857 expansion unit contains the CEX-bus logic, a communication unit and a
DC/DC converter that supplies appropriate voltages from the +24V supply via the
CEX-bus. The Ethernet cable must be connected to the main network through an
Ethernet hub.

Power Supply Units Types SD821/822/823 – Description

ABB recommends the use of these robust and reliable power supply units (PSUs)
for providing power to the AC 800M Controller when connected to an industrial
mains network of installation category III. All three PSUs can be used for both non-
redundant and redundant applications, as well as load sharing functions.
The three PSUs were designed as switch mode power converters, converting AC
mains supply voltage to a regulated 24V DC output. Rated output capacity:
• SD823 = 24 Volts DC regulated @ 10 A
• SD822 = 24 Volts DC regulated @ 5 A
• SD821 = 24 Volts DC regulated @ 2.5 A
The mains input voltage is set to either 115 or 230V by means of a switch mounted
on the face of the unit. The factory default position for this switch is 230V.
184 3BSE 027 941 R301

The output voltage of all three PSUs is a regulated, low noise, 24V DC. A green
LED on the PSU front panel indicates that the output circuit is providing the correct
output voltage level. The double connectors provided on the 24V DC output
terminals allow for connecting more than one piece of equipment.
A surge current limiter within the PSU circuit provides a soft-start feature.
Consequently the controlled power-on of a PSU will not trip fuses or ground-fault
circuit breakers. In addition, the normal disturbances that occur within an industrial
main network will not result in transient fault conditions or tripping.
This results in the surge current limiter effectively reducing the peak inrush current
caused by a power disruption, to a level the PSU can tolerate.
This soft-start, surge current limiter facility simplifies designing the system power
distribution circuits.

Redundant Power Supply Configurations

The SS822 Voting Unit has been specifically designed for utilization as a control
unit within a redundant power supply configuration. The output connections from
two identical Power Supply Units (PSUs) are connected to the SS822, see Figure 31
on page 106 and Figure 32 on page 107.
The SS822 Voting Unit separates the redundant PSUs, supervises the voltage
supplied and generates supervision signals to be connected to the computer system.
Green LEDs, mounted on the SS822 front panel, provide a visual indication that the
correct output voltage is being delivered. Immediately the green LED lights up, a
voltage-free contact closes the path to the corresponding "OK connector". The
SS822 trip levels (2 off), are factory preset. For details see Table 56 on page 190

Description
The TC562 Short Distance Modem unit can be used both for point-to-point
communication and for communication over a distance between pieces of
equipment or units, for example a computer and printer or a robotic device. ABB
recommends their use when the distance between units/equipment exceeds 15m.
For further details refer to the manufacturer’s documentation (Westermo).
Using a modem allows distances between pieces of equipment to be as much as
18000m, and, depending on the distance, can provide a data transmission speed of
up to 38400bit/s. The modems are manufactured for simple mounting onto a
standard 35mm DIN-rail.
Transfer between modems takes place along two twisted pair cables, one at full or
half duplex and the other at simplex. The transfer distance is fully dependent on
3BSE 027 941 R301 191

TC562 Modem Unit – (Westermo MD-12DC) Appendix A Hardware Units
cable resistance and capacitance. ABB recommends a minimum cable gauge of

0.2mm2 with a capacitance of 40-80pF/m within an industrial environment.
For an office environment, ABB recommends a minimum cable gauge of 0.14mm2,
and a capacitance of 40-100pF/m. Use a shielded cable in a heavy industrial
environment and an unshielded cable in an office environment. A shielded cable is
often given a higher capacitance and will therefore provide a higher data
transmission speed.

Al-Profile Support For DIN-Rail Appendix A Hardware Units
Al-Profile Support For DIN-Rail

Units comprising the AC 800M controller are mounted onto DIN-rails (type: TS
35/7.5). However, the DIN-rail itself is not rigid enough to support the units on its
own. For this reason a support is recommended, such as an A1-profile, specifically
designed for supporting DIN-rails (see Figure 54 on page 200). Refer to price list
for additional information.
Key features of the Al-profile are:
• Simple mounting.
• No drilling required; profile incorporates pre-formed channels suitable for self-
tapping screws.
• Provides secure mounting in locations subject to extreme vibration,
• Rigid construction.
• Easy-fit, press-in cable-retaining duct.

General
At an ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F) it is considered unnecessary to calculate
the heat dissipation requirements for a standard AC 800M Controller with S800 I/O
configuration, mounted within ABB floor-mounted or wall-mounted cabinets.
For a standard AC 800M Controller configuration housed within a floor-mounted or
wall-mounted cabinet, the recommended fuse rating for the external mains supply
is:

Should the configuration be other than that stated, detailed instructions for
calculating current consumptions can be found in the following text.
The following tables present current consumption and power dissipation for all
relevant hardware units included in AC 800M Controller.
Use this information:
• dimensioning the supply requirements of an AC 800M and S800 I/O
configuration.
• calculating cabinet-generated power loss.
The values given in the tables are typical and adapted to these applications. It is
assumed that 70% of unit channels are active simultaneously.

Calculations
1. Calculate the current requirements for each bus (ModuleBus and CEX-bus). Be
sure not to exceed the limits given in Table 65 on page 203. Data relating to
TB820, TB840 and CI830 is accessible from the S800 I/O documentation.
See Related Documentation on page 17.
2. Calculate the current consumption at 24V, for each electrical ModuleBus, by
adding::
Im = I (24 V) + I (5 V) x 0.3
3. To calculate the requirement for a specific power supply unit, total the results
of the 24V current consumption calculations, as follows:

Appendix F Environmental Data Environmental Data for AC 800M Products
Appendix F Environmental Data
Environmental Data for AC 800M Products

The immunity of products to environmental factors met during operation,
transportation and storage is summarized in this section.
Industrial environment are supplied with power from a high-voltage or medium-
voltage transformer dedicated to supplying installations feeding manufacturing or
similar plants. The existence of industrial apparatus and heavy, frequently-switched
inductive or capacitive loads characterize an Industrial environment. The
associated magnetic fields are high..
Control products incl. I/O-systems are normally intended for Industrial
environment.
Products manufactured by ABB and other companies are normally type-tested or
evaluated to ensure compliance with the environmental standards specified below.
Environmental specifications applicable to peripheral equipment, for example
printers, may differ. Please refer to the relevant product data sheets..
The degree to which the units resist environmental influence depends on their
components and design. System enclosures, cable types and how these are routed
determine the environmental specification of the entire system.

Appendix F Environmental Data Installation Requirements
Installation Requirements
Installation regulations for all products are included in relevant product
documentation. Some general installation rules and applications are given below.
Laying Field Cables

There are no special requirements for laying field and communication cables
connected to products. However:
Cables for short-distance communication without modems should always be routed
at a distance of 10cm (4in.) from other cables.
All product-connected cables should be routed at a distance of 30cm (12in.) from
non-product power cables (heavy current cables) and 10cm (4in.) from class 4
cables of relevant international immunity standards.
Types of Field Cable

Shielded cables are always necessary for:
• Communications (see product documentation for cable type)
• High-frequency pulse transmission (see product documentation for cable type)
• Low-level analog signals, e.g. Pt100 and thermocouples
• Analog application with a system accuracy > 12 bits
For other applications unshielded cables may be used. Digital and analog signals of
the same type can be run on the same cable.
Signal and return conductors must always be located on the same cable.
3BSE 027 941 R301 221

Lightning Protection Appendix F Environmental Data
Lightning Protection
Industrial installations and power plants are normally provided with well-integrated
grounding networks, installed as part of the power distribution system. Such
installations do not require additional lightning protection.
Additional lightning protection is always necessary when:
• Cables extend beyond the area covered by the ground line network
• Cables are located above ground
• Overhead cables are used.
Inductive Load Suppression

Inductive loads, such as relays and contactors connected directly to products, do not
require suppression. The necessary suppression components (varistors or snubbers-
RC units) are installed on the circuit boards.
