ABB PDP800Key features
Integrated intelligent devices: ABB PDP800 allows Symphony Plus controllers to seamlessly integrate with field devices such as smart transmitters, actuators, motor control centers, flame scanners and intelligent electronic devices through the PROFIBUS DP network to achieve real-time data exchange and control.
Support multiple protocols: ABB PDP800 is compatible with PROFIBUS DP V0, V1 and V2 protocols, suitable for various industrial communication needs.
Remote configuration and maintenance: ABB PDP800 uses ABB's S+ Engineering tool, allowing users to easily configure and maintain PROFIBUS networks and their related control strategies, reducing system costs and maintenance complexity.
Typical cooperation cases
European data center: ABB PDP800 provides 48-circuit power distribution and PUE monitoring for a supercomputing center in Frankfurt (saving 20%).
Southeast Asian smart building: ABB PDP800 integrates BACnet in a commercial complex in Singapore to achieve linkage control of lighting and air conditioning.
