ABB AC500-eCo V3 – it is all about enhancemen

Change from the predecessor to AC500-eCo V3

Every inch of the AC500-eCo V3 has been improved compared

to its predecessor.

More performance, flexibility and smarter modularity.

But above all, more user friendliness with new efficient

engineering for configuring and programming.

Change for more!

1   Updated Automation Builder engineering editors allow for efficient programming

and debugging. They support object-oriented programming and provide

state-of-the-art navigation and refactoring.

2   Thanks to the identical footprint and compatibility with existing hardware,

AC500-eCo V3 can replace its predecessor 1:1 in almost any application.

3   Benefit from enhanced connectivity and modularity due to onboard features

like Ethernet interfaces and removable smart option boards.

4   IoT-enabled devices with secure protocols allow you to share data via OPC UA and

MQTT or communicate securely via HTTPS and FTPS.

5    Automated migration of hardware configuration, visualizations and application

program code based on IEC 61131 function blocks.
