ABB S800 I/O - open process I/O system

S800 I/O is a comprehensive, distributed and modular process I/O

system that communicates with parent controllers and PLCs over

industry-standard field buses. Thanks to its broad connectivity it fits

a wide range of process controllers and PLCs from ABB and others.

By permitting installation in the field, close to sensors and actuators,

S800 I/O reduces the installation cost by reducing the cost of cabling.

And thanks to features such as “hot swap” of modules, on-line

reconfiguration and redundancy options, it contributes to keeping

production – and thereby profits – up. 

Scales from low cost, standard function to high end features like hot-swap, HART, time tagging, redundancy down to I/O channel.

S800 I/O is an open comprehensive, distributed, process I/O system that communicates with

controllers by direct connection or over industry-standard field buses.

Thanks to its open connectivity it fits a wide range of process controllers from ABB and others.

By permitting installation in the field, close to sensors and actuators, S800 I/O reduces the installation cost by reducing the cost of cabling.

Benefits

• Cost effective solutions to practically all needs for field device interfacing, including basic analog and digital I/O, as well as intrinsic safety and high integrity solutions.

• Highly modular and can be built in a near infinite number of ways, from highly centralized to highly distributed.

• Supporting industry standard field bus PROFIBUS DP, compatible also with non-ABB controllers; supports also ABB’s Advant Fieldbus 100

• Configured transparently as part of  parent controllers, like local I/O; no additional knowledge or skills are required.

• Comprehensive diagnostics, hot swapping of modules and redundancy solutions contribute to keeping production up
