The powerful System 800xA AC 870P controller family with its known sturdiness is made for demanding applications in large systems. With a maximum number of 250,000 I/O, System 800xA with AC 870P extends the range for possible applications far beyond usual plant sizes and thus provides our customers with a unique system scalability.
The multi-level architecture of System 800xA with AC 870P is based on a combination of system packages – Controller and I/O, Engineering Tool, Operator Interface – and optional packages such as system-integrated solutions for process optimization or batch processes.
The whole system has been designed as fully redundant; nevertheless, our customers can downscale redundancy wherever wanted without additional effort - System 800xA with AC 870P internally manages any redundancy issues. The comprehensive bus concept of the AC 870P controller allows for the easy integration of PROFIBUS and IEC 61850 electrical assets.
The proven AC 870P rack mounted I/O provides you with an ultimate packing density that reduces the system demand for installation space. Additionally, S900 Remote I/O for use in hazardous areas, or S800 Remote I/O may be used.
