1. System Overview & Application Scope
AC800PEC is ABB flagship high-performance real-time controller dedicated to power electronic closed-loop control, integrating ultra-fast FPGA hardware acceleration and PowerPC floating-point CPU, supporting control cycles down to 100μs for converter, energy storage, wind power, rail traction, SVG, UPS and medium-voltage drive systems. Three scalable system architectures for selection:
- Compact Architecture: Single CPU with integrated fast I/O, small cabinet, limited space mini converters
- Standard Architecture: Independent CPU + local high-speed I/O backplane, medium-power single converter unit
- Modular Distributed Architecture: Multi-CPU redundant + fiber optic remote I/O, large energy storage power station, multi-parallel converters
2. Core CPU Processor Module Selection
| Module Model | Order Code | Core Hardware Spec | Applicable Scenario |
|---|---|---|---|
| PPD113 | 3BHE023584R2634 | 750MHz PowerPC,64MB SDRAM/16MB Flash,6 fiber optic PowerLink slots,2×Ethernet,RS232/422 | Standard universal model, wind turbine, single energy storage unit, non-redundant control |
| PPD115A01 | 3BHE017628R0001 | Enhanced CPU, expanded memory, redundant fiber bus support, SIL2 compliance | Redundant control, medium-high power converter, grid-connected energy storage station |
| XUD194 | 3BHE018137R0001 | High-end multi-task processor, max 36 bidirectional fiber links, Matlab/Simulink auto-code supported | Large multi-parallel converter, rail traction, 100MVA+ static var generator |
| PCD231 | 3BHE025541R0101 | Compact integrated CPU, built-in partial fast I/O, small cabinet limited space | Mini UPS, small single-phase converter, cabinet space restricted equipment |
Selection Tip: Redundant control system must match dual PPD115A01 or XUD194 with dual backplane and redundant power supply; PPD113 is only for single non-redundant control systems.

3.2 System Power Supply Modules
- 24VDC Standard Power Module:Single output 10A, non-redundant small system matching
