HMA Concept 800 - Utilizing the ABB AC800 Process Controller operated via the HMA OS800 Operator Station

Based on wide experience with previous ABB systems, HMA has implemented a whole range of marine specific solutions for the ABB AC800 platform. The new AC800 utilizes standard Profibus I/O and is communicating via redundant IP network.

  • Integrated Power Management System
  • Integrated logging system with graphical presentation (all signals)
  • Based upon standard solution libraries with process control logic blocks and operator station display elements and object dialogs
  • Very competitive, not only because of the low price but also with respect of a lot of sophisticated functions for the demanding engineer
  • Standard HW modules with world wide support
In the ABB Control IT concept, all necessary HW for solving any marine control applications are available.

In the OS800, the displays are easily created and presented using standardized display components. For special needs, customized display components can be created:

   Diesel      Propulsion      Thruster

   Main switchboard      Power management      Pumps

ABB AC800M Process controller  
The HMA Concept 800 is using the new ABB AC800M Process Controller together with the ABB S800 I/O system. The AC800 is modular and scaleable in order to fit into any system, from smaller systems containing a few hundred signals to larger systems with several thousands of signals. The controller is using a redundant IP network with communication up to the HMA OS 800 Operator Station. Profibus is used for  I/O communication. The AC800 also supports most common used protocols.

System High Lights

  • Well proven standard hardware with world wide support
  • High speed redundant communication network, based upon IP standard technology
  • Low space and low power requirements
  • Standard programming languages based upon the IEC 61131-3 standard
  • Supports standard solutions for all commonly used marine components
  • Extremely short application generation time - from database to running system in minutes
  • Easy picture design and modification with standard tools and libraries
  • Easy definable customer solutions for control logic and display design
  • Interface for input/output data access from/to third party software
  • Integrated logging system and playback facilities, both local/remote and online/offline

Concept Solutions
The major building blocks of the HMA Concept 800 is based upon standard solution libraries. The HMA solution libraries are based upon a large number of earlier delivered projects with necessary expansions and adoptions for every new type of marine components.

Each solution is divided in two parts:
Process Controller - logic block where the signal interface and program logic is defined.
Operator Station - display element, object display and dialogs.

System generation method
As 99% of the logic for a marine system is based upon standard solutions, the HMA Concept 800 program blocks are automatically generated from the customer database. In the HMA solution library, the system designer will find a solution suitable for each control object, and insert each control object into the DB tool. When the DB is created, the controller logic is generated by a simple mouse click.

Programming method for project specific logic
The process AC800 process controller is programmed with the ABB Control Builder tool.
This tool is used to insert project specific logic into the controllers. Any logic may be generated with the powerful ABB SW programming languages supported with the controller.
The programming of the AC800 may be performed from any operator station or PC in the network.

Customer design project
The customer may design and generate the total system without any engagement from HMA at all. HMA will provide the customer with all necessary generation tools to build a total project. If the project requires special Solutions not in the library, this can be added by HMA, or by the customer.
