Description

HIEE300661R1 UPC090AE: Product Overview
The HIEE300661R1 UPC090AE is a universal process controller module within ABB’s UPC series, designed for integration into distributed control systems (DCS) as a flexible processing unit for industrial process automation. Its role is to serve as a multi-purpose controller capable of executing custom logic, managing I/O communication, and coordinating subsystem interactions in applications ranging from continuous process control (e.g., distillation, reaction) to batch manufacturing (e.g., polymerization, blending). For industries such as oil refining, chemical production, and power generation, it addresses the need for a single module to handle diverse control tasks—reducing system complexity and lifecycle costs.
Functionally, the module runs user-defined logic (e.g., PID loops, model predictive control (MPC), sequence control) developed in ABB’s Control Builder M engineering tool, processing inputs from analog (4-20mA, RTD, thermocouple) and digital (24V DC) field devices. It supports distributed I/O via S800 series modules, handling up to 32,000 I/O points in non-redundant configurations. As part of the UPC series, the HIEE300661R1 UPC090AE leverages ABB’s DCS platform advantages, including uniform engineering workflows, hot-swappable components, and seamless integration with 800xA asset management tools. This design simplifies scaling and retrofits, enabling engineers to adapt the module to evolving process requirements without full system redesign.

Core Features & Customer Value
Flexible Role Configuration for Diverse Process Needs: The HIEE300661R1 UPC090AE can be configured as a regulatory controller, batch sequencer, data logger, or hybrid device via software. For engineers managing a chemical plant’s multipurpose unit (e.g., combining continuous reactor control with batch blending), this eliminates the need for separate modules, reducing cabinet space by 30% and simplifying wiring.
High-Performance Processing for Advanced Control: The PowerPC 750FX processor (600 MHz) and 512MB RAM enable execution of large logic programs, including advanced process control (APC) algorithms like MPC and historical data analysis. In a refinery’s crude distillation unit, this allows real-time optimization of tray temperatures while logging data for compliance reporting, improving yield by 2-3%.
Seamless Integration with ABB DCS Ecosystem: As a native UPC series component, the module integrates with ABB 800xA DCS, Control Builder M, and Asset Manager. Engineers reuse existing logic libraries and I/O configurations across projects, cutting commissioning time by 25%. Hot-swappable design minimizes downtime during maintenance, critical for continuous processes like oil refining.
Wide Environmental Tolerance for Harsh Installations: With an operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C and 5-95% RH non-condensing tolerance, the module withstands outdoor enclosures (e.g., power plant substations) and indoor harsh conditions (e.g., steel mill control rooms). Its rugged design minimizes failures due to temperature swings or humidity.
SIL 2 Certification for Safety-Critical Extensions: When paired with ABB safety logic solvers, the module meets SIL 2 (IEC 61508) requirements for safety-related functions like emergency shutdown (ESD) interlocks. For compliance officers, this simplifies audit documentation for standards like API 556 and OSHA 1910.119.

Typical Applications
The HIEE300661R1 UPC090AE is deployed in DCS environments requiring flexible process control. In a petroleum refinery’s fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit, it executes regenerator temperature control logic, manages 15,000 I/O points (pressure, flow, valve positions), and logs data for yield analysis. Its Ethernet IP interface sends real-time metrics to the refinery’s historian.
At a chemical plant’s polymer production line, the module coordinates batch sequencing (e.g., monomer addition, reactor heating) and communicates with a Siemens S7-1500 PLC via Profibus DP. The -40°C cold-start capability supports winter startups, while 4GB Flash storage retains batch records for quality audits.
In a municipal water treatment plant, the HIEE300661R1 UPC090AE aggregates data from 20 remote pump stations (via Modbus TCP), triggers alarms for filter clogging, and adjusts chemical dosing setpoints. Its SIL 2 certification validates use in safety interlocks for chlorine leak detection.
