ABB PM573-ETH 1SAP130300R0271
Product Introduction
The ABB PM573-ETH (1SAP130300R0271) is a cutting-edge programmable logic controller within ABB’s AC500 PLC series, engineered for real-time industrial automation with native Ethernet integration. This module combines deterministic control capabilities with IIoT connectivity, serving as the computational core for complex machinery synchronization and process optimization. As part of the AC500-eCo platform, the PM573-ETH interfaces seamlessly with ABB’s XC expansion racks and supports distributed I/O topologies through its dual Gigabit ports.
Designed for demanding applications, the ABB PM573-ETH executes safety-rated logic (SIL 2) while simultaneously handling motion control, batch processing, and data logging. Its dual-core architecture segregates real-time tasks from communication protocols, ensuring nanosecond-precision timing for servo loops. The module’s ruggedized design and conformal coating make it suitable for deployment in food processing plants, automotive assembly lines, and offshore energy platforms where vibration, humidity, and electromagnetic interference challenge conventional controllers.
Core Advantages and Technical Highlights
Deterministic Networking: Dual Gigabit ports with PROFINET IRT Class C support enable ≤1 µs jitter for synchronized multi-axis robotics. Time-Aware Shaper (IEEE 802.1Qbv) guarantees motion control packet delivery even during network congestion.
Unified Engineering Environment: Program the PM573-ETH using ABB’s Automation Builder, featuring simulation-driven development and version control. Cross-compilation from MATLAB/Simulink models accelerates control algorithm deployment.
Cyber-Physical Security: Hardware-enforced IEC 62443-4-2 compliance includes secure boot with TPM 2.0, encrypted firmware updates, and role-based access control. OPC UA PubSub supports encrypted MQTT messaging to ABB Ability™ cloud.
Extreme Ruggedness: -25°C cold-start capability without heaters. Vibration resistance to 5g (10–500 Hz) validated per IEC 60068-2-6. IP67-rated ports withstand high-pressure washdown in pharmaceutical facilities.
Typical Application Scenarios
In automated packaging lines, the ABB PM573-ETH synchronizes 12-axis delta robots via EtherNet/IP CIP Motion. Its real-time clock drift (<1 ppm) ensures precise carton sealing timing while OPC UA integrates weigh-scale data with MES systems.
For marine ballast control, the PM573-ETH‘s DNV-GL certification enables deployment on LNG carriers. Dual-redundant Ethernet rings (MRP) maintain pump control during cable damage, while SIL 2 logic prevents overpressure scenarios.
In photovoltaic module manufacturing, the controller’s analog input filtering (16-bit resolution) precisely tracks furnace temperatures. Secure OPC UA connections feed process data to ERP systems without additional gateways.
