2 ABB I Measurement Products - ControlMaster
Whether you’re a plant or process manager, electrical
engineer, process operator or maintenance engineer,
the future of process control instrumentation starts here.
ABB’s new ControlMaster range elevates process
monitoring and control to an altogether higher level.
ABB has used its experience in controllers and
indicators to create a new generation of process
control instruments that are more intuitive, easier to
operate and significantly more powerful in use.
ABB ControlMaster universal
process controllers
The concept at the very heart of ControlMaster is
‘Control Made Easy’. Each instrument provides a
comprehensive display of process status using crystal
clear, full color, TFT technology. The simple to use
user interface delivers clear text prompts that make
installation, commissioning and operation quick and
easy. And full scalability from the concise range makes
ControlMaster suitable for the most basic applications
through to complex, difficult to control processes.
Specify any new ControlMaster and you’ll be
choosing a tough, compact process partner. From
IP66 and NEMA 4X environmental protection all the
way through to powerful control functionality, with
cascade, feed forward and ratio control, plus advanced
predictive, adaptive and dual loop capabilities.
Then we put problem-solving diagnostics right
at your fingertips, plus total communications
flexibility - connect the way that suits you,
with Ethernet and Modbus RTU protocols.

A line up of 4 new instruments with the functionality and
capability you need to meet the challenges of an information
hungry process control industry.
From ABB’s legacy in controllers and indicators, the
new ControlMaster range of distinctive, accomplished
and innovative instruments not only focuses on
each model being easier and more powerful in use,
but with such a concise number of function-rich
units, it’s now so much easier to choose the right
ControlMaster for your process application.

Innovative, easy to use HMI
Each ControlMaster has an innovative HMI at the
heart of its operation, providing a common link
with other instrumentation products from ABB. So, if
you know one, you know them all. Operation is so easy
that you will be impressed by the efficiency of it all.
Advanced controls and functionality
On each of the 4 new ControlMaster instruments,
higher levels of functionality are right at your finger
tips. Features packed in include math, totalization
and a frequency input, logic, gain scheduling, split
output, valve control and real time alarms.
pPI predictive control enables processes with long dead
times to be easily controlled. Simple configuration needs
only three parameters - proportional band, integral time and
dead time. Adaptive control means automatic adjustment
of control response to correct changing process dynamics.
Valuable where processes have varying or uncontrolled
types of load, it provides continuous tuning for optimum
control efficiency 24/7. Dual loop control independently
manages two separate processes. The loops operate
entirely independently while ControlMaster’s flexibility
and functionality provides interlock and interaction
between both if required. Processes can be displayed
simultaneously on one screen without compromizing data.
Communications protocols
Ethernet communications provide high levels of connectivity.
Remote process monitoring is made easy via the integrated
web server. A ControlMaster can send emails upon alarm
conditions or critical process status, providing instant
notification to a plant supervisor. Modbus communications
(TCP or RTU) enable rapid connection to PLCs and control
systems. Modbus also provides simple, fast connection
of multiple ControlMasters to a ScreenMaster recorder
to create a multipoint control and data logging system.

Customizable full color TFT display
Clear, comprehensive process status and history
trending. Information messages and configuration
menus are displayed in full text, unabbreviated or
scrolled as on other commonly used process control
display technologies. Custom set-up is fast and uses
predefined display templates, as well as template
customization with unique display values and colors.
Scalable I/O and functionality
I/O, functionality and template availability is easily
expanded with additional plug-and-play input models
and function keys, making a single ControlMaster unit
fully scalable from basic through to complex control
applications. Users can now standardize on a single
product so operators have the familiarity of a single user
interface regardless of application requirements.
Historical Trending
ControlMaster features short-term trending capability,
providing invaluable information during commissioning
or for the history of unattended processes.
Diagnostics
To quickly alert an operator to important process information,
ControlMaster’s diagnostic functions clearly display
messages detailing fault conditions, abnormal process
status and maintenance requirements. At any time the
operator can also switch to an alarm and diagnostic status
display to gain an overview of any active messages.
Template based configuration
ControlMaster configuration is vastly simplified by
using application templates. Selecting the template
best suited to your process requirements automatically
configures I/O and control functionality while
display templates are selected automatically.

Application Scenarios
Universal by design, a ControlMaster is suitable
for use in a wide range of applications. Typical
configurations include:
Temperature control of a steam heated product
Boiler drum level control
pH control of effluent flow via acid or alkaline dosing Ratio control of product blending
Temperature control of electrically or gas heated furnaces
Independent dual loop control of temperature
and humidity in a climatic chamber
