ABB Wireless Controller ARC600
Wireless Controller ARC600 is a compact, solution-based device for remote controlling and monitoring of secondary substations, such as network disconnectors, load break switches and ring main units (RMU) in distribution networks. It enables the SCADA system to wirelessly monitor and control the field devices over the public communication infrastructure (cellular network). Wireless Controller ARC600 utilizes the built-in wireless communication features for reliable and secure end-to-end communication providing remote monitoring and control of three switching devices and can be expanded as required by using external I/O expansion modules.
The operational expenditure can be reduced by lowering the System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) and System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI), resulting in lower penalties for undelivered energy. Wireless Controller ARC600 is also ideally suited to be retrofitted to existing applications thus enabling the remote control of these devices and further extending the life cycle of the switching devices itself.
Typically, the IEC-104/DNP-IP protocol is utilized for communication to the SCADA system but for the existing installations with an IEC-101 line or modem and DNP serial, Wireless Controller ARC600 supports the SCADA system.
