Main Features and Advantages
Precision control performance: ABB Symphony Plus HSS13 achieves ±0.1% full-scale control accuracy, ensuring hydraulic actuators maintain consistent position and pressure even under dynamic load fluctuations. Its fast response time (≤10 ms) enables rapid adjustment to process changes, reducing product defects in manufacturing and improving process stability in power generation.
Seamless system integration: As a native component of ABB’s Symphony Plus DCS, ABB Symphony Plus HSS13 connects effortlessly with ABB’s AC800M controllers and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) without the need for additional adapters. Support for IEC 61850 and Modbus RTU protocols also facilitates integration with third-party systems, enhancing flexibility for retrofitting projects.
Robust and durable design: ABB Symphony Plus HSS13 operates reliably in extreme humidity (5%-95%) and temperature ranges (-10°C to 60°C), with industrial-grade components resisting electromagnetic interference (EMI) and voltage spikes. The compact design saves valuable panel space, while the IP20 rating protects internal components from dust and debris, extending service life.
Application Fields
In the power generation industry, ABB Symphony Plus HSS13 is widely used to control hydraulic actuators in steam and gas turbines, regulating valve positions to maintain optimal fuel-air ratios and steam pressure. This precision control enhances turbine efficiency, reduces emissions, and ensures safe operation during load changes—critical for coal-fired, natural gas, and renewable energy power plants.
The oil and gas sector relies on ABB Symphony Plus HSS13 for hydraulic control in wellhead systems, pipeline valves, and separator units. It accurately adjusts actuator positions to control flow rates and pressure, preventing over-pressurization and ensuring compliance with safety regulations in upstream exploration and downstream refining operations.
In manufacturing, ABB Symphony Plus HSS13 optimizes hydraulic systems in metal forming presses, injection molding machines, and rolling mills. By maintaining precise pressure and position control, it improves product uniformity and reduces material waste, making it ideal for automotive part manufacturing and heavy machinery production. Its versatility also extends to water treatment plants, controlling hydraulic gates and valves for flow regulation.
