RTU solution for huge and medium applications for transmission/sub transmission and distribution automation
In order to achieve a cost-efficient solution for requirements of different applications, swing frame or mounting plate rack solutions can be used. They can be realized as pure communication racks, pure I/O racks or a combination of both.
Higher system availability can be achieved by using redundant power supply, redundant communication and redundant CMUs for each rack.
The RTU560 rack based solution with its scalable platform and its highly advanced communication capabilities allows ABB's RTU to communicate to various sub RTUs, IEDs and control centers at the same time.
The RTU560 short rack together with a wide range of communication interfaces e.g. fiber and copper solutions as well as radio, GPRS/UMTS etc. meets the requirements for distribution applications. The compact dimension makes it an adequate solution for applications with space restrictions.
