Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 4A PlantPAx system consists of these system elements.Table 1 - System Element DescriptionsSystem Element DescriptionProcess Automation System Server (PASS) The PASS is a required system element that can host displays, alarms, and data connections to controllers. Multiple PASS servers can be used to provide additional system capacity or to create logical segregation of application content that is based on the process.For smaller systems, the PASS - C (consolidated PASS server) supports functions that otherwise would be hosted on application servers.Operator workstation (OWS) and Application server (AppServ-OWS)The OWS and AppServ-OWS provides an interactive graphical interface to monitor and control the process. The AppServ-OWS uses Microsoft® Remote Desktop Services (RDS) technology to serve multiple instances of the OWS as thin clients from one server. The technology provides for FactoryTalk® View SE thin clients that run applications and process data on a remote computer.Engineering workstation (EWS) and Application server (AppServ-EWS)The EWS and AppServ-EWS provides a central location for configuring the system and monitoring/maintaining system operation. The AppServ-EWS uses Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (RDS) technology to serve multiple instances of the EWS as thin clients from one server. The technology provides for FactoryTalk View SE thin clients that run applications and process data on a remote computer.AppServ-Asset management The asset management server acts as a centralized tool for managing automation-related asset information (both Rockwell Automation and third-party assets). The asset management application server includes capabilities for asset inventory, source control, audits, change notifications, reporting, and security.AppServ-Batch The batch application server provides comprehensive batch management, including unit supervision, recipe management, process management, and material management. The batch application server can be linked with visualization elements on the OWS and configuration clients on the EWS.AppServ-Info (Historian, VantagePoint®, SQL) Data management storage can include a Historian or SQL server. There are three different types of AppServ-Info servers depending on the function that is being provided: FactoryTalk® Historian software, FactoryTalk® VantagePoint® software, and the SQL server.Controllers The ControlLogix and CompactLogix controllers support continuous process and batch applications. These controllers also support discrete and motion applications.Independent workstation (IndWS) The independent workstation acts as a PASS, EWS, and OWS for single-station systems(independent class).Domain controller A domain controller is a server that manages security authentication requests within the Windows® server domain. PlantPAx uses a domain controller to store user account information, authenticate users, and enforce security policies.

Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 9System InfrastructureWhen building your system, you must decide whether your server and client workstations are in a virtual or traditional environment. Traditional, for our purposes, means one operating system (OS) that is natively on one computer. Virtual machines are hardware independent; not tied directly to a specific hardware or OS.Traditional InfrastructureIn a traditional infrastructure, each server and workstation is installed on its own physical machine. Software and hardware updates are performed on each server and workstation individually. In addition, there is a conventional relationship between switch ports and servers ports and a standard network management.Rockwell automation offers the following traditional templates. For all other system elements, you install your operating system and software directly on the physical computer.Virtual InfrastructureVirtualization breaks the dependency between operating system and physical hardware. Multiple virtual machines (VMs) can run different operating systems and applications from various locations on the same server. You can upgrade hardware without stopping your operation or replacing the operating system on the server or workstation system elements, thus reducing downtime and maintenance costs.A VM behaves exactly like a physical computer because the VM contains its own ‘virtual’ CPU, RAM, hard disk drive, and network interface card. The VM runs as an isolated guest OS installation.Table 2 - Installation Files on USB DevicesSystem Element Cat.

Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 11System Infrastructure Each template USB device includes one OS system for each applicable type. If you are considering virtualization, we suggest that you visit the Rockwell Automation Industrial Networks website, athttps://www.rockwellautomation.com/en_NA/capabilities/industrial-networks/overview.page?.Template DistributionObtain PlantPAx virtual image templates by the following methods:Media -- Order a physical copy of the virtual image template. Only the latest virtual image templates are available via physical media. The end user is responsible for acquiring the appropriate Microsoft OS license for Server 2016 or Windows 10.Electronic Software Delivery (ESD) -- You must purchase licensed media before downloading an electronic copy of the virtual image template from the Product Compatibility and Download Center (PCDC) website. The latest and previous versions of the virtual image templates are available for download from the PCDC.For additional information, see the PlantPAx Template User Manual, publication 9528-UM001.VMware Component RequirementsThe VMware vCenter server provides a centralized platform for managing your VMware vSphere environments. The virtual desktop and virtual server require resources from the physical infrastructure to operate. When you purchase hardware, consider future expansion plans by adding an additional 20…30% of resources. VMware makes it simple to scale the system size upward by adding servers in the future to provide additional resources.Remember to divide the total system requirements by the minimum number of servers that are required to run the system at any given time. For example, with a three-server system that uses VMware fault tolerance or high availability, you divide by two. This type of calculation makes sure that the system can continue to run with two servers if one server fails.AppServ-Info (SQL) 9528-APPSQLENM USB device contains the virtual image template for AppServ-Info (SQL).

12 Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021System Infrastructure VMware SizingVirtual Machines are limited by the CPU megahertz of the physical core. A common misconception is that a VM can use as much CPU megahertz as needed from the combined total available. One vCPU VM never uses more megahertz than the maximum of one CPU/core. If a VM has two vCPUs, it never uses more megahertz than the maximum of each CPU/core.Reference Network TopologiesPlantPAx reference topologies take advantage of converged architectures, that support:• Access to device webpages throughout the architecture• Full visibility to the network via tools such as FactoryTalk® Network Manager™ • Access to the data in smart process devices from outside the local networkThese reference topologies include:• Example 1: Redundant PRP Topology• Example 2: Resilient DLR Topology• Example 3: Simplex - Star Topology• Example 4A: PRP Skid and MCC Lineup• Example 4B: DLR Skid and MCC Lineup• Example 4C: Simplex Skid and MCC LineupTable 5 - CPU and PlantPAx Resource RequirementsServer and Workstation Type vCPU vRAM (GB) vHardDisk (GB)Process Automation Domain Controller (PADC) 1 4 40Process Automation System Server (PASS) 4 16 60Operator Workstation (OWS) 2 4 40Engineering Workstation (EWS) 2 8 100Operator Workstation Application Server (AppServ-OWS) 8 16 60Engineering Workstation Application Server (AppServ-EWS) 4 16 100Information Management Application Server Historian (AppServ-Info Historian) 2 4 120Information Management Application Server VantagePoint (AppServ-Info VantagePoint) 2 4 60Information Management Application Server SQL (AppServ-Info SQL) 2 4 120Asset Management Server (AppServ-Asset) 2 4 60Batch Management Server (AppServ-Batch) 2 4 60VMware vCenter Server 2 4 40System Reservation (specify percent to be reserved) 10 —

Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 13System Infrastructure Example 1: Redundant PRP TopologyRedundant PRP topology is used for critical operations, and includes infrastructure duplication, multiple fault tolerance capability, zero recovery time within the PRP zone, and minimal recovery time for traffic leaving the PRP zone. Redundant PRP recommendations include:• 10 controllers per topology (pair of redundant Redboxes)• In a redundant Redbox configuration, do not connect anything other PRP and uplink ports• Ports in the PRP channel group cannot be configured for other resiliency protocol, such as DLR or Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP).Table 6 - Properties of Example 1 ArchitectureRedundant PRP TopologyWhy would I select this architecture?Most robust option for operations that require high availability. PRP requires double the cabling and components to establish no single point of failure. For a true no single point of failure capabilities, PlantPAx recommends redundant power sources along with separate physical paths for media.What protocols does it use?• Implementation of EtherChannel for hardware redundancy between servers and workstations• EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) provides Layer 3 routing capabilities• HSRP provides redundant PRP ‘RedBox’ functionality• PRP provides dual connectivity between two devices• RedBox (redundancy box) is a switch with PRP technology that connects devices without PRP technology to both LAN A and LAN BWhat components do I need?• Cisco® Catalyst® 9300 or 3850 stack switches• Redundant application servers via physical or virtualized environments• Pair of Layer 3 PRP enabled Stratix® switches:– Stratix 5410 (used if GPS, multiple PRP channels, rack-mount format, or AC power is required) –Stratix 5400• Duplicate LAN A/B Layer 2 infrastructure switches:–Stratix 5400–Stratix 5700• Non-PRP devices require Stratix 5400 switch to enable VDAN support• 1756 and 5094 I/O families support PRPApplication Servers(redundant)Cisco 9300 (stacking)Stratix 5400 or 5410 Stratix 5400LAN ALAN BRedundant ControllersI/O RackSupervisory Network Control Network Layer 3 Routed Trunk - (Native HSRP (Configuration Secondary Logix EtherChannelRedBox (PRP)LAN-A / LAN-B Cisco Stack Stratix 5700Stratix 5400MCCOperator and Engineering Workstations

14 Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021System Infrastructure Example 2: Resilient DLR TopologyResilient DLR topology helps prevent communication loss between devices if a fault occurs. Multiport devices (embedded EtherNet/IP™ ports) equipped with DLR technology connect directly to neighboring nodes and form a ring topology at the end devices. If a break in the network is detected, the network provides an alternate forwarding path for the data to help recover the network. DLR recommendations include:• 10 controllers per topology• In a dual gateway configuration, do not connect anything other DLR and uplink ports• Maximum of 50 switch nodes per ring• Single VLAN per ring• PlantPAx does not recommend DLR trunking or DLR DHCP• Place at least 1 meter of cable between each DLR deviceTable 7 - Properties of Example 2 ArchitectureResilient DLR TopologyWhy would I select this architecture?This architecture provides a means to detect, monitor, manage, and recover from one fault ring-based network. You can use redundant gateways to provide DLR network resiliency to the rest of the network. What protocols does it use?• Implementation of EtherChannel for hardware redundancy between servers and workstations• EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) provides Layer 3 routing capabilities; this protocol is used within the Cisco Catalyst switches• DLR is a ring topology that recovers after one point of failure (3 msec or less)What components do I need?• Cisco Catalyst 3850, 9300 stack switches• Redundant application servers via physical or virtualized environments• DLR gateway capable switches (if you need multiple rings, use a Stratix 5400 or 5410 switch)• DLR capable Stratix switches• DLR capable Ethernet modulesCheck I/O device specifications to verify DLR support.MCCOperator and Engineering WorkstationsApplication Servers(hypervisor)Secondary ControllerPrimary Controller1715 Redundant I/OField DevicesCisco 9300 (stacking)Stratix 5400Stratix 5700EtherChannelCisco Stack DLR Gateway Supervisory Network Control Network Layer 3 Routed Trunk - (Native HSRP (Configuration Secondary Logix

Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 19Servers and WorkstationsThe supervisory layer of the PlantPAx system can include several servers and workstations. This section explains the server and workstation system elements to help you define a bill of materials.PASS ServersThe Process Automation System Server (PASS) is a required system element that hosts essential software components to run the system. The essential software components include the data server, HMI server, and alarm server.You must determine how many PASS servers are needed for your architecture. If your system requires multiple servers, acquaint yourself with the following descriptions of the data, HMI, and alarm servers.Table 11 - PASS Server Software ComponentsSoftware Components DescriptionFactoryTalk Directory (FTD) server(1)(1) In redundant PASS configurations, this component is included on the primary PASS only.Secures information from multiple Rockwell Automation software components across multiple computers and allows central administration throughout the PlantPAx system. Application components, such as display and security settings, can be stored in their original environments and made available to the entire PlantPAx system without the need for duplication.FactoryTalk® Activation server(1)The FactoryTalk Activation server is part of the FactoryTalk® Services Platform. The server is used for FactoryTalk-enabled software products to be activated via files generated by Rockwell Automation over the Internet. This server essentially manages the files that are required to license Rockwell Automation products on the PlantPAx system.FactoryTalk View HMI server The human machine interface (HMI) server is configured within your FactoryTalk® View SE application. The HMI server stores HMI project components, such as graphic displays, and serves these components to OWSs upon request. The HMI server can also manage tag databases and log historical data. Multiple HMI servers can exist on the PlantPAx system. Each HMI server must be on a separate PASS. FactoryTalk View Data server The Data server component provides access to information from the process controllers to servers and workstations on the PlantPAx system. FactoryTalk View software supports two types of data servers: Rockwell Automation Device servers (FactoryTalk® Linx software) and OPC Data servers. The Data server that is mentioned in PlantPAx documentation generally refers to the Rockwell Automation Device servers. Data servers are configured within your FactoryTalk View SE application. Multiple data servers can exist on the PlantPAx system. FactoryTalk View Alarm and Event server The Alarm and Event server publishes information from controllers and servers available to all subscribing OWSs. Alarm and Event servers are configured within your FactoryTalk View SE application. You can install only one Alarm and Event server on a PASS.• PlantPAx System Release 5. supports Logix tag-based alarms. These device level, tag-based alarms monitor a tag value to determine the alarm condition. Tag-based alarms are not part of the logic program and do not increase the scan time for a project. The controller caches information, such as timestamps, alarm states, and associated tag values in a 1000 KB buffer. The controller transmits the information to subscribing FactoryTalk Alarm & Event servers.• For server tag-based alarms a FactoryTalk® Alarms and Events server monitors controllers for alarm conditions through data servers and publishes event information that can be displayed and logged.OptionalFactoryTalk Batch client software If a Batch Application server is being used on the system, FactoryTalk Batch client components are required to support replication of batch-related objects on the displays to the OWS.

20 Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021Servers and Workstations Determine the Number of PASS ServersThe following graphics illustrate how many servers are needed when you are not considering redundancy options.Table 12 - Non-redundant Server OptionsServer Options DescriptionOption 1 - One PASS System Server This option has all essential software components that are housed in one PASS server. The components are FTD, Data server, HMI server, and alarm and event server. There are additional system elements, such as batch management, asset management, FactoryTalk Historian, and FactoryTalk VantagePoint. You can deploy these elements on separate servers or you can deploy elements on the same server as detailed in Option 2.One HMI server license is required.Option 2 - One PASS Consolidated Server (small systems) The PASS - C option is for valid small systems with fewer than 2000 I/O points. With this option, you can locate multiple system elements on the same physical computer.A bootable USB device contains the system elements that are shown in the illustration for Option 2. One HMI server license is required.Option 3 - Multiple PASS Servers (additional data capacity) This option contains all software components in one server as shown in Option 1. Option 3 also adds another server for extra data and alarm capacity without adding another HMI server.If the PASS server is being used as a data server, and additional capacity is needed, you can add more PASS servers. Use the PSE to determine if more PASS servers are needed.We recommend that you have an HMI server on the PASS if you are segregating the application into individual operational areas. See Option 4.One HMI server license is required.Option 4 - Multiple PASS Servers (logically segregated plant) Place the FTD on its own server to manage applications that exist on multiple client servers. If an area must be shut down, the other separate areas are not affected because the FTD is on its own server. For example, you can perform maintenance on one area without affecting another operational area of the plant. FTD can be a workstation class machine.An HMI server license is required for each PASS that contains an HMI server.The benefits of placing the FactoryTalk Directory on a dedicated server include:• System Startup: It is best if the FTD is the first component to start and the last to stop. Because most FactoryTalk software products rely on the various services provided by the FTD, the lowest risk scenario is to have it available as these products are initializing.• Compatibility: While all versions are generally compatible, the FTD is occasionally required to be at the highest version of FTSP installed in the system. This requirement can interfere with another FactoryTalk component if the FTD is co-located with another product.• Patching/Upgrading: Patching an FTD hosted on a dedicated computer translates to minimum system downtime, as it is not affecting the operation of other FactoryTalk components while rebooting.• Redundancy: In redundant systems (for example, FactoryTalk View SE, FactoryTalk® Linx, FactoryTalk Alarms and Events), it is best if the FTD remains available during any failover scenarios. While the redundant server pair can function without the presence of the FTD, the lowest risk scenario is keeping it available.FTDData serverHMI serverAlarm server FTDData serverHMI serverAlarm serverHistorianVantagePointAssetCentre SQL Data serverAlarm serverFTDData serverHMI serverAlarm serverHMI serverData serverHMI serverAlarm serverData serverHMI serverAlarm serverFTD

Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 21Servers and Workstations Redundancy can be added to be sure of the availability of critical operations. For PASS servers, you can choose the level of redundancy that you need. When a PASS is made redundant, typically all above elements that are hosted on the PASS are made redundant. The PASS-C can be made redundant by duplicating the hardware as well. Redundant data servers impact controller memory and communication bandwidth.The PASS requires that you purchase an HMI server license. If the PASS server is not being used as an HMI server, then no license purchase is required. Make sure to account for process displays, faceplates, and navigation devices in your display count. All displays of the Rockwell Automation Library of Process Objects count against your display count license.Table 13 - PASS RequirementsCategory Requirement(1)(1) All numbers and figures are referenced for initial sizing only. If needed, adjust these values for system performance.Hardware - virtual infrastructure Required: •4 vCPU•16 GB vRAM min•60 GB vHardDiskRecommended CPU and memory allocation:• High priority Resource poolHardware - traditional infrastructure The PASS must be installed on server-class hardware.

Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 35Controllers, Field Networks, and I/OThe optimal number of controllers for the PlantPAx system depends on the size of your application, physical layout of your plant, and the design of your process. Consider segregating non-related process equipment into separate controllers so that maintenance activities in one area do not impact the operation of another area.PlantPAx system release 5.0 adds process controllers to the Logix 5000™ family of controllers. The process controller is an extension of the Logix 5000 controller family that focuses on plantwide process control. The process controller is preconfigured with a default process tasking model and dedicated PlantPAx process instructions optimized for process applications to improve design and deployment efforts.Regardless of which type of controller that you use, controllers are capacity limited. This capacity can be roughly estimated based on I/O count, but is also greatly impacted by the design of your application. These limitations can include the amount of automation code that is required, the amount of information being read by supervisory applications, and the number of alarms configured in your system.Simplex ControllersNon-redundant controllers are referred to as simplex controllers..Table 51 - Process and Standard Controller HardwareCategory Cat.

Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 52Process Safety SystemsA process automation solution often includes the requirement for an integrated safety system as part of the overall Safety Instrumented System (SIS) requirements for a process facility. The SIS logic solver is a separate but integrated technology that can use common or diverse technology to meet the safety integrity needs for any process application. The SIS logic solver requirements can include fault tolerance, fail-safe, or a mix of architecture and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) requirements. Fault tolerance means that plant operation is maintained if a fault occurs, while fail-safe means that the SIS initiates a shutdown upon detecting a fault.Safe, reliable systems safeguard people, property, the environment, and company or corporate reputations. Third-party certification for applying technologies in applications up to a specific SIL level significantly reduces complexity when complying with national and international process safety standards worldwide.Process safety technology selection is based on functional and target SIL requirements, which are defined in the projects Safety Requirements Specification (SRS). For example, if the SRS requirement is for the Safety Instrumented Function to fail safely upon a fault, you can select a fail-safe only technology. If however, some level of fault tolerance is defined for your process safety system, you can select a fault tolerant technology.Table 69 - Typical SIL and Architecture System RequirementsProcess Safety Platform Safety Application Architecture Typical SIL Range DemandEmergency shutdown/SIS Fault Tolerant Up to SIL 3 Low/HighFire and gas SIL 2 LowHigh integrity pressure system SIL 3Chemical processing Up to SIL 3 HighRefiningLow/HighProcess Safety Platform Safety Application Architecture Typical SIL Range DemandBurner management (continuous process)Fault Tolerant Up to SIL 3 HighSubsea(1)(1) The AADvance solution is available in a Eurocard format, qualified for Subsea production applications under ISO13628-6.SIL 2 LowPower generatorsProcess Safety Platform Safety Application Architecture Typical SIL Range DemandBurner management (power and utilities) Fail-safe SIL 2 High(2)(2) ControlLogix controllers are limited to a demand rate not to exceed 10 demands per year.

Rockwell Automation Publication PROCES-SG001N-EN-P - March 2021 53Process Safety Systems There are different levels of fault tolerance available. For example:• 1oo2d refers to a voting and degradation architecture where diagnostics are used to determine the validity of two values or states. When both values are ‘healthy’, then either one out of the two (1oo2) available is used in the outcome of the safety instrumented function (SIF). When one of the two values or states is determined to be ‘invalid’, then that value or state is no longer considered when determining the outcome of the SIF. (The voting degrades to 1oo1, one out of the remaining good one). This dramatically reduces the spurious trip rate of a basic 1oo2 architecture, while maintaining safety performance.• 2oo3 refers to a voting and degradation architecture where comparison diagnostics are used to determine the outcome of the SIF. Two ‘out of’ the three (2oo3) available values or states are required to determine the outcome of a SIF. This architecture, often referred to as Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR), lets a failed value or state be ignored when resolving the SIF. ControlLogix SIL 2 SystemsControlLogix supports process safety applications up to SIL 2 that require fault tolerance and redundancy. ControlLogix supports 1oo2d fault tolerance with the 1715 I/O system. However, ControlLogix redundancy does not use a voting mechanism, rather it acts as a hot standby. The components of the 1715 I/O system comprise a pair of partnered Ethernet adapters that communicate to ControlLogix controllers via an EtherNet/IP network, and digital and analog I/O modules that are configurable in simplex and duplex modes.The ControlLogix controller complies with the requirements of the relevant standards (SIL 2 according to IEC 61508) and can be used in low demand applications up to SIL 2 according to IEC 61508). The instructions of the associated Safety Reference Manual and User Manuals are to be considered.ControlLogix SIL 2 systems use the same programming software and data interfaces as used for process control on the PlantPAx system. The hardware that is used for process safety must be dedicated for process safety applications. Specific hardware, firmware revisions, and software versions are required to meet SIL certifications. AADvance and Trusted SIL 2, SIL 3, and TMR SystemsDiverse SIS logic solvers use different hardware and software platforms for process safety applications than that used for process control on the PlantPAx system. This approach is used to minimize common cause faults from influencing the overall safety integrity. Triple redundancy minimizes the possibility of any single component failure to cause a spurious or spurious trip. Diverse process safety integrates with the basic process control on the PlantPAx system by using CIP™ connectivity including profile support in the Studio 5000 Logix Designer application (AADvance) or via OPC connectivity (AADvance or Trusted®).Both the Trusted and AADvance systems share a common EtherNet/IP network within a PlantPAx system. In addition, AADvance and Trusted support redundant Ethernet networks, while the AADvance system supports the CIP producer and consumer communication protocol.In addition to the comparison diagnostics, active diagnostics are also used to validate states and values that are used in the outcome of the SIF.Table 70 - Diverse SIL 2 and SIL 3 ProductsCategory DescriptionAADvance system • Configurable for SIL 2 and SIL 3• Scalable redundancy for fault tolerance• Simplex, duplex, or triplex configurationTrusted system Trusted technology uses 3-2-0 (3-2-2-0 optionally) fault-tolerant control to help eliminate spurious trips. Triple modular redundancy (TMR) uses majority voting to identify a source of failure. Available with OPC or CIP integration.

Rockwell Automation provides premier integration between ControlLogix systems and Endress+Hauser SIL-rated instruments. For more details, see the Endress+Hauser websiteat https://www.endress.com.PowerFlex SIL 2 and SIL 3 SystemsPowerFlex AC drives offer SIL ratings up to and including SIL 3. Specifically, the PowerFlex 525 AC drive offers Safe Torque Off (STO) as a standard embedded feature with a safety rating of PLd/SIL2 Cat. 3. The PowerFlex 753 and 755 AC drives are available with optional STO functionality with a safety rating of PLe/SIL3 Cat. 3. In addition, the PowerFlex 753 and 755 offer a Safe Speed Monitor option for applications that can benefit from access to a safety zone while there is limited motion. The Safe Speed Monitor option has a rating of PLe/SIL3 Cat. 4.PowerFlex STO functionality is designed to help safely remove power from the gate firing circuits of the output power devices (IGBTs). This functionality helps prevent the output power devices from switching in the pattern necessary to generate AC power to the motor. PowerFlex AC drives can be used in combination with other safety devices to satisfy the requirements of IEC 61508, IEC 61800-5-2 SIL 3, ISO 13849-1 PLe, and Category 3 for STO.For more information, see the PowerFlex Low Voltage AC Drives Selection Guide, publication PFLEX-SG002.Table 71 - Additional ResourcesResource DescriptionAADvance Controller Solutions Handbook, publication ICSTT-RM447 Explains the features, performance, and functionality of the AADvance controller and systems.
