PLCs, Power Supplies & Others

The ABB COMMANDER 100 (C100) is a legacy 1/8 DIN universal process controller. While no longer in active production by ABB, it remains in operation within many industrial systems. This compact device was designed for reliable single-loop control and monitoring applications.

Compact Design with Versatile Input Capability

The C100 features a highly compact 1/8 DIN format for space-efficient panel mounting. Its universal process input can accept a wide range of standard analog signals. Furthermore, this input includes an integrated transmitter power supply for two-wire sensors.

Core Control and Configuration Features

This controller utilizes a functional PID algorithm for precise process regulation. It includes a “one-shot” auto-tune feature for simplified loop optimization. Moreover, configuration is possible via its front face, quick code, or a connected PC for flexibility.

Designed for Secure and Reliable Operation

The ABB COMMANDER 100 was designed with distinct operator and configuration modes. This security feature helps prevent unauthorized changes to control parameters. Consequently, it ensures stable and reliable operation in its installed process loops.

Application Context and Modern Successor

This controller was commonly used for temperature, pressure, or flow control tasks. For users seeking an upgrade path, ABB recommends the ScreenMaster SM500F field-mount recorder. Therefore, the C100 represents a proven piece of automation history, now succeeded by more advanced technology.
