Description
ABB CM30 PID Process Controller
The ABB ControlMaster CM30 is a highly versatile, 1/4 DIN universal process controller. It is designed to be powerful yet easy to use, featuring a full-color TFT display and a scalable design that fits everything from basic temperature control to complex industrial processes.
Here is the detailed breakdown of the CM30 in English.
## 1. Product Overview
The CM30 is part of ABB’s ControlMaster series. It stands out for its crystal-clear display and intuitive interface, which reduces the need for constant manual referencing. It can be configured as a single or dual-loop controller, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
## 2. Technical Specifications (Parameters)
The CM30 is modular, meaning its hardware can be expanded based on your needs.

## 3. Key Product Advantages
-
Intuitive User Interface: Uses a full-text display (no cryptic codes) and a prompt-based configuration menu.
-
Highly Scalable: You can start with basic functions and add hardware/software options (like Math & Logic or Multi-loop control) as your process grows.
-
Superior Visibility: The high-contrast color display offers clear trend graphs, bar graphs, and alarm status.
-
Flexible Control Strategies: Includes PID, On/Off, Motorized Valve control, and Cascade control.
-
Robust Data Logging: Historical data and parameter configurations can be backed up or transferred via a front-mounted Micro-USB port.
## 4. Common Applications
The CM30 is a “workhorse” in industries where precision and reliability are non-negotiable:
-
Heat Treatment: Precise temperature ramping and soaking.
-
Water & Wastewater: Level control, flow monitoring, and chemical dosing.
-
Food & Beverage: Pasteurization and sterilization processes.
-
Power Generation: Boiler control and steam temperature regulation.
-
Chemical/Pharma: pH control and pressure regulation.
## 5. Important Considerations (Usage Notes)
Pro Tip: Before ordering, check your “Option Board” requirements. The CM30’s capabilities depend heavily on which internal boards are installed.
-
Environmental Shielding: While the front is IP66 rated, ensure the rear terminal area is protected from excessive moisture and corrosive gases.
-
Configuration Tool: While you can program it via the front keys, using the ABB ConfigAssist software (via USB) is much faster for complex setups.
-
Firmware Updates: Always check for the latest firmware to ensure compatibility with newer Modbus TCP protocols.
-
Wiring: To avoid signal interference, always separate high-voltage power lines from low-voltage sensor/analog input wires.
