Process Automation Solution – ABB PM153 3BSE003644R1 | Advant Controller Series
Where This Product Is Used
The ABB PM153 (Part No. 3BSE003644R1) is a central processor module from ABB’s Advant Controller 450 (AC450) platform — a proven DCS architecture widely deployed across continuous and batch process industries. This module is specified wherever engineers require deterministic scan-cycle execution, high-availability redundancy, and seamless integration with ABB’s Master Bus (MB300) and PROFIBUS networks.
Typical deployment environments include:
- Oil & Gas: Upstream wellhead control, midstream pipeline SCADA, and downstream refinery unit operations (CDU, HDS, FCC).
- Pulp & Paper: Digester control, bleach plant sequencing, and recovery boiler safety interlocks.
- Power Generation: Turbine governor backup, boiler combustion management, and balance-of-plant (BOP) automation.
- Chemical & Petrochemical: Reactor temperature/pressure loops, batch recipe execution, and SIL-rated ESD systems.
- Water & Wastewater: Pump station sequencing, dosing control, and SCADA remote I/O expansion.
- Metals & Mining: Furnace atmosphere control, conveyor interlocking, and ore-processing PID loops.

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- Proven AC450 Platform Longevity: The Advant Controller 450 has an installed base spanning 30+ years. The PM153 remains the preferred CPU for brownfield sites that cannot justify a full migration to System 800xA.
- Deterministic Scan Cycle: Fixed-priority task scheduling ensures loop execution times are predictable — critical for tight PID tuning in exothermic reactors and turbine controls.
- Hot-Standby Redundancy: Paired PM153 modules switch in <100 ms on fault detection, meeting IEC 61511 availability targets for SIL 1–2 applications.
- MB300 Native Integration: Direct backplane communication with S800 I/O clusters eliminates gateway latency and simplifies network topology.
- Backward Compatibility: Firmware-compatible with existing AC450 cabinets — no rack or wiring changes required for a like-for-like replacement.
- Lifecycle Spare Strategy: Stocking PM153 units is the lowest-risk approach to extending AC450 system life while a migration roadmap is developed.

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Can the PM153 replace an older PM150 or PM151 in an existing AC450 rack?
A: In most cases, yes — the PM153 is backward-compatible with earlier AC450 subrack generations. Firmware and hardware revision compatibility should be confirmed against your existing system’s release notes before installation.
Q: Is the PM153 suitable for SIL 2 safety applications?
A: The AC450 platform with redundant PM153 CPUs has been applied in SIL 1–2 ESD systems. A formal SIL assessment per IEC 61511 is required; contact ABB or a certified functional safety engineer for project-specific validation.
Q: What programming software is required?
A: ABB Master Pieces 200/1 (MP200/1) is the native engineering tool. Some sites also use ABB Control Builder M for hybrid AC450/800xA environments.
Q: Do you supply the PM153 with a warranty?
A: Yes. Konmask.com provides a 90-day tested-and-functional warranty on all surplus modules. New/factory-sealed units carry the original ABB warranty. Terms available on request.
Q: Can you supply a matched redundant pair (two PM153 units)?
A: Yes. We can supply matched firmware-revision pairs for hot-standby redundancy. Specify “redundant pair” when submitting your inquiry.
Q: What is the lead time?
A: In-stock units ship within 1–3 business days. For out-of-stock items, typical sourcing lead time is 2–4 weeks depending on global availability.
