August 27, 2024 – ABB, the global leader in industrial automation and power technology, announced the launch of the new LD800HSE 3BDH000320R02 Fieldbus Linking Device. As an innovative product in the field of industrial automation communication, this device provides efficient and reliable data exchange between the field equipment and the control system.

The LD800HSE 3BDH000320R02 is a high performance connectivity device capable of serving as a gateway between field equipment and HSE subnets on the H1 link. The device not only supports redundant use by connecting the H1 ports of two linked devices to the same H1 link, but also enables reliable failover and monitoring of primary and secondary devices through independent redundant links. LD 800HSE enables the access to field devices connected to the FOUNDATION Fieldbus (FF) from supervisory and control  systems as well as management consoles.”

The device is available in two versions, one for safe areas and the other for hazardous areas, ensuring a wide range of applications in different environments.

The LD800HSE 3BDH000320R02 supports connectivity between the High Speed Ethernet (HSE) protocol and up to four H1 links, allows the connected H1 devices to be transparently configured from the host system, and supports access to H1 device data blocks in client/server mode.

In addition, the LD800HSE 3BDH000320R02 has four separate H1 link masters (LAS) that support publish/subscribe (H1) functionality, allowing data to be republished from one H1 link to another or H1 to HSE. The LD 800HSE linking device serves as a gateway between the field devices on the H1 links and the HSE subnet.”

The introduction of the LD800HSE 3BDH000320R02 further enriches ABB’s product line in the field of industrial automation, providing customers with a high-performance, highly reliable communication solution. The device is now available, and customers can learn more about the product and purchase information through ABB’s official channels. With the continuous development of industrial automation technology, LD800HSE 3BDH000320R02 will provide a more intelligent and automated communication experience for related industries.
