Product Introduction
The ABB Bailey NIDS01 Digital Station Interface Module plays a critical role in ABB’s INFI 90 Distributed Control System (DCS), serving as the communication bridge between the DCS and various operator stations, engineering workstations, or supervisory systems. It ensures that process data, alarms, and control commands are transferred seamlessly and reliably between the control hardware and the human-machine interface (HMI) or supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system.
The NIDS01 is built for high reliability and industrial robustness, making it an ideal solution for large-scale process control systems requiring constant, high-speed communication. It is especially valued in environments where maintaining real-time data visibility and control is critical for plant performance and safety.
With ABB’s advanced communication protocols and compatibility with legacy systems, the NIDS01 supports modernization projects as well as new DCS implementations.
