Hc900 Redundancy

The document describes Honeywell's HC900 redundant controller system. [1] It provides redundancy for critical controller components to prevent single points of failure. [2] This includes redundant CPUs, power supplies, communication networks, and I/O. [3] The system offers automatic changeover between redundant components with no interruption in control and is affordable starting under $16K.

HC900 Redundancy

• Provides “no single point of failure” for:


– Controller CPU

– Controller Power Supply

– Controller communications to a dual Plant Network

– Controller communications to its I/O

– I/O Power supply (Optional)

• Provides “bumpless transfer” between redundant controllers

• Maintains form / fit / function consistency with non-redundant


HC900 Controllers

• Provides ease of configuration

• Offers a competitive price

• All user and process interaction is with the Lead CPU.


Either CPU can be the Lead
Both CPUs receive Inputs
Both CPUs execute function blocks
Lead CPU writes outputs
• All communication is with the Lead CPU
• Lead CPU detects a Reserve CPU and automatically configures the Reserve
• Redundant Switch Module (RSM) identifies the Lead and Reserve CPUs
• RSM supports manual Fail-over of the Lead CPU
• Function Block execution resumes on start of next scan following a fail-over
