ABB Releases First EPD for Its DCS Controllers

Nov 22, 2025

A New Step in Sustainable Automation
ABB has published its first Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for the AC 800M controller family. This makes ABB the first company to release an externally verified EPD for controllers used in distributed control systems (DCS) . The announcement is also meaningful for customers who depend on DCS spare parts, industrial spare parts, and long-term spare parts management in their plants.

Clear Environmental Data for Customers
The EPD gives customers verified information on the environmental impact of AC 800M controllers. The report follows ISO and EN standards and covers the full product lifecycle. With this data, companies can choose better Distributed Control System replacement parts and other industrial automation parts that support environmental goals and help meet regulatory requirements.

Reliable Controllers at the Core of System 800xA
The AC 800M controllers are a key part of ABB Ability™ System 800xA® and the Compact Product Suite. They offer high reliability and strong performance for critical operations. These controllers are widely used across energy, chemicals, water treatment, power generation, metals and pharmaceuticals. They also form the base for many DCS module supplier solutions used in automation systems around the world.

ABB’s Focus on Customer Sustainability
Senior Vice President of Process Automation Technology, explains that ABB aims to help customers operate in a cleaner and more efficient way. The new EPD supports this goal by giving clear and simple information. With transparency, customers can select controllers and industrial spare parts that match their sustainability targets and long-term operation plans.

Nine Models Covered in the EPD
The EPD includes nine AC 800M controller models. All models have dual Ethernet ports and IP20 protection. They also follow global environmental rules related to hazardous materials, chemical safety and electronic waste. This helps customers choose reliable and compliant Distributed Control System replacement parts and other automation components.

Conclusion
With the first verified EPD for DCS controllers, ABB sets a new standard in the automation industry. The AC 800M controller family continues to deliver strong performance while offering clear environmental data. This supports customers who need dependable controllers, industrial automation parts, and long-term spare parts management for their operations. ABB shows its commitment to sustainability while helping industries improve reliability and reduce environmental impact.
