ABB and Boliden have completed the deployment of Ethernet-APL-based instrumentation at the Kokkola zinc plant in Finland. The project integrates next-generation field devices with the ABB Ability System 800xA distributed control system already in operation, without replacing existing infrastructure. It is one of the first deployments of its kind in Finland and is part of the two companies' collaboration since 2014. The architecture allows coexistence with installed PROFIBUS PA instrumentation and was developed with Pepperl+Fuchs, plus an ABB Ability Field Information Manager pilot.
