CI830 3BSE013252R1 ABB MODULE
Technical Parameters:
System Architecture: High-performance fieldbus communication interface module designed to connect S800 I/O modules to PROFIBUS DP master systems.
Communication Protocol: Fully compliant with PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS DP-V1 fieldbus standards.
Data Transmission Rate: Supports standard PROFIBUS transmission speeds from 9.6 kbit/s up to 12 Mbit/s with auto-baud rate detection.
Physical Interfaces: Equipped with a 9-pin D-Sub female connector (RS-485) for connection to the PROFIBUS DP network.
System Capacity: Controls and bridges up to 12 S800 I/O modules on the direct ModuleBus expansion interface.
Galvanic Isolation & Shielding: Integrated optoelectronic isolation and electrical shielding protecting processing circuits from field electrical transients and electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Diagnostic Telemetry: Front-panel LED status indicators displaying dynamic states for Power, Module Status, Fault, and Active Communication.
Operating Power Supply: Sourced via external 24 V DC supply (19.2 V DC to 30 V DC range) with nominal power consumption of approximately 1.5 W to 5 W.
Operating Thermal Range: Industrial operating temperature range from -20°C to +70°C.
Physical Dimensions & Weight: Compact vertical form factor measuring 59 mm (W) x 185 mm (H) x 128 mm (D) with a net weight of approximately 0.6 kg.
Industrial Sectors:
Chemical and Petrochemical Processing, Power Generation and Utilities, Water and Wastewater Treatment, Oil and Gas Exploration, Pulp and Paper Manufacturing, and Heavy Metallurgy.
Application Scenarios:
-
Distributed S800 Remote I/O Interfacing: Installed inside local remote control cabinets to connect field sensor signals and actuator output modules to central ABB System 800xA or third-party controllers via a PROFIBUS DP loop.
-
Smart Field Instrument Telemetry Acquisition: Serves as the primary communication bridge to poll real-time process parameters, alarm messages, and diagnostic data from distributed field devices.
-
Motor Control Center (MCC) & Drive Networking: Interfaces smart variable frequency drives (VFDs), soft starters, and protective relays into the central DCS over high-speed fieldbus lines.
-
Control System Expansion and Retrofit: Applied during factory modernizations to expand remote S800 I/O station capacity without modifying primary controller architecture.
