CI855K01 3BSE018106R1 | ABB | System 800xA MasterBus 300 Interface Kit

Product Overview

The ABB CI855K01 (3BSE018106R1) serves as a high-performance communication bridge between modern AC 800M controllers and legacy MasterBus 300 (MB300) networks. This interface allows for seamless data exchange between System 800xA and older Advant OCS or MasterPiece 200/1 systems. We supply this kit as 100% brand new original hardware, providing a robust path for system expansions or the phased modernization of existing industrial plants.

Technical Specifications

The CI855K01 kit integrates the processing module and the mounting interface into a single professional package.

Engineering Advantages

• Seamless Legacy Integration: The CI855 enables the AC 800M controller to communicate with legacy Advant OCS systems via MB300. This protects your existing capital investments by allowing new hardware to sit on the same high-level network as older controllers.

• Complete Installation Kit: This package includes both the CI855 module and the TP853 baseplate. You receive all the necessary hardware to mount the unit to the CEX-bus immediately, eliminating the delay of sourcing separate mounting components.

• Hot-Swap Maintenance: The design allows for the replacement of the CI855 module without removing the TP853 baseplate or disconnecting the field cables. This minimizes process downtime during maintenance cycles or hardware upgrades.

• High-Density Performance: Occupying only 59 mm of cabinet rail space, the CI855K01 delivers high-throughput communication for large-scale peer-to-peer data sets. It solves the challenge of limited space in control cabinets when integrating complex network bridges.

FAQs

• What exactly does the CI855K01 kit include?

  Each kit contains one CI855 MB300 Interface Module and one TP853 Baseplate. Both components arrive as 100% brand new in original ABB factory packaging.

• Can this module connect directly to an Advant Controller 450?

  Yes. The CI855 allows an AC 800M controller to communicate with an AC 450 (or other MB300 nodes) using Dataset communication, facilitating easy integration between different generations of ABB systems.

• Is there any specific software requirement for this module?

  The AC 800M controller requires the appropriate communication library within the 800xA Engineering Studio to recognize and configure the CI855 module on the CEX-bus.

• Does this unit carry a warranty?

  As a brand new original part, the CI855K01 carries the standard industrial warranty. We guarantee the product has never been used, refurbished, or repaired.
