ABB CI801-EA

The ABB CI801-eA (3BSE022366R2) is a Fieldbus Communication Interface (FCI) module designed for ABB's S800-eA distributed I/O system.

It provides a communication link between S800-eA I/O modules and higher-level automation controllers through the PROFIBUS DP-V1 fieldbus. The module manages I/O data exchange, module configuration, diagnostic information and communication functions.

The CI801-eA is used in industrial process automation applications where reliable communication between distributed I/O stations and control systems is essential.

Model identification: CI801-eA is associated with order number 3BSE022366R2, whereas the standard CI801 carries order number 3BSE022366R1. These should not be treated as identical ordering codes.

Core Functions

  • PROFIBUS DP-V1 Communication: Connects S800-eA distributed I/O stations to PROFIBUS-compatible controllers.

  • I/O Data Exchange: Transfers process signals and control information between field-level modules and the controller.

  • ModuleBus Supervision: Monitors connected I/O modules and collects diagnostic information.

  • HART Pass-Through: Supports HART communication through compatible analog I/O modules.

  • Hot Configuration In Run: Allows supported I/O configuration changes while the system remains operational.

  • Output State Processing: Provides Output State Preset (OSP) handling for output management during communication interruptions.

  • Power Distribution: Provides isolated power supply functions for connected I/O modules.
