CI845 | ABB Ethernet Fieldbus Communication Interface (FCI) Module

Select I/O is an Ethernet networked, single channel granular I/O system for the ABB Ability™ System 800xA automation platform. Select I/O helps decouple project tasks, minimizes the impact of late changes, and supports standardization of I/O cabinetry ensuring automation projects are delivered on time and under budget. A Signal Conditioning Module (SCM) performs the necessary signal conditioning and powering of the connected field device for one I/O channel.The CI845 Ethernet Fieldbus Communication Interface Module (FCI) is responsible for communications of S800 I/O or Select I/O to the AC 800M controllers. For redundant configurations, two CI845s are required to be installed in the TU860 or TU865 Ethernet Field Communications Interface MTUs. Features and Benefits:Can be used as single or redundant - Supports both Select I/O and S800 on Ethernet - Supports 12 single or 12 redundant S800 I/O modulesSupports up to 192 Select I/O channelsPossible to use with single or redundant 24V power suppliesBuilt-in power votingBuilt-in supervision of power supply A and power supply BBuilt-in cabinet temperature measurementBuilt-in diagnosticsSoft marshallingOptimized engineering HART v7, HART pass-throughHART variables to the application (Select I/O)Sequense of EventsSupports hot swapCan be used in hazardous areaMechanical locking slider which turns off power before removalMechanical keyingLED indicators
