Product Overview

The ABB CI570 (Product ID: 3BSE001440R1) functions as the primary MasterFieldbus Controller for the Advant Master Process Control System. This high-performance communication module establishes a robust link between central controllers and distributed I/O devices across the plant floor. By managing data synchronization and protocol execution, the CI570 ensures deterministic control over fieldbus networks. We provide this module as 100% Brand New and Original in Factory Packing, ensuring your legacy or modernized Advant system maintains peak operational integrity with a full 12-month factory warranty.

Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

The CI570 communication board solves complex networking challenges in large-scale industrial environments by optimizing bandwidth and electrical protection.

• High-Speed Deterministic Control: The module delivers communication speeds up to 1 Mbps. This high-bandwidth capability allows for rapid data refresh rates across 256 I/O points, which is critical for real-time turbine control and generator synchronization in power plants.

• Superior Galvanic Isolation: Integrated isolation barriers protect the internal controller logic from field-side electrical surges and ground loops. This hardware-level protection prevents interference from corrupting data packets in high-EMI environments.

• Seamless Fieldbus Integration: The CI570 acts as a central communication hub, linking disparate distributed I/O modules into a single, cohesive network. This simplifies the system architecture and reduces the wiring overhead required for large-scale automation.

• Ruggedized Industrial Design: Engineered to operate in temperatures as low as –20°C and as high as +60°C, the CI570 sustains performance in unconditioned equipment rooms. Its compact modular frame slides directly into standard ABB racks, facilitating quick hardware refreshes.

FAQs

• Does the CI570 require specific software configuration for I/O mapping?

  Yes. You must configure the CI570 within the Advant Master engineering toolset to define the 256 I/O points and set the fieldbus addresses. Once configured, the module manages all low-level data exchange autonomously.

• Is the CI570 compatible with 12V and 24V DC systems?

  The module supports a flexible power input range from 12V to 24V DC. This wide voltage tolerance allows it to function reliably even in systems experiencing minor voltage fluctuations or those utilizing different industrial battery backups.

• What is the difference between the CI570 and other Advant communication boards?

  The CI570 specifically targets the MasterFieldbus protocol. While other boards may handle Ethernet or AF100, the CI570 is the dedicated solution for linking controllers to the fieldbus tier of the Advant Master architecture.

• Is this a genuine, factory-new unit?

  We guarantee the CI570 is 100% Brand New and Original. Every unit arrives in its original ABB factory packing with a serial number-tracked 12-month warranty, protecting your investment in mission-critical hardware.
