ABB CI930F 3BDH001010R0005

Product introduction

The CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 is a high-performance PROFINET IO controller module from ABB, designed to serve as a critical communication hub in industrial automation networks. As a key component in ABB’s industrial communication portfolio, CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 enables real-time data exchange between central control systems (such as the 500CPU05 1MRB150081R1/E PLC) and distributed field devices, including safety controllers like the SNAT634PAC, servo drives, and I/O modules such as the DSDP140B.

This module specializes in PROFINET IO communication, supporting both real-time (RT) and isochronous real-time (IRT) modes to meet the demands of time-critical applications. Unlike basic communication modules, CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 offers advanced features such as device redundancy, PROFIenergy support for energy management, and seamless integration with safety protocols like PROFIsafe. Whether deployed in automotive manufacturing, material handling, or process control systems, CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 ensures reliable, high-speed communication, enhancing system synchronization and operational efficiency.

Core advantages and technical highlights

PROFINET IRT for deterministic control: CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 supports PROFINET IRT (Isochronous Real Time) with cycle times as low as 125 µs, ensuring jitter-free communication for synchronized motion control systems. In a robotic assembly line, this capability allows the module to coordinate up to 32 axes of DSMC112 57360001-HC servo controllers with sub-microsecond precision, maintaining tight tolerances in component placement (±0.01 mm). The IRT mode prioritizes critical control data, preventing network congestion from affecting time-sensitive tasks.

High device capacity and scalability: With support for up to 128 PROFINET devices (32 in IRT mode), CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 scales seamlessly from small machines to large plant-wide networks. In a logistics warehouse, it can connect dozens of conveyor drives, barcode scanners, and DSDP140B digital input modules monitoring package sensors, all while maintaining communication cycle times under 1 ms. This scalability eliminates the need for multiple communication controllers, reducing system complexity and cost.

Seamless safety integration: CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 natively supports PROFIsafe over PROFINET, enabling secure communication with safety controllers like the SNAT634PAC without dedicated safety networks. This integration allows safety-related data (e.g., emergency stop signals) to coexist with standard control data on the same network, simplifying wiring and diagnostics. In a chemical plant, it can transmit both safety shutdown commands (from SNAT634PAC) and process setpoints (from the PLC) over a single PROFINET infrastructure, ensuring coordinated operation during normal and fault conditions.

Energy efficiency features: Equipped with PROFIenergy support, CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 can remotely manage the power state of connected devices (e.g., putting idle motors into standby mode). In an automotive paint shop, this capability reduces energy consumption by up to 15% during production breaks, as the module coordinates with drives and robots to minimize standby power usage—all while maintaining quick recovery to operational mode when production resumes.

Robustness in harsh environments: The module operates reliably in temperatures from -25°C to 60°C and features 2.5 kV AC isolation between signals and backplane, protecting against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ground loops. Its rugged design makes it suitable for deployment in steel mills, outdoor substations, and food processing facilities with washdown environments (when used in IP65 enclosures), ensuring uninterrupted communication despite environmental stressors.

Typical application scenarios

In a high-speed packaging line, CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 serves as the communication backbone, connecting the 500CPU05 PLC to 40+ field devices: including DSMC112 servo controllers for film unwinding, UAD154A analog modules for pressure monitoring, and DSDP140B units tracking package presence. Operating in IRT mode with a 500 µs cycle time, it ensures precise synchronization between filling nozzles and conveyor belts, maintaining fill accuracy within ±1 mL. The module’s PROFIenergy functionality powers down idle labeling machines during changeovers, reducing energy waste.

In a water treatment plant, CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 integrates distributed control systems with remote I/O and safety devices. It communicates with SNAT634PAC safety controllers monitoring pump overloads, GRBTU 3BSE013175R1 bus units in filtration stations, and VFDs controlling flow rates. Using PROFINET RT, it transmits process data to the central SCADA system while receiving control commands, ensuring consistent water quality. Its wide temperature tolerance allows reliable operation in unheated outdoor pump houses, even in freezing conditions.

Installation, commissioning and maintenance instructions

Installation preparation: Mount CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 into a compatible backplane (e.g., AC800M) using the front-panel screw (torque to 0.6 Nm). Ensure at least 50mm clearance for ventilation. Connect to a 24 V DC power supply (1A minimum) via the backplane or dedicated terminals, with a 3A fuse in the supply line. For PROFINET, use shielded Cat 6 cable (max 100m) with M12 or RJ45 connectors; for RS485, use shielded twisted-pair cable (100Ω impedance). Ground all shields at both ends. Required tools include a torque screwdriver, wire strippers, and a laptop with ABB’s Control Builder M software. Power off the system during installation.

Configuration steps: Use Control Builder M to configure CI930F 3BDH001010R0005’s network parameters (IP address, device name) and PROFINET IO settings (cycle time, IRT groups). Map I/O data from connected devices (e.g., SNAT634PAC, DSDP140B) to the PLC’s address space. Enable PROFIsafe if integrating safety devices, configuring safety addresses and timeout values. Perform a network test using ABB’s PROFINET Diagnostics Tool to verify communication with all devices and measure cycle time jitter (should be <10 µs). Save configurations to non-volatile memory.

Maintenance suggestions: Inspect CI930F 3BDH001010R0005 quarterly for loose connections, dust, and LED status (power: green, communication: flashing green, fault: red). Clean ventilation slots with compressed air. Monitor network performance monthly using the built-in web interface, checking for packet loss or excessive latency (>50 µs). Update firmware annually via Ethernet (with password protection) to ensure compatibility with new PROFINET features. If communication faults occur, verify cable integrity and switch status before resetting the module; replace with ABB-certified units if hardware issues persist.
