The CI855K01 (3BSE018106R1) is a high-performance communication interface module designed by ABB, tailored for industrial automation systems such as the Advant 800xA and MasterBus 300 (MB 300) platforms. This module enables seamless communication between controllers, operator stations, and legacy systems, supporting peer-to-peer connectivity between ABB’s AC800M controllers and older MB 300-based systems (e.g., Advant Controller 410/450). With dual Ethernet ports (RJ-45) and built-in redundancy, the CI855K01 ensures reliable data transfer in critical applications, including process control, machine automation, and plant-wide monitoring. Its compact design (59 mm width) and hot-swap capability minimize downtime, making it ideal for industries requiring continuous operation.
Network Redundancy: Dual Ethernet ports ensure uninterrupted communication, reducing downtime risks by 90% in redundant setups.
Hot-Swap Capability: Modules can be replaced without system shutdown, cutting maintenance time by 50%.
Legacy System Integration: Supports seamless connectivity between new AC800M controllers and older MB 300 systems, protecting legacy investments.
High Reliability: Compliant with G3 corrosion standards (ISA 71.04) and CE/ROHS certifications, ensuring durability in harsh environments.
Efficient Data Transfer: 200 datasets/s throughput for real-time monitoring and control.
4. Application Areas and Use Cases
Industries: Oil & gas, chemical, metallurgy, water treatment, and manufacturing. Scenarios: Plant-wide automation, process control, and integration of legacy systems.
Case Study: A petrochemical plant upgraded its aging MB 300 network using the CI855K01 to connect new AC800M controllers with existing Masterpiece 200 systems. The module’s peer-to-peer support and redundancy reduced communication failures by 75%, improving production efficiency by 12%.
Redundancy Flexibility: Dual Ethernet ports standard (vs. optional on 竞品).
Space Efficiency: 30% smaller form factor than comparable modules with equivalent functionality.

6. Selection Recommendations
Compatibility: Ensure compatibility with your system (e.g., ABB Advant 800xA/AC800M).
Redundancy Needs: Opt for the CI855K01 if network redundancy is critical (dual ports + CEX-Bus support).
Environment: Verify temperature (+5°C to +55°C) and corrosion resistance (G3) for your application.
Scalability: Supports up to 12 units on a CEX-Bus, suitable for medium-sized systems.
7. Precautions
Installation: Use the TP853 baseplate for proper CEX-Bus connection. Follow ESD protocols (anti-static wrist straps).
Power Supply: Ensure a stable 24V DC source; avoid voltage spikes.
Firmware: Update regularly via ABB’s engineering tools (e.g., 800xA System Builder).
Maintenance: Clean dust annually; inspect wiring for loose connections.
