Features:
- Includes 2 modems, power connector, terminator, terminal blocks, and AF100 connector; pre‑loaded software V1.5.
- Works with Advant OCS, 800xA, Compact Product Suite, and S800 I/O (versions 4.0 to 5.1).
- The absence of batteries also makes the CI810B 3BSE020520R1 more reliable in extreme temperatures, as there is no electrochemical component to degrade.
The CI810B 3BSE020520R1 arrives as a complete kit, eliminating the need to source separate components. It includes two AF100 twisted pair modems, a power supply connector (3BSC840098R1), a TB807 Modulebus terminator (3BSE008538R1), two terminal blocks (3BSC840098R1), and an AF100 connector (3BSC840105R1). Basic system software version 1.5 is pre‑loaded, so the module is ready for immediate operation after mounting. This all‑in‑one approach reduces installation time, simplifies spare parts inventory, and ensures that all components are matched for optimal performance.
The CI810B 3BSE020520R1 is listed under multiple ABB product categories, making it one of the most versatile AF100 fieldbus interfaces. It supports Advant OCS with Master SW, 800xA (versions 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, and 5.1), Compact Product Suite, and S800 I/O communication modules. This wide compatibility means a single spare part can serve different generations of ABB control systems – from older Advant OCS installations to newer 800xA distributed control systems. The module is also compatible with various S800 I/O versions, ensuring consistent fieldbus communication across mixed I/O racks.
This compact form factor allows it to fit into dense S800 I/O racks without occupying excessive space. The module contains zero batteries, eliminating battery replacement maintenance and the risk of data loss due to battery failure. It is classified under WEEE Category 5 (small equipment with no external dimension exceeding 50 cm), simplifying end‑of‑life disposal. The absence of batteries also makes the CI810B 3BSE020520R1 more reliable in extreme temperatures, as there is no electrochemical component to degrade. For offshore platforms, chemical plants, or remote monitoring stations where maintenance access is limited, this battery‑free design is a significant advantage.
The CI810B 3BSE020520R1 ABB Fieldbus Communication Interface Module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
