Description
Product Overview
The ABB CI853 (3BSE018124R1) is a high-performance dual-channel RS-232 communication interface specifically engineered for the AC 800M controller family. This module enables reliable serial integration between your control system and external peripherals such as PLCs, weight scales, and operator panels. By supporting Modbus RTU and COMLI protocols, the CI853 provides a versatile gateway for multi-vendor data synchronization in demanding industrial environments.

Engineering Advantages
Corrosion & Industrial Resilience
The module features G3 compliant conformal coating, ensuring long-term reliability in corrosive atmospheres (ISA 71.04). This makes it ideal for chemical plants and offshore applications.
Hot Swap Capability
The CI853 hardware supports Hot Swap technology. Maintenance teams can replace the interface module while the controller remains energized, significantly reducing system downtime.
High Integrity Compatibility
This interface operates seamlessly with High Integrity (HI) controllers, providing the necessary serial links for safety-related monitoring and auxiliary control tasks.
Installation & Maintenance Guide
- Physical Mounting: Secure the module onto the TP858 baseplate and confirm the CEX-Bus pins are correctly aligned.
- Cable Integrity: Use high-quality shielded RJ-45 cables. Ensure RS-232 cable runs do not exceed 15 meters to prevent data corruption.
- Configuration: Define the port parameters (Baud Rate, Parity) within the ABB Control Builder M environment to match your field device.
Technical FAQs
Q1: Does the CI853 support redundant communication?
A1: No, the CI853 does not support line or module redundancy. For critical paths, we recommend utilizing dual modules on the CEX bus.
Q2: Can I use this for Modbus TCP/IP?
A2: No, the CI853 is strictly for serial RS-232 (Modbus RTU). For Modbus TCP/IP, you would typically require a CI867 module.
Q3: What is the maximum number of CI853 units per controller?
A3: You can connect up to 12 modules to the CEX-Bus of a single AC 800M controller, depending on the power supply capacity.
