Description

CI858 ABB DriveBus Communication Interface

The CI858 (3BSE018135R1) is a DriveBus communication interface from ABB. It connects ABB Drives and ABB Special I/O units to the AC 800M controller via the CEX-Bus. No external power source is required. The DriveBus protocol is specifically designed for sectional drive applications in ABB rolling mill drive systems and paper machine control systems.

Installation & Application

Mount the CI858 on the CEX-Bus inside the AC 800M controller cabinet. The processor unit powers the CI858 directly through the bus connection. Connect up to 24 ABB drives to a single CI858. For multiple drives, use the NDBU branching unit to build a logical bus with physical star topology. Chain multiple branching units as needed. A maximum of two CI858 units can connect to one AC 800M controller.

FAQs

Q1: Does CI858 require external power?
A1: No. The CI858 draws power from the processor unit via the CEX-Bus. Typical consumption is 200 mA at 24V.

Q2: How many drives can one CI858 support?
A2: A single CI858 supports up to 24 ABB drives. An NDBU branching unit is required when connecting more than one drive.

Q3: What industries use the CI858?
A3: Sectional drive applications including ABB rolling mill drive systems and ABB paper machine control systems.

Q4: Is the CI858 suitable for marine environments?
A4: Yes. It holds marine certificates from ABS, BV, DNV-GL, and LR.
