ABB CI627A 3BSE017457R1 | AF100 PCI-Bus Communication Interface Module

Description

1. Product Overview

The ABB CI627A (3BSE017457R1) is a high-performance Communication Interface Card designed to connect industrial computers and workstations to the Advant Fieldbus 100 (AF100) network. Utilizing a standard PCI-bus interface, the CI627A enables Human Interface Stations (HIS), Connectivity Servers, and engineering tools to communicate directly with Advant Controller 400 series or S800 I/O clusters.

The CI627A is engineered for high-speed, deterministic data exchange, ensuring that critical process data and alarms are transmitted in real-time. It provides a reliable link for system monitoring, configuration, and data logging within the Advant OCS and 800xA environments, making it an essential component for power plants, refineries, and large-scale manufacturing facilities.

Key Applications:

• Operator Stations: Connecting PC-based consoles to the AF100 control bus for real-time visualization.
• Connectivity Servers: Bridging the control network with high-level 800xA system architectures.
• Engineering Workstations: Facilitating the download of configurations and logic to Advant controllers.
• System Diagnostics: Enabling advanced network analysis and troubleshooting of the AF100 fieldbus.

7. FAQ

Q: Can I use the CI627A in a modern PC with PCIe slots?

No, the CI627A is a standard PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) card. It requires a legacy PCI slot. If your computer only has PCIe (Express) slots, you may need a bridge or an updated communication interface model.

Q: Does this card require specific drivers for Windows?

Yes, the CI627A requires specific ABB drivers provided with the Advant OCS or 800xA Connectivity Server software to function correctly within the operating system.

Q: What cable is required to connect the CI627A to the AF100 bus?

The CI627A typically connects to the bus modems (like TC512 or TC516) using a specialized redundant interface cable designed for the AF100 protocol.
