Overview
The ABB CI541V1 communication card is a Profibus-DP interface submodule designed for Advant Controller 450, AC 400, and MOD 300 automation platforms. It enables seamless integration between ABB controllers and Profibus-compatible field devices such as I/O modules, motors, drives, and intelligent sensors.
Operating as a Profibus master, the CI541V1 supports deterministic data exchange with multiple slave devices, ensuring stable and fast communication for real-time industrial processes. Its modular design makes installation and maintenance straightforward, especially within existing ABB control racks.
Engineers adopt this module to expand connectivity, enhance interoperability, and modernize fieldbus architecture in critical automation environments such as power plants and process industries.
