Why Choose the ABB CI582-CN-XC CANopen Communication Interface Module?

The ABB CI582-CN-XC is a robust CANopen communication interface module designed for decentralised I/O applications within ABB AC500-XC automation systems. It combines CANopen slave communication with 8 digital inputs, 8 digital outputs and 8 configurable digital inputs/outputs, providing flexible 24 V DC field-device connectivity.

The CI582-CN-XC operates as a CANopen slave and provides 24 V DC digital channels, with the fixed digital outputs and configurable channels supporting up to 0.5 A. Module-wise galvanic isolation, fast-counter functionality and comprehensive diagnostic indication support demanding industrial automation applications.

As an XC version, the CI582-CN-XC is intended for use in extreme ambient conditions and can be expanded with up to 10 S500-XC I/O modules. CANopen communication is connected through the compatible TU518-XC terminal unit, while two rotary switches provide CANopen node identification.

CANopen Distributed I/O for Extreme-Condition Automation

The ABB CI582-CN-XC provides a direct interface between CANopen networks and distributed S500-XC I/O. Its eight digital inputs and eight transistor outputs allow 24 V DC sensors and actuators to be connected directly, while the eight configurable channels can be assigned as inputs or outputs according to the application.

The module supports the CANopen DS401 profile and uses two front-mounted rotary switches for node identification. Status LEDs provide separate indications for configurable channels, digital inputs, digital outputs, process supply, channel errors and CANopen system status, helping simplify commissioning and troubleshooting.

For high-speed applications, the CI582-CN-XC provides integrated fast-counter functionality using configurable digital input channels. The module also supports expansion with up to 10 S500-XC extension modules, allowing distributed I/O stations to be scaled for larger automation systems.
