The ABB CI560 (3BUC98002R0001) is a high‑level industrial communication and interface module designed for reliable data acquisition, signal conditioning, and communication across automation systems. It serves as an important integration point between field sensors, actuators, and control systems such as PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition), and distributed control systems (DCS).
The CI560 is built to handle a mix of analog and digital inputs/outputs with precision, supporting stable data exchange in real‑time control applications. Its rugged industrial design enables it to perform reliably under conditions of temperature variation, electrical noise, and vibration, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial environments.
The module’s flexible interface capabilities and robust signal processing make it a core communication component within complex automation networks. CI560 can serve as a communication hub in mid‑to‑large scale automated facilities, offering dependable performance for mission‑critical operations.
Brand: ABB
Product Series: CI Communication Interface Modules
The CI series encompasses a family of communication and interface modules engineered for industrial automation applications. These modules facilitate the transfer of data between field devices and higher‑level control systems, enabling real‑time monitoring, control, and automation. The series includes modules with different combinations of analog and digital I/O, communication capabilities, and performance levels to match diverse industrial needs.
The CI560 integrates multiple analog and digital signal paths into a single industrial interface module. It acquires input signals from sensors, conditions the signals for accuracy and stability, and communicates the processed data to controllers or supervisory systems. The module also distributes output signals to actuators or field devices as part of closed‑loop control and automation logic.
CI560’s design emphasizes ease of installation and maintenance. It supports DIN rail or modular rack mounting, and features LED indicators for power status, I/O activity, and fault conditions. Built‑in isolation and noise suppression mechanisms ensure that analog signals are accurately captured even in electrically noisy environments.
Process Automation and Control
In continuous or batch process industries (such as chemical, food processing, and pharmaceuticals), CI560 collects real‑time data from field sensors—such as temperature, flow, pressure, and level transmitters—and communicates it to control systems.
Machine and Factory Automation
The module interfaces with machine sensors, safety interlocks, and control actuators on manufacturing equipment. It supports automated logic, sequencing, and machine performance monitoring.
Energy Management and Power Systems
CI560 gathers data from energy meters, current transformers, and protective relays in power generation and distribution environments to support energy monitoring, load balancing, and fault detection.
Infrastructure and Building Automation
The module connects environmental sensors, HVAC systems, security interfaces, and facility control systems to centralized supervision platforms.
Testing and Measurement Systems
In labs and test bench setups, CI560 acquires large numbers of analog and digital data streams for analysis, calibration, and verification processes.
Versatile Signal Integration
Supports multiple analog and digital inputs and outputs, enabling a broad mix of field devices to connect to one module without needing separate converters.
Reliable Communication
High‑speed and stable data transfer supports real‑time control and monitoring with minimal latency.
Industrial Durability
Designed to withstand harsh industrial conditions, including temperature swings, electrical noise, and mechanical vibration.
Modular and Scalable
Mountable on DIN rails or in modular racks to facilitate flexible system design and easy scalability in distributed systems.
Built‑In Diagnostics
LED indicators for power, I/O activity, and fault status provide visual feedback that simplifies maintenance and troubleshooting.
