The ABB CI542-DP (1SAP224200R0001) serves as a high-density PROFIBUS DP slave interface module within the S500 I/O platform. This versatile module integrates local I/O processing with fieldbus communication, providing 8 dedicated digital inputs, 8 dedicated digital outputs, and 8 fully configurable I/O channels. Designed for distributed automation, the CI542-DP bridges the gap between PROFIBUS master controllers and field-level sensors/actuators. We supply this unit as 100% Brand New and Original, ensuring seamless integration into your AC500 PLC architecture.

The CI542-DP optimizes cabinet space and system flexibility through its hybrid I/O architecture and scalable design.
Hybrid I/O Versatility: The inclusion of 8 configurable DI/DO channels allows engineers to adapt the module to specific site requirements without changing hardware. This flexibility reduces spare part inventory costs and simplifies field wiring adjustments.
Massive Scalability: While providing 24 local I/O points, the CI542-DP also acts as a bus head that supports up to 10 expansion I/O modules. This allows a single PROFIBUS node to manage over 100 signal points, significantly reducing network addressing overhead.
Compact DIN-Rail Footprint: Measuring only 67.5 mm in width, the module maximizes rail space. This compact form factor proves essential in decentralized terminal boxes where mounting volume remains at a premium.
Efficient Power Distribution: The module handles a 0.5A current load per output channel, totaling enough capacity to drive industrial solenoids and indicators directly without requiring interposing relays for standard 24V DC loads.
How many total I/O points does the CI542-DP handle locally?
The module provides 24 local points: 8 fixed inputs, 8 fixed outputs, and 8 channels that you can program as either inputs or outputs depending on your application needs.
Can the CI542-DP operate as a PROFIBUS Master?
No. The CI542-DP functions strictly as a PROFIBUS DP Slave. It requires a PROFIBUS Master (such as an AC500 CPU with a CM572-DP master module) to coordinate communication.
What is the maximum expansion capacity for this interface?
You can extend the local bus of the CI542-DP by attaching up to 10 additional S500 I/O modules. This allows you to scale the I/O count significantly while maintaining a single PROFIBUS station address.
Is this a Brand New unit in original packaging?
Yes. We guarantee that every 1SAP224200R0001 is 100% Brand New and Original. The unit ships in its original ABB carton (Level 1 packaging: 84 x 72 x 71 mm) to ensure it reaches your facility in factory condition.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
Finding brand new, original modules is critical for our safety. This team delivers factory-fresh components with full certification. Their commitment to only selling new products makes them our most trusted partner.
We have sourced Honeywell and Schneider parts here for two years. Every shipment arrives well-packaged with original factory seals intact. Clear communication and the best lead times in the industry.
