Genuine ABB C718 AE101 HIEE300936R0101 - Industrial Automation Part

ABB C718 AE101 HIEE300936R0101 Main Circuit Interface Board | Advant Series

Description

ABB C718 AE101 HIEE300936R0101 Main Circuit Interface Board – Advant Controller Series

When a main circuit interface board fails inside an ABB Advant DCS cabinet, the consequences are immediate and severe: the controller loses its ability to route I/O signals between the CPU and field devices, process variables go blind, and the entire control loop collapses. In continuous-process industries — power generation, pulp & paper, oil & gas — an unplanned shutdown triggered by a single failed board can cost tens of thousands of dollars per hour. The ABB C718 AE101 (HIEE300936R0101) is the exact replacement component that restores full system integrity without requiring a controller architecture change.

Within the ABB Advant Controller family, the C718 AE101 occupies a critical position as the main circuit interface module responsible for internal bus communication and signal conditioning between the controller backplane and peripheral I/O modules. Carrying the hardware reference HIEE300936R0101, this board represents ABB’s engineering standard for reliable, noise-immune signal routing in harsh industrial environments. It remains one of the most sought-after spare parts for legacy Advant installations worldwide, where plant operators prioritize system continuity over full migration.

Key Features & Benefits

Drop-in Replacement: Designed to slot directly into existing Advant controller racks — no firmware re-flashing or hardware modification required in most installations.
Noise-Immune Signal Routing: ABB’s internal bus architecture on this board provides robust EMI rejection, critical in high-voltage switchgear environments.
Long Service Life: Industrial-grade PCB construction with conformal coating tolerance, suited for continuous 24/7 operation.
Genuine ABB Engineering: Manufactured to ABB’s Advant platform specifications, ensuring full compatibility with ABB diagnostic and configuration tools.
Reduces Downtime Risk: Stocking this board as a critical spare eliminates multi-week lead times from OEM channels during emergency shutdowns.

Industry & Equipment Applications

Power Generation: Turbine control systems, boiler management, and generator excitation control using ABB Advant DCS platforms.
Pulp & Paper: Continuous digester control, bleaching line automation, and paper machine drive coordination.
Oil & Gas: Upstream wellhead controllers, midstream compressor stations, and refinery process control cabinets.
Chemical & Petrochemical: Reactor temperature/pressure loop control integrated with Advant I/O subsystems.
Water & Wastewater: SCADA-linked pump station controllers and treatment plant automation.
Marine & Offshore: Platform automation and vessel power management systems built on ABB Advant architecture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the HIEE300936R0101 the same as C718 AE101?
A: Yes. HIEE300936R0101 is ABB’s hardware reference number for the C718 AE101 main circuit interface board. Both designations refer to the same physical module.

Q: Will this board work with my existing Advant controller without reconfiguration?
A: In most cases, yes — it is a direct hardware replacement. However, we recommend your automation engineer verify the firmware revision compatibility with your specific controller version before installation.

Q: Do you provide a test report or inspection certificate?
A: Yes. A functional test report is available upon request for refurbished units. Please specify this requirement when submitting your inquiry.

Q: What is the lead time for this part?
A: Lead time depends on current stock status. In-stock units ship within 3–5 business days. Out-of-stock units typically have a 2–4 week sourcing lead time. Contact us for real-time availability.

Q: Can you supply multiple units for a plant-wide spare parts program?
A: Yes. We support bulk orders and long-term supply agreements. Contact our sales team for volume pricing.
