Schneider Electric 170INT11000 Interbus Communication Adapter – Modicon Momentum I/O Series
Imagine a high-speed automotive assembly line or a continuous chemical processing plant where dozens of distributed I/O nodes must exchange real-time data with the central PLC — and the communication adapter fails. Production halts, diagnostics become guesswork, and every minute of downtime translates directly into financial loss. The Schneider Electric 170INT11000 Interbus Communication Adapter is the critical link that prevents this scenario, enabling seamless, deterministic fieldbus communication between Modicon Momentum I/O modules and the Interbus network backbone.
Within the Modicon Momentum platform — Schneider Electric’s modular, distributed I/O architecture trusted by engineers across more than 100 countries — the 170INT11000 occupies a specialized niche as the dedicated Interbus (IBS) communication adapter. Interbus, standardized under IEC 61158, remains one of the most widely deployed ring-topology fieldbuses in European and global manufacturing environments, particularly in automotive, packaging, and material handling sectors. The 170INT11000 bridges Momentum’s flexible I/O capabilities directly onto this proven network, making it an indispensable component for system integrators maintaining or expanding legacy Interbus installations.

Key Features & Benefits
- Plug-and-Play Modicon Momentum Integration: Snaps directly onto any Momentum I/O base, eliminating complex wiring and reducing commissioning time.
- Deterministic Interbus Communication: Supports the cyclic, time-deterministic data exchange that Interbus is renowned for, critical for motion control and synchronized manufacturing processes.
- Ring Topology Fault Isolation: Interbus ring architecture allows the network to identify and isolate faults at the segment level, minimizing the impact of a single node failure on overall system availability.
- Compact Modular Design: The Momentum platform’s modular approach means the 170INT11000 can be swapped independently without replacing the entire I/O assembly, reducing spare parts inventory costs.
- Wide Industrial Compatibility: Works with a broad range of Interbus masters and controllers from multiple vendors, protecting your existing network investment.
- Proven Reliability: Part of Schneider Electric’s globally supported Modicon product family, with long-term availability and technical support infrastructure.
Industry & Equipment Applications
- Automotive Manufacturing: Body-in-white assembly, paint shop conveyors, and powertrain test benches relying on Interbus for high-speed I/O synchronization.
- Packaging & Material Handling: High-speed filling lines, palletizers, and sortation systems where deterministic cycle times are non-negotiable.
- Chemical & Process Industries: Distributed I/O nodes in hazardous or remote areas connected via Interbus ring to a central control room.
- Machine Tool & Robotics: CNC machining centers and robotic cells requiring tight I/O response times over fieldbus.
- Water & Wastewater Treatment: Remote pump stations and valve actuator networks managed through Interbus-connected Momentum I/O.
- Building Automation & Infrastructure: Large-scale HVAC and access control systems using legacy Interbus installations.
