ABB TU551-CS31 CS31 Bus Terminal Unit
A 24 V DC terminal unit that carries CS31 bus, process supply and field connections for compatible S500 communication interface modules.
Overview
TU551-CS31 is the screw-terminal version of ABB order code 1SAP210600R0001. It is designed as the field-wiring base for S500 CS31 communication interface modules that use 24 V DC inputs, outputs or interface signals.
The plug-in electronics can be released from the terminal unit while the bus and field conductors remain connected. This separates service of the active module from the fixed cabinet wiring.

Features
- Dual B1 and B2 connection points simplify continuation of the CS31 bus through the station.
- Dedicated R1 and R2 positions support the specified end-of-line termination arrangement.
- UP and ZP provide the defined process-voltage connection for the inserted communication interface module.
- The female I/O-bus connector permits compatible terminal units to be connected downstream.
- Screw-clamp conductors support maintenance conventions where torque-controlled terminations are preferred.
Applications
- Distributed ABB CS31 stations using compatible S500 interface modules.
- Control-panel upgrades where screw-terminal field wiring must be retained.
- Maintenance replacement of a terminal base with documented B1/B2 bus polarity and functional-earth routing.
- 24 V DC remote-I/O assemblies requiring fixed wiring and removable module electronics.
Lifecycle
- ABB lists 1SAP210600R0001 as an Active article.
- TU551-CS31 and TU552-CS31 are electrically related but use different field-terminal technologies.
- The selected host module must belong to the supported 24 V DC CS31 interface class.
- Before replacement, label bus polarity, termination links, process supply and every field conductor.
FAQ
What is the defining terminal style of TU551-CS31?
It uses screw terminals.
Is TU551-CS31 an I/O electronics module?
No. It is the terminal base for a compatible CS31 communication interface module.
Can the inserted module be removed without disconnecting field wiring?
Yes. The electrical connections are made through the fixed terminal unit.
What do B1 and B2 identify?
They are the positive and negative CS31 bus conductors and must retain their documented polarity.
When are R1 and R2 used?
They form part of the bus end-of-line resistor connection when termination is required at that station.
What should be compared before ordering TU552-CS31 instead?
Confirm whether the installed cabinet requires screw terminals or spring terminals.
