CAN/PROFIBUS Coupler (BWU1246)

Product description:

Connection of a CAN network and a PROFIBUS network via integrated interfaces

Easy data exchange between CAN and PROFIBUS via the internal coupling.

The CAN/PROFIBUS Coupler is the easiest solution to exchange data between CAN and PROFIBUS.

In big applications is often a need to exchange data between a control of a CAN network and another PLC, e. g. to report the process status. This problem was solved in the past with the help of normal I/O modules, with the inputs of the control of the CAN network connected to the outputs of the other PLC and vice versa. With the use of the CAN/PROFIBUS Coupler to solve this problem the installation costs as well as the components costs can be reduced.

The CAN/PROFIBUS Coupler consists of a CAN slave with n bytes (8, 16 or 24 bytes) input data and n bytes output data and a PROFIBUS slave with n bytes input data and 8 bytes output data in one housing. The outputs of one slave are connected to respective inputs of the other slave and vice versa (output data byte 1 of the CAN slave with input data byte 1 of the PROFIBUS slave and vice versa, etc.).

There is a galvanic isolation between CAN and PROFIBUS.

A seven digit display can be used for commissioning and diagnosis.

As long as one of both slaves does not exchange data the other slave reads on each input a 0 as default.
