Product Description

The 4IF370.7 provides reliable CAN network connectivity for industrial control hardware lacking native interfaces. In a compact housing designed for screw-in mounting, the interface module brings galvanically isolated CAN communication to PLCs, motor controllers, robotics, and custom logic devices using a single DB9 port.

Engineered explicitly for harsh industrial settings, the interface module withstands vibration, shock, and extreme temperatures ranging from -20 degrees C during cold facility starts to 60 degrees C in enclosures baked by ambient heat and internal components. All electronics are sealed to IP20 specifications, defending circuit boards from moisture, dust, and debris. Network integration is streamlined with screw terminals for CAN bus lines and power. Integrated 120 line termination resistors are enabled via DIP switch, eliminating external components. A DIP switch also sets the module node ID on the CAN bus while LEDs convey bus and module status. Galvanic isolation protects control electronics from bus voltage fluctuations and noise. The 4IF370.7 serves as a robust, set-and-forget CAN interface bridge for diverse automation hardware on cost-conscious projects.

Its isolated port, wide temp range, and Noise Immunity Level (NIL) rating deliver reliable CAN communication in electrically harsh, untreated industrial environments prone to power fluctuations, transients, and EMI. Configuration takes just moments with DIP switches before deploying. With broadcast, polling, and peer-to-peer messaging support, the CAN interface empowers simple distributed architectures without complex Ethernet infrastructure. It brings modern communication capability to otherwise stranded PLCs, drives, instruments, and other legacy gear. The 4IF370.7 enables smart machine networking, data acquisition, and KPI visualization well into the IIoT era at reasonable expense.
