Description
The MOOG D137-001-006 is a CAN extension module designed for industrial automation applications within the Moog M3000® Automation System. While the M3000 system is not obsolete, this specific module might be an older variant. Here’s a breakdown of its key features and functionalities based on available information:
Function:
- Extends the capabilities of the Moog M3000® Automation System by providing access to a CAN (Controller Area Network) bus.
- The CAN bus allows for communication with other CAN-enabled devices within the automation system, enabling data exchange and coordinated control.
Possible Applications (within Moog M3000 System):
- Connecting multiple Moog servo controllers or other CAN-compatible devices like I/O modules or sensors.
- Distributing control signals and sensor data across a wider network within a machine or production line.
- Enabling communication with external CAN-based systems or HMIs (Human-Machine Interfaces).
Key Features (based on available information):
- Connects to the Moog M3000 system via the E-Bus (Electronic Bus).
- Provides a D-sub front panel connector for connecting to the CAN bus network.
- Communication Protocol: CAN (Controller Area Network)
Considerations:
- While the Moog M3000 system remains in use, the D137-001-006 might be an older module variant. Moog might offer newer CAN extension modules with potentially improved features or functionalities.
- A specific datasheet for the D137-001-006 might be difficult to find. However, you can explore the Moog M3000 user manuals for general information on CAN communication and compatible modules:
Recommendation:
