Product Introduction
The ABB NCAN-02C (Part Number: 64286731) is a CANopen communication adapter module designed for seamless integration between ABB AC drives and devices operating on the CANopen fieldbus protocol. CANopen, a high-speed communication system based on CAN (Controller Area Network), is widely used in industrial automation and embedded control systems.
The NCAN-02C enables ABB drives to communicate effectively in a decentralized control architecture, enhancing system interoperability and reducing wiring complexity. It ensures fast and reliable data exchange, supporting applications where real-time coordination between multiple devices is critical.
Compact, rugged, and DIN-rail mountable, the NCAN-02C is a plug-in module that can be easily installed in compatible ABB drive units, such as those from the ACS550, ACS800, and ACS355 series. With proven reliability and long-term support, it is a trusted interface solution for OEMs, system integrators, and industrial operators.
