Product Introduction
The Schneider Electric VW3A3628 Communication Module is an open-style communication interface designed for Altivar variable speed drives used with asynchronous motors. It supports CANopen and CANmotion protocols, allowing high-speed, real-time communication between drives, controllers, and automation networks.
Equipped with a 5-way spring terminal block, the module ensures secure and reliable electrical connections for field wiring. This module is compatible with a wide range of Altivar drives and servo systems, including Altivar Process ATV900, ATV600, Lexium 32, Altivar Process Modular, Altivar Machine ATV340 (excluding Sercos), Altivar 32, and Altivar Machine ATV320. It is ideal for industrial, process, and building automation applications where flexible motor control and high reliability are required.
