E82ZAFCC210 Lenze 8200-Series CAN I/O Function Module

Product Overview

The E82ZAFCC210 (E82ZAFCC210) is a high-performance CAN I/O function module designed as an essential expansion accessory for the Lenze 8200-series and 8200 motec frequency inverters. This pluggable unit enables advanced decentralized control by providing a direct CANopen communication interface along with additional specialized I/O capabilities ("PT" version). Weighing a mere 0.10 kg, this module is engineered to fit into the standard function slot of the inverter, transforming a standalone drive into an intelligent, networked node capable of real-time data exchange with PLCs and other drives. As a critical component for B2B industrial automation, the E82ZAFCC210 is frequently utilized in synchronized material handling, packaging machinery, and modular plant engineering where localized intelligence and reduced wiring are paramount.

Technical Configuration

The E82ZAFCC210 architecture centers on a robust CANopen system bus interface, allowing for high-speed cyclic and acyclic data transfer. The "PT" designation typically refers to its integrated support for specific I/O configurations or "Pass-Through" logic, facilitating efficient signal routing within the 8200 Vector platform. The hardware is designed for industrial-grade EMI resistance and features a standard terminal strip for field wiring. It supports standard CANopen DS301 profiles, enabling the drive to be controlled via Process Data Objects (PDO) and configured via Service Data Objects (SDO). Integrated diagnostic LEDs provide immediate visual confirmation of the CAN bus status and internal module health, significantly reducing commissioning and troubleshooting time in the field.

Technical Specifications

Technical FAQs

Does the E82ZAFCC210 require an external power supply?

No. The module is powered directly through the 8200-series inverter's internal system bus interface. However, ensure the inverter is powered down during installation to protect the digital transceivers.

How do I configure the CAN node address for this module?

The node address (Node ID) and baud rate are typically set via parameters in the 8200-series inverter using a keypad (EMZ8201BB) or Global Drive Control (GDC) software. Common parameter codes for CAN configuration include C0350 (Node ID) and C0351 (Baud Rate).

Can this module be used for safety-related control tasks?

The E82ZAFCC210 is a standard communication and I/O module. While it can transmit status data, it is not a certified safety module (like an STO module). All safety-critical stop functions should be implemented using dedicated safety hardware.

Engineering & Installation Guide

• Bus Termination Requirements: In a CANopen network, the physical ends of the trunk cable must be terminated with a 120 Ohm resistor across CAN_High and CAN_Low. If the E82ZAFCC210 is the last node in the line, ensure a termination resistor is installed at its terminals to prevent signal reflections.

• Shielding and Topology: Use only twisted-pair, shielded cables certified for CANopen use. The shield should be grounded at a single point, typically at the master PLC, or via the inverter’s EMC shield plate. Maintain a strict linear (daisy-chain) topology; avoid long stubs (stubs > 0.3m at 1Mbit) as they cause timing errors and bus drops.

• Module Hot-Plugging Warning: The E82ZAFCC210 is not hot-swappable. Always disconnect the mains and wait for the inverter's DC bus to discharge (at least 5 minutes) before inserting or removing the module. Failure to do so can result in permanent damage to the inverter's internal communication bus.
