Description

Designed to interface decentralized I/O signals directly in the field, the IL2302-B518 serves as a robust CANopen coupler box within the Beckhoff Fieldbus Box system. This module provides direct connection of IP-Link extension modules to a CANopen network, offering a highly efficient solution for distributing digital and analog signals without requiring a protective control cabinet.

The IL2302-B518 coordinates the transfer of decentralized process data from up to 120 extension modules to the higher-level controller. By integrating the fieldbus interface, power supply connections, and IP-Link communication into a single compact housing, this module minimizes installation complexity and space requirements in demanding industrial environments.

Features

  • Supports connection of up to 120 IP-Link extension modules.
  • Handles a maximum of 128 bytes of input data and 128 bytes of output data.
  • Integrated T-connector for seamless CANopen network routing.
  • Automatic detection of data transfer rates from 10 kbaud up to 1 Mbaud.
  • Comprehensive CANopen feature support including Node Guarding, Life Guarding, and Emergency Objects.
  • Configurable via the KS2000 software tool or through standard Service Data Objects (SDOs).

Applications

  • Heavy industrial machinery and manufacturing lines.
  • Material handling and conveyor systems.
  • Packaging and food processing equipment.
  • Decentralized control installations in washdown or high-dust zones.

Installation Guidelines

  • Ensure the unit is securely mounted to a flat surface using the integrated mounting holes.
  • To maintain the IP67 protection rating, all unused M8 and M12 connection ports must be sealed with appropriate protective caps.
  • Verify that the control voltage is stable at 24 V DC before powering the network.
  • Keep bus cables isolated from high-voltage AC cables to minimize electromagnetic interference.
