Product Description

Description

The BECKHOFF IP2330-B518 is a compact decentralized Fieldbus Box designed for industrial automation environments requiring robust machine-level signal connection and communication. Operating as a CANopen slave device, this modular IP67-rated module integrates directly into machine frames without requiring a control cabinet, connecting peripheral sensors and actuators directly to the fieldbus network.

Equipped with an integrated tee-connector for the CANopen interface, the unit facilitates straightforward daisy-chain wiring topologies using standard M12 circular connectors. It handles process data through configurable PDO mapping and supports advanced diagnostic and operational features to ensure reliable communication within distributed automation architectures.

Features

  • CANopen slave interface with automatic baud rate detection from 10 kbaud up to 1 Mbaud
  • Integrated M12 tee-connector for streamlined bus wiring and reduced hardware overhead
  • Supports up to 16 send and 16 receive process data objects (PDOs)
  • Advanced CANopen functions including life guarding, node guarding, emergency objects, variable mapping, and store/restore capabilities
  • Rugged IP65, IP66, and IP67 protection rating for harsh industrial conditions without control cabinets
  • Separate control voltage and peripheral power supply inputs with dedicated M8 connectors

Applications

  • Decentralized machine control systems and modular plant engineering
  • Automated material handling and conveyor lines requiring distributed I/O nodes
  • Packaging machinery and assembly stations operating in harsh or washdown environments
  • Industrial installations requiring cabinet-free machine mounting and M12 connectivity
