The IFM CR3133 is a modern CANwireless module with an external antenna connection for wireless communication with mobile-machine CAN systems. It combines CAN communication with WLAN and Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity. The module provides two analogue inputs and one digital output for additional machine-related functions. It supports a 6...36 V DC supply and is designed for 12 V and 24 V vehicle systems. Its IP67-rated construction makes it suitable for demanding mobile-machine environments.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The CR3133 provides wireless connectivity to CAN-based mobile-machine systems. It can be used for local service access, diagnostics and wireless machine communication. The external antenna connection allows the radio antenna to be positioned appropriately for the machine installation. Two CAN interfaces are available in the current CANwireless architecture. This enables data from different CAN networks to be exchanged through the wireless system. The module is suitable for machine-to-machine and machine-to-service communication.
The CR3133 supports WLAN communication together with Bluetooth Low Energy. Wireless connectivity enables service personnel to access machine information without connecting directly to the CAN wiring. Local wireless networking can also be used for exchanging selected machine data between compatible machines. The device can participate in wireless mesh-type communication architectures. Data filtering can help transfer only the information required by the application.
The CR3133 includes two analogue inputs and one digital output in addition to its wireless communication functionality. The analogue inputs support 0...15 V signals with 12-bit resolution. The digital output operates across a 6...36 V DC range. These additional channels can be used for machine-related signals and auxiliary control functions. The device operates from 6...36 V DC and includes reverse-polarity and overvoltage protection.
