Description

Note: Probes not includes, sold separately

This thermocouple-to-CAN module produces temperature data from 4 thermocouple sensors and outputs it via CAN bus. The module is 100% standalone - no PC required.

The module supports all thermocouple types (B, E, J, K, N, R, S, T) and can be daisy-chained for 8, 12, 16, ... channels.

You can integrate the module with any CAN bus system - e.g. to provide temperature data for your ECUs or existing CAN hardware.

As an example, you can use the module as an add-on for the CANedge - ideal for e.g. engine dynos, EGT analysis, HVAC monitoring and other temperature telematics use cases.

Add temperature sensor data via 4 thermocouples to your CAN bus - e.g. for use by ECUs or CAN hardware.:

- Compatible with any high speed CAN bus (2.0A, 2.0B)

- Fully configure CAN IDs, bit rate and message frequency

- Daisy-chain multiple modules for 8, 12, 16, ... channels

- Power at 5-26 V DC via standard DB9 adapter cables

- Optionally record the data via any CAN interface/logger/...

- Example: Use as add-on for the CANedge (power via 2nd port)

- DBC file included for easy decoding to human-readable form

- White label e.g. for inclusion in your production

Features:
