Product Description

The X20IF2772 is a communication interface module from the B&R X20 automation system. Its main purpose is to provide an interface for a CAN bus network, which is a widely used fieldbus in industrial automation and vehicle technology. The module is specifically designed to expand the capabilities of an X20 CPU, allowing it to communicate with and control devices on a CAN network.

A key feature of this module is its dual CAN bus connections with integrated terminating resistors, offering flexibility in network design.

Product Specifications

• Product Type: Communication Interface Module
• Communication Protocol: CAN bus (also supports CANopen)
• Interfaces: 2x CAN bus interfaces, each with a 5-pin male multipoint connector.
• Transfer Rate: Up to 1 Mbit/s
• Electrical Isolation: The module provides electrical isolation between the CPU/X20 system and the two CAN bus interfaces, as well as between the interfaces themselves. This is crucial for preventing ground loops and protecting the system from electrical interference.
• Power Consumption: 1.2 W
• Operating Temperature:
  • Horizontal mounting: -25 to 60°C
  • Vertical mounting: -25 to 50°C
• Mounting: Plug-in module, part of the modular B&R X20 system. Requires two separate terminal blocks, such as the TB2105.
• Terminating Resistors: Integrated into the module, which can be enabled or disabled via switches.
• Certifications: ATEX compliant (II 3G Ex nA nC IIA T5 Gc), cULus, cCSAus, and various marine certifications.

Product Advantages

• Dual CAN bus connections: Having two separate CAN interfaces on a single module offers greater flexibility and allows for the creation of more complex network topologies or communication with two distinct CAN networks.
• Seamless Integration: As part of the modular X20 System, the X20IF2772 integrates smoothly with other B&R components, simplifying system design and programming.
• Integrated Terminating Resistors: The built-in terminating resistors eliminate the need for external components, which simplifies wiring and reduces potential points of failure.
• Robust and Reliable: With electrical isolation, a wide operating temperature range, and a rugged design, this module is built to withstand demanding industrial environments.
• Diagnostics: The module includes status LEDs for a quick visual indication of the module’s status, data transfer activity, and the state of the terminating resistors, aiding in quick troubleshooting.

Important Considerations (Cautions)

• System Specificity: The X20IF2772 is designed to work as an expansion module for a B&R X20 CPU. It is not a standalone device.
• Required Accessories: You must order two terminal blocks (e.g., TB2105) separately for each CAN interface to make the wiring connections.
• Mounting Orientation: Be sure to follow the recommended mounting orientation (horizontal vs. vertical) as it affects the maximum operating temperature.
• Wiring: Always consult the official B&R user manual for specific wiring diagrams and guidelines, especially regarding shielding and grounding, to ensure proper signal integrity and reliable communication.

Product Applications

The B&R X20IF2772 is ideal for applications that need to integrate CAN-based devices into a larger automation system. Some typical applications include:

• Machine and System Manufacturing: Connecting a central B&R controller to various CAN-based sensors, actuators, and subsystems within a machine.
• Industrial Vehicles and Mobile Machinery: Acting as the main interface between the vehicle’s control unit and various CAN-based components, such as engines, sensors, and steering systems.
• Building Automation: Integrating CAN-based subsystems for lighting, HVAC, or security into a central control system.
• OEM Systems: Providing a standardized, reliable interface for original equipment manufacturers to connect their specialized CAN devices to a B&R control platform.
