Versatility Meets Performance

The HECS-T-003 isn’t just a simple bridge; it is a sophisticated gateway designed to maximize system flexibility. Whether you are integrating legacy sensors or modern PLC systems, this converter adapts to your specific data requirements with three distinct conversion modes:

Transparent Conversion: Ensures that your data flows through the network without modification for maximum simplicity.

Transparent Conversion with Identifiers: Allows for precise data mapping by including CAN identifiers within the serial stream.

Modbus Protocol Conversion: Enables easy integration of Modbus-based serial devices into CAN-Bus environments.

With support for serial baud rates up to 115,200 bps and CAN-Bus rates reaching 1 Mbps, the HECS-T-003 ensures your data moves at the speed of your business.

Industrial-Grade Reliability

Field environments are often unforgiving, characterized by electrical noise and extreme temperatures. The HECS-T-003 is purpose-built to withstand these challenges:

Full Photoelectric Isolation: Features 1,000 VDC isolation between the CAN interface and the system to prevent ground loops and protect your equipment from voltage spikes.

Ruggedized Thermal Range: Operates reliably in extreme conditions from -40°C to 85°C, making it suitable for outdoor cabinets and heavy industrial sites.

Wide Input Voltage: Supports a flexible 12-36 VDC power input, accommodating standard industrial power supplies with ease.

Robust Protection: Integrated surge protection and anti-interference technology ensure stable, bidirectional data transmission in complex environments.

Simple Integration, Rapid Deployment

Engineered for the busy system integrator, the HECS-T-003 features a compact design with standard DIN-rail mounting for quick installation in any industrial cabinet. Configuration is straightforward thanks to the included software utility, allowing users to fine-tune interface parameters in minutes rather than hours.
