MUX-HL-12: twelve high-level sensors onto one CAN bus
The MUX-HL-12 takes twelve high-level sensors in 3-wire connection, power, signal and ground, two per M8 6-pin connector. It powers each sensor at 4.8 V ratiometric, up to 13 mA, and digitizes a ±2.2 V input at 16 bits, with 0.1 % accuracy at 25 °C. Each channel is scaled by its sensitivity or a two-point calibration, proportional to excitation for ratiometric sensors, and zeroed by software. Output: CAN 2.0 up to 2 ksps, CAN FD up to 8 ksps, 1.6 kHz at −3 dB. Supply 10 to 36 V DC; −40 to 85 °C; IP67 with the stacking connectors.
The module ships with a power and CAN cable, a PEAK-System USB-to-CAN FD adapter and the MUX Tool software for Windows, which configures each channel, records one module to a PC and generates the DBC file for a data recorder. Up to four modules stack for 48 synchronized channels.
On a rotating part, the SR10AW/WFT slip ring and its 1024 ppr encoder mount on the stack through the MUX-ENC-ADA adapter layer; encoder position and speed come out with the module data.
