Industrial Converter
Industrial converters, also called interface converters, make it possible to connect different interface standards with each other. With this feature, they play a crucial role in industrial automation, as they can ensure seamless communication between devices and systems. Converters thus enable interoperability between different interface types and thus facilitate the integration of different devices into existing networks.
Our industrial converters offer a wide range of configurations to meet the specific needs of different applications. From LAN or USB port to 1-8 serial ports, they offer flexible connectivity. With a wide variety of different ports, they enable conversion from RS 232 to RS 422/485, USB to RS 232/RS 422, RS 232 to CAN, CAN to Ethernet and much more. To withstand the demanding conditions of industrial environments, the converters are robustly designed. They offer extended temperature ranges from -25°C to +75°C, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments. The converters are flexible to install and can be DIN rail or wall mounted. The versatile mounting options facilitate integration into control cabinets, enclosures or strategic locations in industrial environments. In addition, the converters can be operated via supply voltages of 5V, 12V or 24V.

Guide to selecting the right converter
Selecting the right industrial converter or industrial interface converter is critical to ensuring optimal communication between different interfaces. A carefully selected converter can help minimize data loss, maximize performance, and increase overall network efficiency. Here are some important steps in selecting the right converter:
1. analysis of the existing interfaces:
Identify the interfaces of the devices you want to connect. Make sure that the converter supports these interfaces, be it RS 232, RS 422, RS 485, Ethernet, CAN or others.
2. consider the transmission speed:
Check the data transfer speed you need. Converters offer different transfer rates, so it is important to choose one that meets the requirements of your application.
3. consider the power supply:
Make sure the converter has the appropriate supply voltage to work in your environment. You may have options such as 5V, 12V or 24V.
4. mounting and housing:
Choose the right converter that fits the mounting method, whether on a DIN rail or on the wall. Also consider the enclosure material, plastic or metal, depending on the requirements of your environment.
5. driver support and compatibility:
Verify that the converter is compatible with the operating systems you are using. Driver support for common operating systems such as Windows® may be important.
6. future viability and expandability:
Think about possible future requirements. A converter with additional ports or flexible configuration options may prove beneficial.
Selecting the right industrial converter requires a thorough analysis of your requirements and a close examination of the technical specifications. This ensures optimal integration and communication in your network environment.
Advantages of interface conversion in industry
The industrial landscape is characterized by a variety of devices and systems that use different interfaces. This is where industrial converters come into play, enabling seamless communication between these different interfaces. These converters offer a number of benefits that contribute to optimized operations.
Interface harmonization for smooth communication:
Industrial converters act as intermediaries between devices with different interfaces, such as RS 232 and RS 422/485. By converting data into compatible formats, they ensure smooth communication and interaction, regardless of the original interfaces.
Preservation of existing investments:
Interface conversion allows companies to continue using their existing systems and devices, even if they don't have the latest interfaces. This protects investments and extends the life of older assets without the need for expensive hardware upgrades.
Seamless integration into modern networks:
By using converters, legacy systems can be integrated into modern networks without downtime or data loss. The converters ensure reliable and secure transfer of data between different devices and systems.
