Common application cases of CAN to fiber optic converter
1. Communication between wind turbine nacelle and tower base: The encoder data from the wind turbine nacelle needs to be transmitted to the control cabinet located at the tower base, which is 3 kilometers away. Traditional cable transmission has a high data loss rate. By using a CAN-to-fiber optic converter and transmitting via single-mode fiber optic cable, stable transmission without relaying is achieved, with a data success rate of 99.99%. Additionally, it is capable of preventing lightning strikes and electromagnetic interference.
2. Interconnection of BMS fire protection system in energy storage power station: In the energy storage power station, the battery cluster BMS and fire protection controller are susceptible to interference due to the high-voltage DC environment. The converter achieves electrical isolation to avoid ground loop current, and optical fiber long-distance transmission ensures the stability of battery status and fire alarm signals, adapting to cross-zone communication in large power stations.
3. Communication in rail transit train compartments: CAN devices such as compartment door control and braking systems require cross-compartment communication, which is subject to interference from high-voltage cables and strong electromagnetic environments. Converters are used to connect compartment devices in series via hand-in-hand topology optical fibers, providing strong anti-interference capabilities and covering the entire train compartment transmission distance, ensuring reliable train control signals.
4. Robot control in automobile manufacturing welding workshop: During the operation of welding robots in the welding workshop, the welding current generates strong electromagnetic interference that affects CAN signals. The converter connects multiple robots to the central control system in a star topology, and fiber-optic transmission is immune to interference. It can connect multiple workshops, enabling centralized control and data synchronization of robots.
5. Networking of fire alarm system in large shopping malls: Large shopping malls have multiple fire zones and long distances, making traditional CAN communication between the fire host and detectors susceptible to strong electrical interference and limited by distance. The converter connects the alarm devices in each zone to the control center via fiber optics, supporting ring network redundancy to ensure no loss or false alarms of alarm signals.
