SAE J1939 Enabled Temperature Scanner Monitor up to 20 Thermocouples and Two RTDs
Posted by on
Axiomatic, a designer and manufacturer of electronic controllers and power management converters, introduced their AX180800 temperature scanner that monitors up to 20 thermocouples and two RTDs. The device features two SAE J1939 interfaces.
The channels are independently configurable as Type J, K, B, E, N, R, S or T thermocouples, measuring exhaust, winding, and fluid temperature. All temperature data are automatically transmitted over the CAN network when power is applied. No additional programming or configuration is required. The SAE J1939 Parameter Groups are manufacturer-specific. In addition to the TC (thermocouple) and RTD (resistance temperature detector) inputs, there are four universal signal command inputs and six Form-C relay outputs. Integral diagnostics determine thermocouple integrity.
All inputs are galvanically isolated from the CAN Bus lines and the power supply. The two CAN Bus channels are also isolated, allowing for different CAN Bus networks to be connected. The network separation is also reflected in the software, where each CAN Bus channel acts independently, and incoming or outgoing J1939 messages can be assigned to a specific CAN channel. The scanner comes in a rugged IP67-rated enclosure and is suitable for control systems for industrial and marine power generator sets.
SAE J1939 Starter Kit and Network Simulator
Our JCOM.J1939 Starter Kit and Network Simulator is designed to allow the experienced engineer as well as the beginner to experiment with SAE J1939 data communication without the need of connecting to a real-world J1939 network, i.e. a diesel engine.
The starter kit allows you to monitor, simulate, and record any PGN as defined in the SAE J1939-71 Standard but also includes diagnostic messages according to SAE J1939-73.
Marine Flow Meter With SAE J1939 Interface For Fuel Consumption Measurement
The DFM Marine flow meter by Technoton represents a system for the direct measurement of fuel consumption in engine lines or fuel lines of boilers/burners, designed for fuel systems with hourly consumption from 20 to 4,000 l/h. The CAN Bus / SAE J1939 interface provides more than sixty useful parameters and counters, transmits data (PGN) according to the SAE J1939 [...]
Introduction To The NMEA 2000 Marine Networking Standard
NMEA 2000 is a marine networking standard created and administered by the National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA). The NMEA is an association of marine electronics manufacturers, dealers, and technicians. The NMEA 2000 standard describes a low-cost, moderate capacity, bi-directional, multi-transmitter, multi-receiver instrument network. Typical data on a network using this standard include position latitude and longitude, [...]
