Your benefits
- Transparent mode of operation:
Unchanged transfer of read-out data to the communication device - IR interface for modular extension:
No need to replace the level converter when connecting additional measuring points, investment protection - RS232 interface for communication with PC:
Transparent communication between level converter and PC - 100-240 V AC mains power required:
No extra power supply necessary - Operating status display via LED:
Easy on-site analysis and troubleshooting
Applications
- Remote supply and remote reading of M-Bus end devices
Properties
- Signal converter from M-Bus to RS232
- DIN mounted, modular and expandable – future proof solution
- Stackable modular design M-Bus level converter for 32, 64, 128 or 256 M-Bus end devices with a standard load of 1,5 mA
- With the IR-Enabler (CMeX40) it is possible to extend existing M-Bus installations for additional M-Bus loads
- Several extension modules (additional M-Bus loads) which are mounted to the right (IR interface) of the module are available
- M-Bus protocol according to EN 13757-3
- Transfer rates: 300, 2400 Bit/s
- M-Bus short-circuit protection
- 100-240 V AC power supply
- Operating indicator with LED

1) Can be used as an extension module (additional M-Bus loads).
2) The maximum possible network reach (entire cable length) as well as the distance to the M-Bus end devices depends greatly on the network topology, the number of connected devices, the cross-section of the used cables and the transfer rate.
