Schneider STBNCO2212 CANopen Network Interface Module
Product Introduction
The STBNCO2212 from Schneider Electric belongs to the Advantys STB series. This standard network interface module (NIM) links distributed I/O islands to a CANopen fieldbus network. Engineers use it in factory automation, machine control, and process lines. As a result, the module helps reduce wiring cost and simplifies system expansion.
Technical Specifications
The STBNCO2212 supports the CANopen protocol through a built-in 9-pin SUB-D connector. This connector follows the DIN 41652 standard, so standard CANopen cables fit directly. The module runs on a 24V DC supply voltage. Moreover, one island can host up to 32 addressable I/O modules. Therefore, the NIM manages a large number of digital and analog points on a single node.
Key parameters at a glance:
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
The module measures 128.3 x 70 x 40 mm (H x W x D) and weighs only 0.145 kg. This compact size saves panel space. Meanwhile, the IP20 rating means the unit suits clean, dry control cabinets. The operating and storage temperature ranges are not available in current data. However, typical Advantys STB modules work in standard industrial environments. Please confirm thermal limits with Schneider Electric before harsh deployments.
Installation Guide
First, mount the STBNCO2212 on a standard DIN rail inside the control cabinet. Next, connect the 24V DC power supply to the module terminals. Then, plug the CANopen cable into the 9-pin SUB-D port. After that, set the node address and baud rate through the rotary switches or software tool. Finally, attach the I/O modules to the right side of the NIM. The island expands module by module up to 32 units. Additionally, keep the CANopen trunk within the allowed bus length for your chosen baud rate. Proper grounding and termination reduce communication errors.
Lifecycle Note
Schneider Electric lists the STBNCO2212 as discontinued. The Modicon X80 range now replaces this Advantys STB product. Therefore, buyers should check stock carefully before ordering. We still supply new surplus and refurbished units for legacy systems.
