G3 CAN

Dedicated CAN receiver for machines with controllers

The G3 CAN receiver is designed for machines that already feature a master controller, emphasizing a single, reliable CAN interface. Out of the box, it supports CANopen and provides hardwired signals for a seamless stop function. For OEMs seeking a straightforward path to remote control—without additional I/O overhead—the G3 CAN merges safety loops with a simple setup, delivering stable performance in both standard and demanding applications. By eliminating unnecessary I/O complexity, you can focus on refining your machine’s core functionality while maintaining a rigorous safety standard.

Purpose-built

Straight-to-CAN simplicity

With native CANopen support, the G3 CAN easily integrates into your machine’s existing network, removing the need for extra wiring. This streamlined communication helps minimize installation time and reduce potential failure points, allowing your master controller to concentrate on its core tasks.

Reliable

Safety-first architecture

G3 CAN has multiple safety classified outputs with slight different functionality and features. Dual safety-loops makes it easy to integrate with safety loops on the machine. Dual dump valve outputs, DV1 which is active when any of the levers/joysticks are active, and DV2 which is active when radio/cable link is active. These versatile built-in safeguards guarantee no unintended movements from stand-still and instant machine stop in case of lost radio link or engaged stop

Perfect fit

Flexibility in supply & control

Operate on 12 or 24 VDC, choose between radio or cable-based control, and leverage robust frequency-hopping in the ISM band for interference-resistant operations. This versatility allows the G3 CAN to adapt to a range of system designs and environments, making it a cost-effective solution for diverse OEM requirements.
