Why Choose the WAGO 750-338/040-000 CANopen Fieldbus Coupler?
The WAGO 750-338/040-000 is a rugged CANopen fieldbus coupler designed for the WAGO I/O System 750 XTR. It connects distributed I/O modules to CANopen automation networks, enabling reliable communication between sensors, actuators and industrial controllers in demanding environments.
The coupler automatically detects all installed digital, analogue and speciality I/O modules and creates a local process image representing the entire node configuration. Digital signals are transmitted bit-by-bit while analogue values and speciality data are transmitted as words or bytes via CANopen PDOs and SDOs, ensuring efficient process data exchange with the control system. :contentReference
This XTR (Extreme) version is engineered for harsh industrial conditions with enhanced resistance to vibration, shock, electromagnetic interference and environmental stress. With an extended operating temperature range and high EMC immunity, it is ideal for applications in energy infrastructure, transportation systems and outdoor automation installations. :contentReference

Industrial Automation Fieldbus Communication
Fieldbus couplers provide the communication bridge between distributed I/O modules and central automation controllers. The WAGO 750-338/040-000 enables sensors, actuators and monitoring devices connected to WAGO I/O modules to communicate with PLCs or industrial PCs via the CANopen industrial network.
Within the WAGO I/O System architecture, the coupler automatically maps signals from connected modules into CANopen PDO structures. Digital signals are grouped into bytes while analogue signals are transmitted as words, enabling efficient process data exchange between field devices and the automation controller. :contentReference
