- Description
The Schneider Electric VW3A3618 is a communication module that adds CANopen and CANmotion connectivity to Altivar 32, Altivar Machine ATV320/ATV340, Altivar Process ATV600/ATV900/Modular and Lexium 32 drives. It connects through a single male SUB-D9 connector and covers the same range of compatible drives as the daisy-chain RJ45 CANopen module in this series.

Selection Notes
Choose the VW3A3618 when the CANopen segment is already wired with SUB-D9 connectors rather than the daisy-chain RJ45 style. Both variants cover the same drive ranges - Altivar 32, ATV320, ATV340, ATV600, ATV900 and Lexium 32 - so the connector type on the existing network, not the protocol, decides which module to order.
