Omron CJ1W-CORT21 CAN Unit

Omron CJ1W-CORT21 CAN Unit is a Sysmac user-defined CPU CAN interface module for CJ1W controllers, enabling direct CAN network connectivity within Omron automation projects. The CJ1W-CORT21 / CJ1WCORT21 designation identifies it as a Sysmac user-defined CPU CAN unit, designed to operate from a 24V DC supply with a nominal power draw of 0.5 W, suitable for compact panel mounting in energy-conscious deployments. As a CAN interface in the CJ1W family, it allows a CJ-series PLC to exchange data with CAN-connected devices, sensors, actuators, or other controllers on the same network, supporting core CAN communications within an automation system. The unit’s low power requirement and Omron compatibility help streamline installation alongside CJ-series I/O and messaging conventions. Common applications include industrial control networks that require CAN communications for distributed I/O, machine automation, and system integrations where CJ1W PLCs must interface with CAN-enabled components. The NSMP suffix is part of its product designation, aligning this module with other CJ1W CAN interface options for scalable configurations.
