The DFE02 (37262-4-0369566) is a high-performance Ethernet-based fieldbus communication module designed for the ABB Freelance 2000 DCS and specific ACS drive series (ACS550/ACS800). It serves as a bridge between high-speed industrial Ethernet networks and ABB control hardware, supporting multi-protocol environments including Modbus TCP/IP and EtherNet/IP. The DFE02 enables real-time drive parameterization, status monitoring, and seamless integration into modern Distributed Control Systems (DCS) and SCADA environments without the need for an external power supply.
The DFE02 (37262-4-0369566) is optimized for low-latency communication in mission-critical industrial Ethernet loops.

Dual-Protocol Support: The DFE02 (37262-4-0369566) allows simultaneous or selectable Modbus TCP and EtherNet/IP connectivity, making it compatible with a wide range of PLCs and industrial controllers from multiple vendors.
Internal Bus Integration: When used as a "Field Device Enclosure" (FDE) accessory in larger DCS systems like 800xA or Freelance, it ensures the safe routing of communication signals through standardized DIN rail mounting.
Zero External Wiring for Power: The module draws its logic power directly from the drive's communication slot, simplifying cabinet wiring and reducing potential failure points.
Enhanced Diagnostics: Real-time feedback via system software and onboard LEDs allows for rapid isolation of network-level versus module-level faults.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
Finding brand new, original modules is critical for our safety. This team delivers factory-fresh components with full certification. Their commitment to only selling new products makes them our most trusted partner.
We have sourced Honeywell and Schneider parts here for two years. Every shipment arrives well-packaged with original factory seals intact. Clear communication and the best lead times in the industry.
