Good sensors only deliver value if they are easy to connect, configure, and scale. Here is how our connection kits and tools make that possible.
Specifying the right sensor is only the first part of getting useful data out of a test rig or vehicle. The second, often underestimated, part is getting that sensor physically and electrically connected with minimal fuss. Our range of connection kits and tools exists precisely to remove that friction, allowing engineers to move from sensor selection to working data acquisition in hours rather than days.
Why Connection Kits Matter
CAN bus sensors are only as useful as the ease with which they can be wired into an existing system. A sensor that requires a bespoke wiring harness, custom connectors, or significant in-house cable assembly adds cost and delay to a project, particularly during early prototyping when speed of iteration matters most. Our connection kits and tools are designed around this reality, offering ready made cables, adapters, and development boards that get a sensor talking to a CAN network with the minimum possible engineering overhead.
Kit di sviluppo Nano
Il Kit di sviluppo Nano is the natural starting point for engineers working with our environmental sensor range, including Cell Guard, H Guard, and Air Wise. Designed for rapid desktop analysis, it allows a sensor to be connected and interrogated immediately, without needing to build out a full vehicle or test rig integration first. This makes it especially valuable during initial product evaluation, firmware development, or training new team members on sensor behaviour before committing to a full installation.
Kit Nano Link
Many real world applications call for more than one sensor on the same CAN bus, whether that is multiple Cell Guard units monitoring different zones of a large battery pack, or several Air Wise sensors tracking air quality across different cabin or enclosure locations. The Kit Nano Link allows multiple sensors from the Metis environmental sensor range to be linked together cleanly, supporting scalable, multi-point monitoring without each sensor needing its own dedicated wiring run back to a central controller.
Kit di connessione da A a D
Our Modulo CAN analogico-digitale bridges legacy analogue sensors into modern CAN based systems, and the dedicated Kit di connessione da A a D is built specifically to accompany it. Whether you are converting signals from resistance based temperature sensors, pressure switches, or position sensors, the connection kit simplifies the physical wiring side of the integration, complementing the module’s built in pull down resistors and configurable CAN addressing.
Nano Fit Cable and JWPF Cable
For engineers who need flexible, off the shelf cabling rather than a full kit, our Cavo Nano Fit range is available in female to female or female to flying lead configurations, while the Cavo JWPF provides a 300mm female to female option for our JWPF connector based R&D sensor range. Both are designed to automotive grade reliability standards, suitable for use in test environments and permanent installations alike.
R&D Link Kit and R&D Development Kit
Our legacy JWPF connector based R&D sensor range, including the R&S Sensore CAN di sicurezza della batteria e Sensore CAN di qualità dell'aria R&S, is supported by its own Kit di collegamento R&S for connecting multiple sensors together, and a comprehensive Kit di sviluppo R&S that bundles a CAN adaptor alongside the sensor connection hardware, giving engineers everything needed to get a JWPF based sensor running on a desktop or test bench from a single purchase.
Choosing the Right Kit for Your Project
As a general rule, early stage evaluation and prototyping benefits most from a development kit, giving engineers a fast, low commitment way to assess sensor performance before specifying a full installation. Once a project moves toward a permanent or production deployment involving multiple sensors, a link kit becomes more relevant, allowing several sensors to share a single CAN bus connection efficiently. For one-off cable requirements, our individual cable options provide flexibility without the need to purchase a full kit.
Built Around Real Engineering Workflows
Across the range, the guiding principle behind our connection kits and tools is the same one that runs through our entire sensor portfolio: integration should be straightforward, regardless of whether you are working on a single prototype or a multi-sensor production deployment. Combined with configurable CAN bus speed and address and supplied DBC files across our sensor range, these kits are designed to get engineers from unboxing to usable data as quickly as possible.
