I/O modules with 8 IO-Link ports and the expandable IO-Link I/O Hub are used for washdown environments
For strict hygiene requirements
New network modules developed for harsh environments in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The corrosion- and cleaner-resistant modules with stainless steel housing are designed for easy cleaning and ensure reliable and correct signal transmission, even in demanding environments.
The product range includes an IO-Link master with 8 IO-Link interfaces installed on the machine, each port can be configured as a bidirectional input or output, or a variety of IO-Link sensors or actuator modules can be connected.
IO-Link's efficient point-to-point connection makes the distributed architecture flexible and future-ready for scalability. The network nodes configured with IO-Link masters via EtherNet/IP communicate directly with the controller or the control device of the machine.
Features:
■8 IO-Link ports for connecting various IO-Link devices
■Up to 16 configurable I/O points, each with an LED for error diagnosis
■Large LED status light is used for monitoring port and network communication
■ Integrated web service area function for configuring and monitoring module information (IP address, settings, parameters,... )
■The expansion port on the IO-Link I/O Hub is used to connect an IO-Link valve terminal connector or an IO-Link
■Sensor/Actuator Hub (and can increase the number of I/O points to a maximum of 30)
■IP69 protection level for resistant to corrosive and detergent environments
■All network modules are ECOLAB certified
