IO-Link - Modules

Depending on the device type, 8 or 16 binary sensors with switching output (e.g. inductive, photoelectric or pressure sensors) can be connected to the IO-Link field module. IO-Link transmits the signals to any desired IO-Link master via one unscreened M12 connection cable. This eliminates the need for complex cable trees or parallel wiring and reduces costs. IO-Link requires no configuration or addressing. This simplifies the set-up. It is possible to connect two sensors with one switching output each (using a Y splitter) or one sensor with two switching outputs to each of the module's sockets. The modules can be used in a wide temperature range. Excellent electromagnetic stability and a robust housing qualify for reliable use in harsh industrial environments.

• For the simple connection of binary sensors to any IO-Link master
• Uses industry standard M12 unshielded patchcords
• Clearly visible LEDs for displaying operation, switching status and error
• Robust design with full potting for use in harsh industrial environments
• Up to 8 ports with two binary inputs each
