IO-Link master: Connection of sensors to the PLC and to the IT world

IO-Link master for the automation and IT world

The decentralised IO-Link master modules serve as a gateway between intelligent IO-Link sensors and the field bus. Besides, important information of the intelligent sensors can simultaneously be sent into the IT world. With a separate IoT Ethernet socket the IT network can be set up completely

separated from the automation network. Sensor information is transferred into the IT world via the established TCP/IP JSON interface.

Robust field bus modules for demanding applications

Thanks to their special housing materials and high ingress resistance (IP 67 or IP 69K), they can be used in coolant applications or directly in wet areas in the food industry. The ecolink technology guarantees reliable, permanently ingress resistant M12 connections of the connection cables.
