Quick sensor changes and fast commissioning
IO-Link sensors

IO-Link enables fast, error-free sensor replacement and prompt commissioning. Since the parameters of a replaced IO-Link sensor are automatically written to the new sensor by the IO-Link master or the controller, you are able to significantly reduce downtimes. In addition, commissioning processes, format changes or recipe changes can be handled centrally via the controller's function blocks. This saves time and minimizes opportunities for errors. Another advantage for you is that IO-Link devices cannot be mixed up, as they can be identified automatically via IO-Link.
Features
- Quick, easy and cost-effective installation with three- or four-wire industry-standard cables
- Process, event and service data is collected
- Master or controller can store parameters for use with replacement devices
- Condition monitoring functions in select sensors
