ILM In-Line IO-Link Amplifier

In-Line Amplifier

With a view to the requirements of Industry 4.0 applications, the digital point-to-point connection of IO-Link offers a manufacturer-independent, fieldbus-independent communication technology. IO-Link allows intelligent connection of sensors and actuators to automation systems.
The comprehensive, standardized communication with each IO-Link capable sensor enables additional sensor data, transmission of measurement and switching signals without losses, and numerous independent diagnostic functions. Sensor-level IO-Link integration not only increases productivity and reduces machine costs, but also simplifies sensor replacement while preserving redundant parameter data. Machine and system availability can be significantly increased with IO-Link capable devices by reducing downtimes and accelerating the restart during maintenance or repair.
