Interface 1200 and Model 1201 Series IO-Link Universal and Compression-Only Load Cells are IO-Link compatible load cells that offer precision force measurements with the benefits of digital communication. They connect directly to an IO-Link Master without requiring any additional electronics. This not only simplifies installation but also ensures a clean, noise-free digital signal. 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.
