I/O modules for PROFINET and EtherNet/IP

Engineered for demanding environments, the new Ethernet modules ensure a reliable and efficient network structure. Enclosed in durable housings, they are well-suited for stringent hygiene requirements. The modules enable direct connection of sensors and actuators to the fieldbus level, eliminating the need for additional transmission systems. They are ideal for high-frequency counter applications, allowing direct output switching without delay. Featuring L-coded M12 connections with 2x16A for daisy-chaining, the modules guarantee a stable power supply. With protection ratings of IP65, IP66, IP67, and IP69K (with stainless steel protective caps), they cater to diverse industrial needs.

The new I/O modules integrate seamlessly with ifm's existing IO-Link master family, sharing standardized M12 connections and port configurations. This compatibility allows existing users to effortlessly expand their systems with these advanced modules. Moreover, the precise counting of sensor pulses, independent of the controller's cycle time, enhances operational accuracy and efficiency.
