IO-Link master connection for intelligent sensors

September 2017 Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors

The decentralised IO-Link master modules from ifm electronic are used as gateways between intelligent IO-Link sensors and the fieldbus. They are an ideal choice, even in the most difficult environments. The materials and production methods are identical to the ifm jumper cables of the tried-and-tested EVC product series and the ecolink technology guarantees reliable, permanently ingress-resistant M12 connections of the connection cables.

Energy limitation for UL class 2 units

Many sensors require an energy-limited supply with UL class 2 approval. The limitation of energy is usually achieved via a corresponding power supply. With the AL series IO-Link master, sensors can be supplied according to UL class 2 without using an energy-limited power supply approved to UL class 2.
