IO-Link for the T.VIS® A-15
IO-Link is the first globally standardized IO technology (IEC 61131-9) to communicate with sensors and actuators.
IO-Link is the first globally standardized IO technology (IEC 61131-9) to communicate with sensors and actuators.
The powerful point-to-point communication is based on the long-known 3-wire sensor and actuator connection without any additional requirements for the cable material. Therefore, IO-Link is not a fieldbus, but the evolutionary advancement of the existing and proven connection technology for sensors, actuators and thus also for control tops of the latest generation.
Sensors and actuators can communicate
- Process data will be digitally exchanged with high signal quality.
- Components can be centrally parameterized.
- Diagnostic information can be transferred from the valve to the controller.
End to complex wiring
- Standardized and considerable simplified installation.
- IO-Link is fieldbus-independent and can be integrated into all fieldbuses worldwide.
