Simple to configure, time-saving to install and bring into operation

Contactless position measurement technology with IO-Link Micropulse PF IO-Link is an absolute and non-contact position measuring system that continuously provides measurements in μm on a 1 ms cycle. These measured values are directly transferred digitally via IO-Link.

IO-Link is a point-to-point connection within any network. An IO-Link system consists of an IO-Link device such as a sensor or actuator, an IO-Link master and the wiring. Master modules are available with all current field bus protocols. The Micropulse PF IO-Link device is coupled to the master via a maximum 20 m long standard sensor/actuator line. Micropulse PF IO-Link operates using COM3 communication speed (230 kB), which achieves a process data cycle of 1 ms with a 1.1 master.
The user interface can be mapped in the engineering system using an IODD (IO Device Description) via IO-Link. Due to the continuous flow of information, all data is centrally and consistently saved, so that a configuration is possible and reproducible at any time.
