IO-Link sensors and masters help make it easy to collect and report performance data. Information is collected from the sensor/actuator through the IO-Link Master via a fieldbus network into the host controller. By connecting presence sensors and controllers via IO-Link, all necessary information for stable sensor operations are visible, including component identification, cable disconnections, sensor output status, light incidence and fault conditions. The IO-Link products are photoelectric sensor E3Z-IL, cylindrical inductive proximity sensor E2E-IL, spatter-resistant proximity sensor E2EQ-IL, color mark photoelectric sensor E3S-DCP21-IL and IO-Link master units GX-ILM08C for M12 connectors and NX-ILM400 for flying leads.
