IO-LINK:
IO-Link is the first globally standardized IO technology (IEC 61131-9) that communicates from the controller down to the lowest automation
level. This universally applicable interface is a fieldbus-neutral point-to-point connection which uses standard unshielded cables. IO-Link
sends all the sensor and actuator signals to the controller and in turn carries controller data to the sensor/actuator level with revolutionary
consequences.
It is possible to have IO-Link device of two different type: IO-Link Class A and IO-Link Class B. ADFweb.com’s converters can manage both
of them in relation to the product code selected.
In both cases, the power supply is taken directly from IO-Link interface and it has a maximum consumption of 2 W (80 mA).
