Are you ready for a simplified and efficient entry into IO-Link technology? The new generation of our I/O modules makes it a breeze. These modules are incredibly adaptable, offering up to 16 digital inputs or 8 digital inputs and outputs, depending on your application.

This adaptability allows for easy expansion and flexibility within your application. The new sensor/actuator hubs of the next generation come with eight standardized M12 ports, four of which are configurable.

But the real value of our Balluff IO-Link sensor/actuator hubs lies in their optimized housing concept and the intentional simplicity of this new generation. Sometimes, less is more. With this simplicity comes ease of use and support for basic I/O functions, without the complexity of add-ons. Plus, we've integrated a sustainable housing concept that utilizes recyclable materials without potting, adhering to eco-friendly practices while still meeting industrial standards in true Balluff quality.

Enhancing Your Processes with IO-Link

IO-Link technology brings flexibility and efficiency to your automation systems. Our new-gen IO-Link sensor/actuator hub offers an effortless entry into this technology, supporting fundamental I/O functions. You can efficiently create topologies as both communication and power supply travel over a single line. Our I/O modules seamlessly integrate standard sensors and actuators into IO-Link topologies.

Sensor/actuator hubs open up significant cost savings by reducing the need for numerous fieldbus modules and enabling efficient application scaling. In summary, our new-gen version is an ideal starting point for embracing the IO-Link standard or expanding your applications cost-effectively.

Key Features of the IO-Link Sensor/Actuator Hubs:

  • Flexibility: Available in NPN and PNP variants, offering adaptability

    • Compact and Sustainable: Optimized for moving applications with Balluff's hallmark quality

      • Fast, Effective Signal Transmission: Reduced signal runtimes thanks to the COM3 transmission standard

        • Tailored Configuration: Four of the digital ports are highly flexible, adapting to your needs

        • Efficiency: Perfectly suited for low-power signal processing
