New Product Release : CONPROSYS™ IO-Link Master for Use with Multiple Global Industrial Ethernet Protocols

Contec Co., Ltd. has developed a new IO-Link master that supports use with four types of industrial Ethernet protocols—CC-Link IE Field Basic, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and PROFINET.

Model	Product Name
CPSL-08P1EN	IO-Link Master (8-channel)

 
This new product (CPSL-08P1EN) is equipped with eight Class A M12 connector IO-Link ports and serves as a gateway for efficiently integrating industrial Ethernet backbone networks with IEC61131-9 compliant IO-Link. It features 8 channel IO-Link ports of Class A M12 connectors, IP67 protection class dust- and drip-proof performance and can even withstand usage in environments with ambient temperatures between −20°C to +60°C. Supports use with four types of industrial Ethernet protocols—CC-Link IE Field Basic, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and PROFINET. Switching between protocols is easy using the rotary switch located on the casing.
　Until now, IoT investments made to production lines in the manufacturing industry mostly included only controllers or HMIs (Human-Machine-Interfaces) designed to enhance visualization. However, by using the CONPROSYS™ IO-Link, it is now possible to view statuses and diagnostic information at the component level—such as those of sensors or actuators—from upper levels. This functionality contributes to decreased production line downtime by enabling advance detection of equipment malfunctions and predictive maintenance.
