IFM AL1901

The IO-Link Master CL PN 8P IP20 provides a critical interface for connecting up to eight IO-Link devices, ensuring seamless communication between automation networks and IT infrastructures. With a compact design suitable for DIN rail mounting, it occupies minimal space within control panels.

This device operates within a voltage range of 20 to 30 V DC and has a total current load capacity of 3.6 A. It features eight digital inputs and eight digital outputs, both compliant with IO-Link Port Class A, allowing for versatile integration in various applications. The digital inputs are designed for high switching levels between 11 to 30 V, while the outputs can handle a maximum current load of 300 mA, with inherent short-circuit protection.

The communication capabilities include a PROFINET interface and a separate MQTT JSON interface, supporting transmission standards of 10Base-T and 100Base-TX at rates of 10 MBit/s and 100 MBit/s respectively. Additionally, it supports secure protocols such as HTTPS and features multiple redundancy and management protocols, including SNMP and MRP. The device is rated for operation in ambient temperatures between -25°C and 65°C and can withstand a maximum relative humidity of 90%.

Manufactured with a weight of 317.9 g and housed in a rectangular PA orange casing, the IO-Link Master is robustly designed for reliable performance. Its compliance with various EMC standards ensures it meets necessary regulatory requirements.
