Smart Connector, 4-Port Ethernet IO-Link Master, PWM Connector, Functional Fitting
Description
Smart Connector According to the digitization of the „last meters“ in the automation technology, nass magnet as an expert in pneumatic valve actuators presents the innovative valve driver with IO-Link interface, implemented in a DIN interface connector. Connected valves can be remotely controlled and monitored via the network using this peer-to-peer interface. Using a master, diagnostic data for the connector, solenoid coil and valve system can be retrieved, monitored and connected to cloud-based systems. For use in extreme environmental conditions nass magnet also offers highly robust versions of the smart connector in the protection classes IP65/IP67. Condition monitoring - Diagnostic data: The IO-Link connector has numerous diagnostic data: - Coil condition - Valve malfunction - Supply voltage - Output current - Load resistance - Power consumption of the solenoid coil - Temperature - Switch-on time of the valve PWM Mode: To reduce the power consumption of the connected solenoid coil, smart connector offers PWM mode. The Pulse Width Modulation mode allows us to regulate the output current. Pull time can be set up to maximum 2.000 milliseconds to ensure the perfect pull-in of the valve. In this phase the coil receives the full power. After pull time, the PWM mode is activated. The required power reduction can be achieved by adjusting the duty cycle parameter. The PWM operation works also in Standard* mode. *Without using IO-Link communication Smart Connector can be used on any solenoid valve in: Packaging machines (FFS, flow-wrap, sealing units, dosing systems) Conveyors & material handling units Pneumatic actuators controlling cylinders & grippers Robotics and pick-and-place units Filling and dosing systems Utility equipment requiring pneumatic control 4-Port Ethernet IO-Link Master The digitalisation and automation of industrial production is progressing. Making an innovative step, nass magnet, as an expert in modular and compact electromagnetic components, presents the new 4-port Ethernet IO-Link Master, focused on Industry 4.0 and IIoT, implemented in a new designed housing. Connected sensors and actuators can be remotely controlled and monitored via the network using the Ethernet TCP/IP interface. Using IIoT Master, data from sensors and actuators can be easily collected and transmitted to the IT/Cloud level, where the incoming information can be evaluated and stored. The Ethernet IO-Link Master was designed especially for Industry 4.0 environment, with full capability to serve IIoT systems and applications. Easy installation: The integrated web GUI offers a convenient interface for: -IO-Link gateway / Network configuration -IO-Link Port configuration -IO-Link Device configuration -IODD-less ISDU (Indexed Service Data Unit) parameterization -Basic security settings -SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) time synchronization Data storage: All configured parameters of the connected devices can be stored in the unit. When replacing any of them the stored parameters are downloaded automatically. It will save time and cost in case of maintenance and significantly reduce the number of possible faults. Advantages / Benefits -State-of-the-Art Web GUI interface -Direct device access over Ethernet without industrial Fieldbus and PLC -Easy Node-RED integration -Harmonized with the latest IO-Link standards -Cost effective design Features -IO-Link V1.1.3 compatible Master -Ethernet/TCP-IP interface, -DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) or static IP address configuration -Standardized JSON mapping -Node-RED integration supported -4 independent powered IO-Link Class A ports -IP67 Protection Function fittings These are screw-in pneumatic valves such as non-return valves, pressure regulators, and supply air and exhaust air throttles for controlling and regulating compressed air networks.
