Balluff: BNI IO-Link Sensor/Actuator Hubs

February 13, 2024

With their rugged housings, Balluff’s BNI IO-Link sensor/actuator hub series are ideal for use in harsh industrial environments.

The I/O blocks are based on M12 or M8 plug connections, making them easy and economical to install and maintain.

The port-specific single-channel monitoring detects short circuit and overloads, as well as a cable break at the port. This degree of selective diagnosis is unique among I/O blocks.

Highest functionality with the best flexibility offers our different variants of BNI IO-Link sensor/actuator hub series. Different units allow you to meet your specific demands and requirements. Depending on the application you can manage up to 16 digital inputs and outputs (with or without separate supply voltage for high load) or up to 8 analog signals.

Depending on the application, Balluff offers different types of housings, for example plastic and metal, as well as different IP protection classes.

Features

  • Simple and cost-saving installation and maintenance
  • Detects short circuits, overloads, and cable breaks at the port
  • Great flexibility due to a wide range of variants

Pilz: PSENini Inductive Safety Switches

The inductive safety switches PSENini enable the safe detection of positions within a machine. They detect the approach of metallic objects without any contact, thereby supplying the necessary safe signals about positions and end limits. The inductive function principle minimises wear and increases the service life. You work safely, with high productivity. The PSENini detects positions such as end limits, for example, with safety and precision. This inductive proximity switch can also be used to generate the pulse for counting tasks or to detect rotational movements. In doing so the sensor does not need any specially coded actuators. It reacts to metals and can be integrated simply into the machine, saving space.

Wöhner Presents Groundbreaking Motor Starters MOTUS C14 Based on C14-Technology

With the motor starters of the MOTUS C14 series from Wöhner, short circuits become less scary. If an error occurs, the electronics switch off the motor within a maximum of 10 microseconds. This means that the MOTUS C14 reacts faster than any fuse and this with a low I2t value. By comparison, the reaction time of a conventional fuse-link is about 2,000 microseconds. With a circuit breaker, the switch-off time in case of a fault is even 5,000 microseconds.
