R130C Discrete IO-Link Hub

Machine builders can quickly and easily collect discrete I/O at the source with the R130C Discrete IO-Link Hub. Featuring industry-standard top-exit M12 connectivity and 16 discrete PNP inputs, the R130C cost-efficiently integrates up to 16 non-IO-Link devices into an IO-Link system. Its compact size, along with IP65, IP66 and IP67 ratings, allow it to be mounted on a machine close to sensors. This simplifies wiring by only needing to run one cable to an IO-Link master. This eliminates the need for expensive PLC input cards and leads to smaller control cabinets. Instead of injecting extra power via splitters, 4 amps can be shared as pass-through across multiple ports for lighting products and other devices that draw higher current. Status LEDs can be viewed from both the top and side of the R130C, speeding up troubleshooting.
