Automate your pneumatic processes with this logic controller from Festo. The fieldbus module connects and controls the sensors, switches and motors in your pneumatic system. A universal communications interface (UCI) and a standard-sized M12 connector mean it's compatible with many different setups. It works with two commonly-used protocols – Ethernet/IP (internet protocol) and Modbus/TCP (transmission control protocol) – for added flexibility. The six integrated LED (light-emitting diode) lights make it easy to see the status of your functions and power supply.
• Wide operating temperature between -5°C and +50°C for use in harsh conditions • PA (polyamide) housing makes it a durable component with a high resistance to oil • IP65 (ingress protection) rating indicates it's dust-tight and sealed against jets of water for use in hazardous environments
Applications
• Process control and automation • Chemical manufacturing • Agriculture and food industry
Where is this type of logic controller useful?
A logic controller like this one is useful in manufacturing industries where electrical controls are hazardous due to the presence of dust particles or moisture. This pneumatic module is suitable for complex systems with multiple devices in need of constant monitoring and controlling.
