Pilz has announced a new remote I/O module: PDP67 PN.
The PDP67 PN module can be installed directly on the machine. Interface and universal connections can be configured as inputs or outputs. As only one device type is needed, users also save stockholding space and costs.
Decentralized I/O systems are an important component for flexible and modular automation solutions. Equipped with protection type IP67 and robust die cast zinc housing, the new remote I/O module PDP67 PN is suited for positioning directly on the machine. Even outside the control cabinet it provides reliable safety at temperatures of -30°C to 70°C.
Sensors and actuators can be connected quickly and simply to the PDP67 module thanks to M12 plug-in connectors. Complex wiring is not required, which saves time during operations but also ensure modular production plants can be expanded more easily. Thanks to universal connections, users only need to keep one type of PDP67 PN in stock.
The new remote I/O module can be integrated into the network of the remote IO system PSSuniversal 2 from Pilz, as well as any other Profinet/Profisafe networks. As a result, PDP67 PN is optimal for monitoring safety and non-safety-related sensors and actuators in environments with extreme temperatures. In addition to applications in packaging technology, robotics or forming, PDP67 PN is particularly suitable for the automotive industry.
