Safety expert PILZ has just announced that the PDP67 PN 8FDIO 4IOLS IO-Link Safety Master is now AVAILABLE!
What does that mean for you?
This now ready for production and available to order. This safety solution has been designed with an IP67/ IP69K module expanding PILZ’s decentralized I/O portfolio with a flexible, high-performance solution for both standard and fail-safe applications — even in the harshest industrial environments.
The PDP67 IO-Link Safety Master connects up to four IO-Link Safety or IO-Link devices (4× IOLS ports) and provides four configurable safe ports (4× 2FDIOs), which can be used as either safe inputs or safe outputs. PILZ new safety solution offers up to 8 fail-safe digital inputs and outputs, making it ideal for decentralized safety architectures and modular machine designs.
The IO-Link Safety Master PDP67 from Pilz is a versatile, all-purpose device designed to connect a wide variety of components. It supports IO-Link and IO-Link Safety, as well as safe and standard input/output (I/O) signals. By incorporating dedicated functional safety communication, it significantly extends the capabilities of a traditional IO-Link Master.
As a decentralised interface to the higher-level safety controller, the IO-Link Safety Master facilitates seamless point-to-point connections directly at the field level. Furthermore, the module features configurable ports, allowing for the flexible processing of both safe input and output signals.
Your benefits at glance:
- Maximum flexibility due to suitable connection options for IO-Link, IO-Link Safety, safe input and output signals, standard signals, OSSD
- Universally configurable, safe inputs/outputs
- Decentralised installation of safety-related, digital field devices
- Installation almost anywhere due to compact and robust housing
- Can be used up to protection type IP67 / IP69K
- Reduced wiring due to plug-and-play with standardised M12 plug-in connections
- Simple configuration due to proven PILZ tools
- Integrated web server for rapid fault diagnostics
Features of the IO-Link Safety Master PDP67:
- 4x IO-Link Safety ports
- 4x ports, each with two configurable safe digital inputs or outputs
- Profinet / Profisafe Device
- Interface: M12, 5-pin ports
- Protection class: IP67/ IP69K
- Housing: Die cast zinc metal
- Ambient temperature: -30 °C to +70 °C
