Allen-Bradley ArmorBlock IO-Link master

Tuesday, 13 September, 2016 | Supplied by: Rockwell Automation Australia


The Allen-Bradley ArmorBlock IO-Link master stores up to 40 timestamps of sensor events on each channel. This event history can help users track changes and more easily diagnose issues. Input timestamps of all sensor data also can be sent to the controller upon a change of state. It is claimed that these and other diagnostics available through the device can reduce issue resolution time by as much as 90%, improve preventive maintenance and optimise overall system performance.

While the ArmorBlock IO-Link master is ruggedised for use in harsh applications, the Rockwell Automation portfolio also includes an in-cabinet solution for light applications. The on-machine option requires only a single cable from the cabinet, reducing the number and length of cable runs and potential failure points.

The ArmorBlock IO-Link master includes connectivity for up to eight IO-Link sensors. The master and sensors share an IP address, helping end users reduce the cost and time to commission equipment.
