Lumberg Automation LioN-Power multiprotocol digital I/O

Monday, 28 August, 2017 | Supplied by: Belden Australia Pty Ltd


Lumberg Automation is extending its LioN-Power distributed field I/O range with the addition of EtherCAT protocol support. This version of Lumberg’s multiprotocol digital I/O platform (DI, DO, DI DO, DIO) will support all three networks (EtherNet/IP, Profinet and EtherCAT).

Lumberg has integrated, scalable, digital input/output (DIO) universal module options into the range. Users can easily adapt the modules to any I/O configuration needed, such as 12 inputs and four outputs or 11 inputs and five outputs.

Fieldbus-independent LioN-Power multiprotocol I/O modules are designed to be helpful for applications where machines or systems are built in an identical way, but with different PLCs. One single LioN-Power I/O device can be used across all three different control systems (protocols) and therefore helps design standardised machines with identical field-level components.

The modules also have the latest M12 power technology, as well as standard 7/8″ power technology. This means users don’t have to change machine designs in order to upgrade to later technologies.

The module’s M12 power technology offers a high current rating (unscaled 2 x 16 A), so users can connect at least 50% more field devices in a daisy chain when compared to standard 7/8″ power connections.

I/O options include 16 digital outputs, 16 digital inputs, eight digital inputs plus eight digital outputs, and 16 universal digital inputs/outputs.
