Converter digitises up to three analogue signals – compact, rugged, and ideal for retrofits in harsh industrial environments.
The IOC 074 is the first IO-Link converter on the market capable of digitizing up to three analog signals (4–20 mA and 0–20 mA) simultaneously. With dimensions of just 14 mm in diameter and 63 mm in length, it is perfectly suited for tight installation spaces, control cabinets, enclosures or compact system layouts. Its stainless steel housing is rated IP65, IP66, and IP67, offering reliable protection even in harsh industrial environments.
Installation is straightforward: the converter is connected between the analog sensor and the IO-Link master using standard M12 connectors and cables. A universal pipe clip is included for secure and flexible mounting.
No calculations needed.
Configuration is fully software-based using IO-Link tools such as “LR-Device” and the corresponding IODD file. Users can easily define measurement ranges for temperature, pressure, or other physical parameters.
The IOC 074 handles the scaling automatically and supplies pre-processed values to the control system – with no need for manual conversions or additional hardware. This makes it a user-friendly solution that integrates seamlessly into existing infrastructures and significantly simplifies commissioning.
Future-ready retrofit.
For machine builders, plant operators, or retrofit projects in manufacturing, the IOC 074 delivers real added value: analog sensors can be upgraded to IO-Link with minimal effort. This not only enables integration into modern control systems but also enhances process transparency and operational efficiency.
This is a smart, straightforward, and cost-effective path toward digitalization in industrial environments - a practical answer to the challenges of connected manufacturing.
