IO-Link Compatible PFMC7--L-
Supports the IO-Link communication protocol
IO-Link is an open communication interface
technology between the sensor/actuator
and the I/O terminal that is an international
standard: IEC 61131-9.

The diagnostic bit in the cyclic process data makes it easy to find problems with the equipment.
It is possible to find problems with the equipment in real time using the cyclic (periodic) data and to monitor such problems in detail with the noncyclic (aperiodic) data.
For the control of air consumptionFor the control of air consumption
Can be used for the flow control,
etc., of the main line and branch
lines
The instantaneous flow, set value,
and accumulated value can be
checked at the same time.
