3. Product Overview
The IO-Link master establishes the connection between the IO-Link device and the
automation system. As an integral part of the I/O system, the IO-Link master station is
either installed in the control cabinet, or directly installed on site as a remote I/O, and
its encapsulation level is IP65/67.
❖Designed for industrial environments, it is a system applied to automated lines.
❖Compact structure, suitable for usage scenarios with limited installation conditions.
❖IP67 high protection level, anti-interference design, suitable for demanding application
environments.
As a special reminder, IP rating is not part of UL certification.
