SHC 071 IO-Link Sensor Hub
The IO-Link Sensor Hub SHC 071 records measuring data from up to four external non IO-Link sensors on a process level and transmits data via an IO-Link Master for control and monitoring applications, using options such as an edge computer, cloud based system or PLC. Standard IO-Link sensors are connected to one IO-Link Master port each. By using the Sensor Hub up to four external sensors can be connected, but they only use one IO-Link Master port (see illustrations Connection Comparison). This allows you to attach up to three more IO-Link devices to an IO-Link Master. The Sensor Hub SHC 071 comes with a universal mounting bracket which offers six different DIN rail or screw mounting options (see operating instructions)
