Safely transmit signals amid interference from electromagnetic fields
BNI network modules

Benefit from our robust modules for reliable signal transmission even in the event of welding spatter, welding currents and electromagnetic interference fields. IO-Link's efficient point-to-point wiring allows you to set up a decentralized system architecture in the welding booth outside the control cabinet.
Network nodes equipped with an IO-Link master communicate directly with the main controller or the control unit on the machine via Industrial Ethernet. And a large number of intelligent sensors or I/O modules with an IO-Link interface can be connected to the IO-Link ports.
Features
- Made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic to reliably withstand welding spatter, welding currents and electromagnetic fields
- IO-Link masters and hubs with 8 ports and 16 inputs and outputs
- IO-Link master for Ethernet/IP and Profinet
