The IO-Link memory plug from ifm electronic allows plant operators to manage sensor data quickly and easily. When used in combination with IO-Link sensors, the memory plug reads the data parameters automatically and stores them. The unit provides plant operators who do not yet use an IO-Link master a time-saving and low-cost option for data storage.
The data sets can be cloned in a multitude of units of the same type, and this before installation in the plant. The memory plug can also be installed within a plant outside the critical area. If the sensor is destroyed, the parameters are nevertheless saved and are available. The parameters are automatically exchanged between the memory plug and the IO-Link sensor. If the parameters of a sensor are changed, the memory plug detects this and automatically updates itself.
There is no communication between the sensor and the memory plug during operation of the machine. The signals of the sensor are transferred to the higher-level controller without delay. Thanks to the non-volatile memory the memory plug can be reconfigured as often as required and reused.
HMI with maximum performance in the smallest of spaces ifm - South Africa
SCADA/HMI
Whenever clear communication, precision and performance in the smallest of spaces are required, the most compact member of ifm’s ecomatDisplay family is the perfect choice. The 11 cm HMI makes no compromises when it comes to human-machine interaction.

Sensors & Transducers
The pulp and paper industry poses a major problem for most photoelectric sensors. The high level of contamination in these dusty, dirty and grimy environments makes it impossible for most competing sensors to operate and sense reliably and efficiently.

Electrical Power & Protection
Despite growing digitalisation, there are still many situations where analogue measured values such as the level in a tank or the temperature of a climatised room must be directly readable in the control cabinet or at the control desk. The current loop display is designed for precisely this purpose.
