Air humidity/temperature sensor with IO-Link

June 2021 Sensors & Transducers

Turck now offers cost-effective condition monitoring in the field and IIoT applications with its first combined air humidity/temperature sensor, which is easy to integrate thanks to the IO-Link interface. The combination of the two measured variables, air humidity and temperature, in a single device, makes the CMTH-M12 ideal for use in the condition monitoring systems of machines and plants, or for monitoring the climatic conditions in production halls and warehouses in a wide range of sectors – from the automobile industry to the semiconductor and food industries, right through to agriculture.

The sensor monitors two limit value ranges, each with a minimum and maximum value, for outputting a warning signal in the event of an out-of-range value. The bidirectional IO-Link interface can also be used for the transfer of parameter data as well as warning and status messages, such as operating hours. Conventional switching outputs are also provided as an alternative.

When used in combination with Turck’s multiprotocol I/O devices, user and analysis data can be transferred over separate Ethernet protocols. While I/O modules transfer the user data to a higher-level controller via Ethernet/IP or Profinet, Modbus/TCP can be used as a parallel channel for analysis data. This information can also be provided for mobile access worldwide via Turck’s edge gateways and cloud systems.
