Intelligent Proximity Switches with IQ-Sense
Simple to Use, Simply Profitable
Sensors and PLCs are coming together
Thanks to intelligent integration to the PLC, IQ-Sense can now be used to implement
significantly more flexibility and reliability of the sensors. Integrated data
communication means many advantages for both plant engineering and operation.
For example, the new IntelliTeach® function enables fast commissioning by
machine and plant engineers, since all settings for the IQ Sense devices can
be set using the PLC. Values set once on a sensor can be transmitted to other
sensors without problems. Sensors can be exchanged during operation without
any extra work since the PLC automatically reestablishes all sensor settings.
Furthermore, IQ-Sense permits channel-specific system diagnostics. Wire break,
short-circuit, maladjustment or module/sensor failure are automatically signaled,
and parameterization errors are avoided. It is therefore possible to reduce
downtimes and to increase plant availability.
