Siemens Digital I/O Module AS-I K45

Bridge the gap between your low-level network and industrial communication protocols using this AS-I adapter from Siemens. It handles the transmission of data from sensors and actuators on an AS-I network to higher-level protocols like PROFIBUS and PROFINET. Designed to monitor integral safety devices, this unit's handy for emergency stop push buttons and safety door switches in heavy-engineering settings. As it has four inputs, you can connect multiple devices at once to get streamlined signal monitoring. The module's integrated addressing socket gives you free rein to adjust its operating mode.

• Integrated LED signals for convenient status monitoring

An AS-I network is a low-level industrial communication protocol that uses a simple two-wire design to transmit signals. This makes it suitable for handling basic tasks like binary data and signals directly from a sensor or actuator.

You can connect your sensors by plugging them into the built-in M12 sockets.
