If you want to connect intelligent sensors and actuators directly in the field without adding a control cabinet for every connection, the Solidot IOL7A-PN01B-8A is an IP67 master that collects eight IO-Link devices and brings them into the controller as a single PROFINET participant.
🏭 Typical applications
Sensors right at the machine: With IP67 and M12 connectors, the master sits on the machine instead of in the cabinet. You save the sensor cables back to the cabinet and the terminals inside it.
Format changes without manual work: IO-Link transmits not just the switching state but parameters too. The controller writes new switch points into the sensors during a recipe change — nobody needs a screwdriver at the machine anymore.
Diagnostics instead of troubleshooting: Every port has overcurrent protection and its own status LED. A channel problem shows up in TIA Portal, not only after measuring through the plant.
Mixed operation: Not every sensor needs to speak IO-Link. The ports also accept classic digital signals — up to 16 inputs or up to 16 outputs, PNP switching.
🔌 Connections and channels
Device side: 8 x M12, A-coded, 5-pin — IO-Link Class A, transmission rates COM1 (4.8 kBd), COM2 (38.4 kBd) and COM3 (230.4 kBd).
Bus side: 2 x M12, D-coded, 4-pin. 100 Mbit/s, up to 100 m between two stations, 500 V AC galvanic isolation. Shielded cable from Cat 5 recommended.
Supply: 2 x M12, L-coded, 5-pin — sensor supply US and actuator supply UA are run separately and can be looped through to the next module. Up to 9 A is permitted per path, the module itself draws ≤ 100 mA from US. Reverse polarity protection is built in.
Digital channels: Up to 16 inputs (PNP, fixed 3 ms input filter) or up to 16 outputs (PNP, pin 4: 0.5 A, pin 2: 2 A, resistive and inductive loads).
🌐 Configuration
The master registers as a PROFINET participant and is integrated in the engineering tool via Solidot's GSDML file — in TIA Portal just as with other manufacturers' controllers. You then parameterize the IO-Link devices below it through the master, acyclically from the user program or via the engineering tool.
🔧 Mounting and environment
Screw mounting, 226 mm x 63 mm x 33 mm, 0.65 kg, IP67 protection rating. Supply 24 V DC (18 – 30 V). The operating temperature range is -25 °C to +70 °C, storage -40 °C to +85 °C, up to 95% relative humidity without condensation is permitted. This makes the module suitable for outdoor areas, wash-down zones and unheated halls.
