Identification Systems

Identification systems are used for object identification. They can be used to automate manufacturing processes and to control the entire logistics of merchandising management through flexible networking. This reduces throughput times and makes variant manufacturing more flexible. Pepperl+Fuchs offers a comprehensive range of electromagnetic identification systems (RFID). Object identification is also possible using barcodes and data matrix codes.


AS Interface

 

The Actuator/Sensor Interface (AS-Interface) is a replacement for conventional wiring systems, designed to significantly reduce installation and startup times while increasing diagnostics. AS-Interface utilizes a 2-conductor flat cable to supply power to field device (I/O blocks, encoders, and even safety devices.) Installations based on AS-Interface posses several advantages including:

Only one 2-conductor cable is needed to connect hundreds of I/O points
Standard I/O and safety devices coexist on a single network
Superior noise immunity
Fast and deterministic update times

AS-Interface ensures reliable data transmission in demanding industrial applications. The unshielded, non-terminated network allows adding and moving I/O points any time, even under power.



Accessories

Pepperl+Fuchs offers many types of accessories for mounting and connecting all sensor types. These accessories not only save time during initial installation – they also save time and labor when sensors have to be serviced or replaced. And when demanding ambient conditions are present, the right accessory from Pepperl+Fuchs can also significantly increase the operating life of your sensor components.
At Pepperl+Fuchs, you’ll find everything you need for your sensor systems:

Plug connectors
Cordsets
Mounting accessories
Multi-port junction boxes
Reflectors…and more


 

Logic Control Units

Our Logic Control devices provide a multitude of features for use in the automation industry. Frequently, discrete sensor or analog signals need to be conditioned for display or monitoring functions in a process. To help you solve these signal conversion problems, we offer a wide range of indicators, counters/ timers, tachometers and other secondary switching devices, specifically designed for applications and used in conjunction with proximity sensors.

When it comes to signal and discrete pulse control and display, Pepperl+Fuchs offers you a broad line of logic and control products.
