B&R X67 decentralised I/O modules are sealed to IP67
With no need for installation in a switching cabinet, the X67 I/O system from B&R offers complete freedom to use various control topologies and is claimed to perform as fast as a centralised system. Because of their IP67 protection, the compact X67 modules can be installed anywhere on the machine, and provide high performance and ruggedness even in harsh conditions. The X67 system can span over 25km (up to 100m between modules), so users are not limited with regard to placement of the modules.
High versatility is ensured by the ability to set parameters freely for the digital inputs and outputs and to connect to all standard fieldbus systems.
There is clear potential for users to reduce costs using the decentralised I/O philosophy. Installation, cabling and commissioning are made much easier and faster. The exceptional durability of the X67 System also provides excellent investment security.
