io-key
Time to be creative!
Minimum requirements, maximum benefit: 24 V and a mobile network – that's all the io-key needs to do its job. If both are available the IoT gateway sends the data directly from IO-Link sensors to the cloud. It does not matter to the io-key if it is in a sea container, in a supply silo in the middle of hectares of arable land or in a remote machine far from existing IT infrastructures.
In other words: With the io-key the IIoT is always there where you need it. This opens up new opportunities in process monitoring – and innovative approaches for increased customer service.
