MOXA - Smart Serial I/O Solutions
Dependable and Easy-to-Maintain Smart RS-485 Serial I/O
The smart serial RS-485 remote I/O is the perfect choice for cost-effective industrial monitoring and control applications. Serial remote I/O products offer process engineers the benefit of simple wiring, as they only use two wires to communicate with the controller or other RS-485 devices. The serial Remote I/O is designed for system integrators to acquire and control remote digital and analog devices over both RS-232 and RS-485 connections. 
Designed to Withstand Extreme Conditions
To provide greater protection, the I/O channels on the ioLogik R1200 series have 3Kv protection against outside electric shock. RS-485 and power port surge protection provides protection against electrostatic discharges and power surges.
Easy-to-use software interface for easy maintenance
With ioSearch software you can quickly access all of an ioLogik R1200 series device’s status information and settings in a user-friendly graphic interface. Moxa’s ioLogik R1200 lets you set up your communication interface using a simple software utility.
The safety contact mat, series ASK from ASO Safety Solutions, is used for safeguarding sections in hazardous areas around machines, presses, robots and other types of active equipment. Stepping on the mat surface triggers a control signal to the stop circuit of the potentially hazardous motion.
This fast contact occurs due to the area switch design on the inside of the mat. A single compound polyurethane material assures impermeability against oils, water and dirt. An anti-slip surface is also implemented into the design.
Optional checkered surfaces in aluminum or highgrade steel can be used in areas where high mechanical demand is placed on the upper mat surface.
Advanced I/O Module (AIM) station for Industrial Ethernet
Designed to provide dependable communication capabilities, the FGEN AIM station elevates digital inputs and outputs to industrial Ethernet networks. The FGEN is ideal for use in on-machine, fixed I/O applications in environments where conditions may not be conducive to traditional I/O.
The FGEN AIM station with Multiprotocol Technology features a unique operating system which allows more than one Ethernet protocol to be embedded on the device, eliminating the complexities of specifying or configuring the station based on the Ethernet host system.
This easy-to-deploy solution was developed to simplify industrial Ethernet for distributed I/O combining multiple Ethernet protocols—EtherNet/IP™, Modbus™ TCP and PROFINET®—in a single device.
The FGEN AIM station offers isolated power for inputs and outputs and several I/O configurations, including 16 inputs and 16 outputs and an eight input/output station.
The FGEN AIM station is available in TURCK’s rugged IP67-, 68- or 69K-rated housing for reliable operation in harsh environments.
- Multiprotocol I/O module for Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP™ and PROFINET
- PROFINET supports Fast Start-Up (FSU)

Series PF has a long-life in aggressive chemical environments.
Abrasive Fluids - Series PF maintains a long life even for abrasive fluids like pigmented paints and inks.
PISA is more cost-effective than electronic circuit breakers. PISA protected systems can work with smaller power supplies as 100% of the power supply current can be used for the application. “Bulky” as well as sensitive loads can be supplied from one common power supply. PISA saves space on the DIN-rail.
In addition to the over-current protection of the individual outputs, the PISA module also includes monitoring of the 24V supply voltage which is unique to all other products available. This monitor protects against voltage drops of the power supply voltage by actively limiting the current for less critical loads. The protection is conceptually independent of the lengths of wires or the characteristics of the power supply.

SMC - MGP Compact Guided Actuators
The MGP is designed for high side load applications found in material handling, lifting and stopping. The cylinder utilizes an ultra-compact design by incorporating the cylinder body as part of the guide body. As the stroke length increases, so does the bearing length, thus enhancing the cylinder's load bearing capacity.
Conventional designed guided cylinders have a set bearing length resulting in dramatic decreases in side load capacity as stroke lengths increase. The MGP is the latest generation of guided cylinders and offers higher load capability, longer strokes, 2 port locations, switch mounting grooves on two sides, and a more versatile T-slot mounting than the MGQ series. Order made options for this series include adjustable air cushions, heavy duty guide rods, copper free, high temperature, and low speed.
- Strokes up to 400mm
- 2 Guide type options: slide bearing and ball busing bearing
- 4 Mounting styles
