Festo expands low cost EtherNet/IP connectivity to IO-Link devices

The CTEU-EP universal interface module from Festo makes EtherNet/IP connectivity low cost and plug and play for IO-Link devices and Festo valve terminals. The CTEU-EP is ODVA conformant and a Rockwell Encompass referenced product.
For maximum flexibility, OEMs can cost effectively integrate IO-Link devices such as pressuFesto re and flow sensors, RFID readers, and light stacks along with a valve terminal with up to 64 solenoid coils. With a splitter, two-valve terminals can be served.

Features of the CTEU-EP include:
• Economical IO-Link interface
• Simple plug and work commissioning
• Flexible configurations of valve terminals with up to 64 solenoid coils
• Compatible with five different Festo valve families
• Fail safe modes allow systems to hold last state in case of network fault
• Diagnostics on board
• Under voltage
• Short circuits
• Extendable to include inputs using optional CAPC  splitter
• Rated to IP65 and IP67

The CTEU-EP connects to a range of Festo valve terminals, including VTUG, VTUB, MPA-L, VTOC, and CPV for greater flexibility. In harsh environment applications, CTEU-EP can interface EtherNet/IP to the MPA-C IP69K rated valve terminal. CTEU-EP is also compatible with other Festo products such as the CTSL input module, SDAT cylinder position transmitter, OVEM vacuum generator, VPPM pressure regulator, CMMO-LK stepper motor controller, and to a number of pressure sensors.

The CTEU family of universal interface modules is compatible with other leading fieldbuses, including DeviceNet, Modbus TCP, EtherCAT, ProfibusDP, Profinet, CANopen, and CC-Link. In addition, CTEU modules can be connected via CANopen to Festo CPX-CEC front end control.
