Pepperl+Fuchs offers a wide selection of sensor types with integrated AS-Interface.

Different designs are available with NC or NO contact function. Sensors with AS-Interface provide additional functions such as a failure warning indication and coil breakage indication.

On photoelectric sensors, parameters can be used for light-on/dark-on switching.

Pepperl+Fuchs rotary encoders are fitted with 4 AS-Interface chips that enable the transfer of 16 bits during every cycle.

Special sensor designs with two input signals for “open”/ “closed” are available for position monitoring. Power for the valve solenoid and the sensors is supplied from AS-Interface.

Vibration forks with integrated AS-Interface are used for fill level monitoring.
