SLIO IS ...

3

• ... one of the world's most efficient, innovative and modern decentralized I / O systems,

• ... a newly developed system, targeted to the needs of our customers,

• ... efficient: It switches and detects even in the microsecond range.

SLIO is loved by customers who...

• want to modularize,

• want to standardize and

• want to remain flexible.

SLIO MAKES EVERYTHING SO EASY:

• Compact: Width 12,9 mm, height 109 mm, depth 76,5 mm

6

• Standardized: Direct mounting on 35 mm standard profile rail

• Extendable: SLIO is easily and flexibly extendable because of its modularity.

With up to 64 signal and function modules per interface.

SLIO MAKES EVERYTHING SO EASY :BECAUSE IT ADAPTS TO YOUR NEEDS.

• Open to all requirements: If tasks increase you can easily extend SLIO and thereby your

application and implementation due to its modularity.

7

• Open to other systems: SLIO can be fully integrated with other providers.

• Open to all languages

For example: PROFIBUS, PROFINET, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, CANopen and Modbus

TCP.

The reason for this: SLIO is ...

Apr 21, 2023

Whoever speaks many languages has a clear advantage.

• Suppose a German engineering company supplies its systems equipped with SLIO and for example

the VIPA CPU 315, to a global manufacturing company.

• In Europe his customer needs PROFINET as a communication basis. In the United States the type

of control must be an American one, which only speaks EtherNet / IP. And in Asia for example

everything runs via EtherCAT.

SLIO can easily be used for

all of them:

Only the coupler is changed.

SLIO MAKES EVERYTHING SO EASY :BECAUSE IT GETS ALONG ALL OVER THE WORLD

SLIO MAKES EVERYTHING SO EASY :FOOLPROOF IN HANDLING AND MAINTENANCE.

SLIO is the basis for error-free system control. It is so user friendly

that the local technician can even work on it without additionally

having to contact the builder or installation engineer of the system

•Very easy and safe assembly – no tools required.

•The electronic module is changeable without detaching the wiring.

9

• Diagnoses and channel conditions can be easily seen on the

module – due to the universally understandable LED-displays.

• Already when you set up you can clearly indicate which module

does what by means of the practical labeling strips.

• The clamp terminal assignment is printed under the labeling strips.

• All modules have a simple, space-saving, staircase-shaped

wiring level.

SLIO MAKES EVERYTHING SO EASY :EVEN ORDERING.

VIPA has greatly simplified the SLIO ordering process.

•You receive everything that is necessary for operation with one order number .

Regardles whether coupler or only modules.

•All modules can be ordered individually

(that is not the case with other providers).

•The power module is included with the order.

•SLIO does not need a terminator.

(So there is nothing extra that you need to think about when ordering).

SIMPLY SPECIAL.

Every module is a specialist.

SLIO MODULES: THE RIGHT TOOL FOR EVERY TASK

SLIO is a complete system made up out of the most diverse assemblies.

At the moment there are over 120 different

SLIO articles, for example:

•Analog and digital inputs and outputs,

•Communication processor modules,

•Coupler modules,

•Potential distributer modules,

•Power modules,

•Temperature modules.

And VIPA continuously develops new,

extraordinary assemblies.

SPECIALISTS IN THEIR FIELDS

• Microsecond accurate

measurement and detection of

moving objects (speed and

aquisition period).

• That is, it prevents all time

accuracy errors, which are

caused by the fieldbus and

CPU cycle.

• This innovation is unique for a

decentralized system.

13

• These special function

modules are designed

specifically for counting. And in

this task they can hardly be

beaten.

• They support fast counting

tasks up to 1 MHz.

• The counting direction is

invertible as well.

ETS (Edge Timestamp System) Counter modules

• Specially designed to process

the data of an encoder with

SSI interface.

• This allows for extremely

precise work.

FEATURES

The power modules do their work perfectly:

•They separate the potential groups.

•If necessary, they provide for a refresh of the power supply.

But these general features are also of interest to you:

•The interface modules come including replaceable power module.

Locking hook

Bus terminal

• General isolation from electronic and installation level.*

• Optimal placement of the interfaces for space saving

connections.**

• Galvanic isolation between fieldbus and backplane bus.

• DIP-switches for address configuration with transparent cover.

• Electrical isolation between fieldbus and input/output level.

A SLIO Power Module

Apr 21, 2023

TECHNICAL DATA

• Max. 10 amp. current carrying capacity per terminal (terminal module)

• 24 V DC power supply for sensors and actuators and for electronics modules

• Load capacity up to 10 amp. total current

• Very fast data transfer on the backplane bus of 48 Mbit/s

• Very fast response time of up to 20 µs

• High modularity with 2, 4 and 8-channel modules

• Up to 3 amp. power supply for signal and function modules

16

The backplane bus transfers data not only faster, better and safer, but also takes care of the power supply.

CONSTRUCTED FOR „YOU OUT THERE“.

Before we developed SLIO we asked our customers what, in

their opinion, an I/O systen must be able to do.

•It should be compact, modular and easy to maintain.

•Best EMC: This means SLIO works error-free in the given

electromagnetic environment. Without being influenced by the

environment. And without greatly affecting the environment.

The result was the most innovative I/O system of its time.

The consequence: Once people have changed to SLIO, they

stay with it.

CONSTRUCTED FOR „YOU OUT THERE“.

SLIO is and will remain there for you.

• Durable: Recently VIPA once again significantly increased the quality

of their suppliers.

• Future-proof: SLIO will be permanently on the market, because the

technology is 100% in the hands of VIPA.

• And: SLIO is extremely affordable, expandable and modifiable.

Is innovative, remains innovative.

• VIPA permanently perfects the SLIO product portfolio. In the future

there will also be again and again new, innovative modules that allow

the SLIO system to be ahead of its time.

• Thus a unique SLIO CPU is already in development.

TODAY AND IN FUTURE.

SLIO IS SO VERSATILE, THAT IN MANY CASES YOU CAN EVEN SAVE A PLC.

Industrial Ethernet

Modbus-TCP

Teleservice

Example : Data is collected via SLIO and sent via the Teleservice module by email or SMS.

SLIO

There are many tasks that can be

solved with SLIO and a panel or a

Teleservice module.

Or of course this way: On the engineering level a

PLC is communicated with as head end, which is

connected to SLIO.

SLIOPLC

Example: Aquisition of temperatures, pressures, speeds or similar data, which is processed in the PLC and then relayed to a control system.

Extremely good at languages!

SLIO understands them all, from PROFIBUS and PROFINET, via EtherCAT and

EtherNet/IP, up to Modbus TCP, CANopen and DeviceNet. And so SLIO is usable all over

the world.

Extremely fast!

Due to the data transmission of 48 MBit/s on the backplane bus.

Extremely robust!

On account of its high quality and the exceptional

electromagnetic compatibility.

And above all: extremely easy!

No I/O system makes the work easier for you and your co-workers

and reduces to such an extent the time it takes

and the sources of error.

What do you think? Do you have a use for these extremes?

SLIO IS INDEED SOMETHING SPECIAL.
