USi^®-safety Ultrasonic System for Category 3 PL d

Where the boundaries between the real and digital worlds are blurred, there exists a space for new ideas and hybrid concepts: Bolstered by this motif, the automation specialists at Pepperl+Fuchs are now combining their exhibit at the SPS trade show in Nuremberg (November 23 – 25, 2021; Hall 7A, Stand 330) with the company's free "Digital Expo" digital show (November 15 – 26, 2021) for the very first time. The aim of the project is to establish an interplay between the respective advantages of analog and digital communication under the motto "Your Future Automation" and to transform both events into a holistic hybrid experience for visitors.

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is revolutionizing the industrial automation market. Previously, only simple switching signals were exchanged locally with a control panel, but detailed status data can now be made available worldwide in the cloud using technologies such as IO-Link and OPC UA. The resulting transparency right through to the sensor or actuator is opening up completely new possibilities for smart applications in the field of Industry 4.0.

Pepperl+Fuchs is Expanding its Product Portfolio for Ultrasonic Sensors in the Area of Factory Automation with the Safe USi-safety Ultrasonic Sensor System.

Pepperl+Fuchs and its subsidiaries VMT and ecom are pioneering a new event format with their first "Digital Expo" virtual trade fair. The free event will take place from April 19 to 23, 2021, and offers new and existing customers a compact, entirely digital insight into the current range of products and solutions from the specialists in industrial sensors and explosion protection.

Ultrasonic sensors have rapidly gained popularity in recent years—what was once a niche product has now become a key technology that can be found almost everywhere in the automation sector.

In the age of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), plants, products, and systems are becoming increasingly networked. The intelligent combination of IT and OT in industrial environments forms the basis for transparent and efficient processes and reduced production costs, making it possible to tap into completely new business segments.

Pepperl+Fuchs invites you to its second Online Summit. Register now free of charge to gain access to the fully digital event, which will be held on November 17–19, 2020.
