I/O system S20 and S67E – I/O systems for flexible automation
Content Real-time communication with the peripherals
With the increased networking of machines, the scope and importance of control peripherals are also growing. Bosch Rexroth provides users with a comprehensive and high-performance I/O portfolio for this purpose. The I/O systems S20 and S67E reduce the engineering effort by means of easy integration. With high performance thanks to very short update times and the highest synchronicity, they provide data communication in real time, allowing for higher control quality between the controller and peripherals. The fully modular design of the I/O systems provides with maximum flexibility for the economical realization of customized machine concepts.
- S20
IP20 I/O system S20 for the control cabinet
The I/O system S20 with protection class IP20 is the freely scalable I/O system for fast cycle times and maximum precision, whether installed locally in the embedded control XM from Rexroth or as a decentralized I/O station. IP20 I/O system S20 allows for real-time applications with the shortest cycle times. The fastest I/O technology available on the market is easy to install thanks to toolless wiring, and convenient to parameterize via the IndraWorks engineering framework from Rexroth. For constantly rapid and safe signal processing. For maximum availability and time-saving, safe automation.

- S67E
IP67E I/O system
The S67E I/O system supports the globally established IO-Link communication standard and thus enables future-proof machine topologies by connecting intelligent sensors and actuators. Due to the robust design with IP65/IP67 protection and high EMC immunity, the modules are ideally suited for field installation and enable maximum flexibility for individual solutions. Even under extreme ambient conditions, they offer reliable, machine-oriented installation without the need for a control cabinet.
- Protection class IP65/67
- IO-Link Master according to specification V1.1
- Open standard according to IEC61131-9 for integration of external devices
- Extended temperature range from -25 ... +60°C as standard
- Gateways for PROFINET and EtherCAT
- Preventive maintenance through operating hours counter/wear indicator/diagnosis
- Simple installation due to reduced wiring effort
- Connectivity
Flexible communication
Open communication standards allow you to perfectly integrate the I/O systems S20 and S67 with maximum availability. The modules can be flexibly integrated with the Sercos automation bus, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, Modbus or PROFIBUS.

- Integration
Easy Integration
The I/O components can be easily integrated into the Rexroth control hardware: By means of the direct side-by-side arrangement of the IP20 I/O system S20 or the integration of the decentralized IP67 I/O system S67 via a variety of fieldbus couplers, I/O integration in the embedded control XM embedded control hardware is very easy. With the IndraWorks engineering framework, all I/O modules can be conveniently parameterized – by standardized description files simply integrate into the control solutions.

- Synchronicity
The real-time processing of signals
The high-performance system bus in conjunction with the internationally standardized Sercos automation bus, sets the standard when it comes to speed: The update rates for signal processing are only 1 µs per module, depending on the version. External encoder measurement systems can thus be integrated in the control loop, without the need for an encoder cable to be laid to the control cabinet. However, they allow for the high-dynamic control of axes. At the same time, the high-speed modules solve challenging counting functions. The interplay of extremely short cycle times and fast signal processing reduce response time and increase measuring accuracy. And that enhances the control quality when in operation.

- Safety
On the safe side
The new safety modules IP20 I/O system S20 provide safe communication with CIP Safety on Sercos, or PROFIsafe on PROFINET and PROFIBUS.
The safe modules can be freely combined with standard modules and offer the same advantages of simple commissioning, high robustness and short cycle times. The S20 safety modules are certified according to SIL 3 (EN 61508), SILCL 3 (EN 62061) and category 4 / PL e (EN ISO 13849-1).
