Through the web IOs, classic automation components and various metrics communicate with other machines, end devices, systems or clouds. Thanks to the OPC UA industry protocol, the corresponding data can be integrated as OPC UA nodes in numerous IoT and Industry 4.0 applications – regardless of the platform being used, the manufacturer of the devices involved, or the complexity of the application.
With Web-IOs 4.0 Digital, 24V or 230V switching signals can also be acquired and monitored from older applications over the network. They also act as network remote switches.
Web-IOs 4.0 Analog provides analog inputs and outputs from classic components over the network. For example, external sensors can be read or actuators can be controlled. Thanks to the web thermometers, sensor data such as temperature, air pressure and humidity, as well as CO2 concentration, can be easily recorded and integrated into Industry 4.0 applications.
In addition to web standards like HTTP(S), email, and FTP, all Web IOs also support MQTT, REST, Modbus TCP, and OPC DA up to the comprehensive socket API. In a compact housing with DIN rail holder, they are ideal for mounting in the control cabinet or under-distribution.
The entire Web-IO series can be found under Information – Web-IO. All devices can be tested for free for 30 days.
Wiesemann & Theis GmbH was founded in 1979 by Reinhard Wiesemann and Rüdiger Theis. With 50 employees, the company produces interface and network technology at its plant in Wuppertal. In 2001, Wiesemann & Theis introduced the Web Thermometer, the first industrial temperature sensor with a network interface that draws on more than twenty years of experience in the technologies used by Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things.
