ifm is a key partner in CTP environnement's wastewater treatment plant, demonstrating its commitment to environmental sustainability. The pressure and level sensors from ifm are an integral part of the plant and communicate seamlessly with the PLC via IO-Link.

The instrumentation installed in the wastewater treatment plant relies on ifm's capacitive level sensors to effectively monitor the water levels in the tanks, increasing the reliability and control of the entire wastewater treatment process. Several strategically placed pressure sensors ensure accurate monitoring at various points, contributing to the overall efficiency of the container.

The use of IO-Link brings significant benefits such as streamlined centralisation of sensor signals, reducing wiring and programming. CTP environnement attests to the remarkable benefits of IO-Link, mentioning improved safety, performance, and the potential for future applications in other quarries.

IO-Link systems from ifm

Point-to-point communication with IO-Link systems from ifm

IO-Link has been developed by leading sensor, actuator and control manufacturers. The result is a standardised and fieldbus independent interface for automation. This provides the user with point-to-point connections without complex addressing. Binary switches that used to be limited to simple switching signals or analogue values have developed into smart sensors.

The latest success stories

The inspiring application reports, case studies and video reports from all industries show how our customers successfully save costs with solutions from ifm. At the same time, the efficiency and functionality of machines can often be increased.
