NXR Series IP67 Remote IO with IO-Link from Omron

A flexible remote IO solution that simplifies IIoT adoption 

The NXR Remote IO series provides value across multiple positions in an organization. From supply chain being able to reduce model numbers and inventory, to simplifying setup time for automation engineers, the NXR series offers a flexible Remote IO solution allowing companies to realize the value of IIoT more easily. The NXR configuration flexibility allows IO-Link and digital IO to be combined easily into one part number.

The NXR is available in two separate network models, EtherNetIP for data-intensive applications and ease of connecting to third-party controllers, and EtherCAT for simplifying setup and configuration. The EtherCAT model offers market-first PC-less maintenance and setup, making field replacement fast and easy with technicians not needing to rely on PCs.
