  • Page 9: Product Description

    Product Description General description The versions of the vacuum switch and pressure switch in the VSi series are referred to only as the switch below. The VSi-series switch can be operated in two operating modes. Users can choose between direct connection to discrete inputs (standard I/O = SIO mode) or connection through the communication line (IO link Class A).

    The switch functions as a passive NFC tag which can be read by a reader, e.g. smart phone or tablet. With the NFC applications by Schmalz, the information is displayed using a mobile website in the browser, therefore an app is not required. The smartphone must only have NFC activated and be connected to the internet.

    (also see the data dictionary). If the resulting set of parameters are not valid in the new mode (e.g. hysteresis too big in window mode), it is not possible to switch the mode. 30.30.01.00956/01 www.schmalz.com EN | 29...

    (e.g. a suction circuit with Schmalz SCP FS-RP-series ejectors). With such a system, the VSi can measure the vacuum leakage in millibars per second between two drainage cycles. The switching point is then activated when a leakage exceeds its maximum permissible setting, which can be configured.

    The electrical characteristic of the switch outputs can be switched between PNP switching (“plus switching” or also 24V switching) and NPN switching (“zero switching” or also GND switching). Both switching outputs can always be set together, which does not affect the IO-link operation. 30.30.01.00956/01 www.schmalz.com EN | 31...

    This is also possible in the operating menu via the EF/rct menu item. The non-volatile storage of the counter statuses only occurs every 500 steps. That means that when the operating voltage is switched off, up to 499 steps of the counter are lost. 30.30.01.00956/01 www.schmalz.com EN | 35...
