Starting in July 2025, users of the Smartline™ series will benefit from a significant upgrade: All models will be equipped with an upgraded EtherCAT module.
This enhancement not only offers significantly expanded functionality but also provides a more user-friendly experience in day-to-day operation.
The upgrade applies to all models from serial number 25004917 onward. The updated ESI file is already available for download on our website.
Enhanced Functionality
Thanks to full support for the Thyracont Communication Protocol V2, additional diagnostic and maintenance features are now available. These include, for example, the ability to read out sensor wear parameters – a major advantage for predictive maintenance.
In addition, firmware updates can now be conveniently installed via the EtherCAT interface – without having to remove the device or use any external programming hardware. This saves time, reduces maintenance costs, and increases overall system reliability.
More Performance – Better Price
Despite the enhanced features, the price of the upgraded devices has been reduced. A clear advantage for all who prioritize precision, long-term reliability, and cost-efficiency.
High-Precision Vacuum Measurement for Networked Processes
The digital vacuum transducers of the Smartline™ series enable highly accurate measurements across a wide range – from rough vacuum to high vacuum. They ensure reliable control of industrial vacuum processes even in demanding environments.
All transducers have a RS485 interface and either an additional 0-10 V output, PROFINET or the now the upgraded EtherCAT® interface. This makes them ideally suited for seamless integration into smart manufacturing environments and Industry 4.0 applications.
