Balluff BNI IOF-329-P02-Z038 Profisafe IO-Link Module

Balluff BNI IOF-329-P02-Z038 is a decentralized safety I/O module that provides PROFIsafe over IO-Link, enabling safe inputs and outputs to be connected through a Balluff IO-Link master to a PROFIsafe controller. The IP67-rated housing is built for demanding industrial environments, and the device configures its safety path through IO-Link, reducing wiring and simplifying safety architecture. The module runs PROFIsafe Version 2.4, with a safety level selected via the F_SIL parameter, allowing operation at SIL 2 or SIL 3 depending on the application requirements. For identification and ordering, the product name is BNI IOF-329-P02-Z038 and the order code is BNI0098. This Balluff module is designed to be used with compatible IO-Link masters and PROFIsafe-capable controllers to safely transmit interlock, emergency-stop, and other safety-related signals, integrating with standard IO-Link networks while maintaining safety integrity. It supports the typical Balluff safety ecosystem for automation where compact, robust, and safe I/O is needed on the machine or line level, helping to minimize down-time and wiring complexity in safety-critical installations.
