Festo MS6-E2M: Intelligent Air Monitoring System

The MSE6-E2M is an intelligent pneumatic service unit for optimizing the use of compressed air. Equipped with measurement, control and diagnostic functions, the MSE6-E2M supports energy-efficient operation of pneumatic systems. The MSE6-E2M detects increased compressed air consumption in the standard production cycle which may be caused by leakages, for example, and enables targeted system. Supports EtherNet/IP, PROFINET IO and EtherCAT.

Product Description

The MSE6-E2M is an intelligent pneumatic service unit for optimizing the use of compressed air as an en­ergy medium in industrial automation technology.

Equipped with measurement, control and diagnostic functions, the MSE6-E2M supports energy-efficient operation of pneumatic systems. The MSE6-E2M detects increased compressed air consumption in the standard production cycle which may be caused by leakages, for example, and enables targeted system maintenance. Furthermore, the MSE6-E2M detects when the produc­ tion plant is in a standby state and stops the supply of compressed air in order to prevent unnecessary compressed air consumption.  The MSE6-E2M can also be used as a process monitoring module by enabling flow and pressure values to be transferred directly to the machine controller via a fieldbus connection, where they can be analysed.
