Siko AP10
Product Information
Electronic position indicator AP10
With interface
The AP10 position indicator with communication interface is used for monitored format adjustment to reduce setup times and increase machine efficiency. Readability is optimized for intuitive user prompting: The backlit display clearly shows the setpoint and actual value, and the two LEDs clearly indicate the direction in which the adjustment must be made. The IO link interface enables easy and reliable integration into modular machines
