WIKA PSD-4-ECO Wiring Definition & IO-Link Register Description

Kommunikation: IO-Link 1.1, COM2 (38.4 kbit/s), minimum cycle time 2.3 MS, Port Class A. IO-Link only available on PNP models; NPN versions do NOT support IO-Link.

Stecker: M12×1, available as 4-pin (single switch) and 5-pin (dual switch + analogue) Varianten.

1. M12 Pin Assignment (Text-based Wiring Diagram)

1) 4-Stift M12 (Single switch SP1, IO-Link optional)

2) 5-Stift M12 (Dual switch SP1+SP2, analogue / IO-Link optional)

✅ IO-Link Wiring Key Points:

1. IO-Link uses pin 4 (C/Q), power via pin1 & Pin3. No extra signal wire required.
2. Hardware multiplex of IO-Link and SP1. Device automatically switches to IO-Link mode when connected to IO-Link master.
3. Kabel: Standard shielded IO-Link M12 cable, max. Länge 20 M.
4. Master port: Port Class A.

⚠️ Wiring Prohibitions:

No AC power input; avoid reverse polarity of U+/U-.

4–20 mA analogue is 3-wire; S+ must NOT be shorted to power.

PNP-Ausgang: Hohes Niveau (~24V) when switched ON; NPN pulls to 0V when ON (NPN without IO-Link).

2. IO-Link Process Data (PD, Cyclic Real-Time Data)

Prozessdatenlänge: 4-byte input PD (Slave → Master); No output PD (Master cannot write cyclic process data).

Datenformat: Big-Endian, Float32 IEEE754. Pressure unit follows device internal setting (Bar / MPa / psi).

Process data only transmits pressure value. Switch status, temperature and diagnostics are read via ISDU indexed parameters.

3. IO-Link ISDU Index Registers (Acyclic Read/Write, Master Parameter Access)

Index + Subindex. R=Read-only; RW=Read-Write

System Command

4. IO-Link Commissioning Notes
5. IODD File: Download PSD-4-ECO IODD from WIKA official website. Import into IO-Link master software for automatic identification, no manual index entry required.
6. Power-up sequence: 1s boot time before IO-Link handshake.
7. Read/Write workflow:

Read live pressure: Read cyclic process data PD

Modify switch threshold: ISDU write 0xB0 (SP1 setpoint), 0xB1 (reset point)

Read switch status: ISDU read index 0x90, 0x91

4. Common IO-Link communication faults

Handshake failure: Check pin4 wiring; confirm PNP IO-Link version; Überprüfen Sie die Versorgungsspannung

Parameter write not effective: Some parameters require save command, others take effect immediately

Unstable pressure reading: Increase Signal Damping filter time

5. Normal Mode (Non-IO-Link) Wiring Summary

Without IO-Link master, pin4 of 4-pin /5-pin connector works as standard PNP SP1 output. SP2 is second switch output; S+ is 4–20mA /0–10V analogue output for direct connection to PLC analogue module.

WIKA PSD-4 Series Full Model Portfolio List

The PSD-4 series contains two main product lines: PSD-4 (Standard-Industrie, PE81.86) and PSD-4-ECO (OEM Economy, PE81.69). Both are programmable electronic pressure switches with display, sharing similar hardware architecture, differing in temperature rating, Verpackung, pre-configuration capability and accuracy class.

This is a modular selection system. There is no fixed single part number. Complete order model is assembled by: [Basismodell + Druckbereich + Ausgabe + IO-Link + Prozessanbindung + Siegel + Zertifikate].

6. PSD-4 vs PSD-4-ECO Core Comparison

11. Auswahlnotizen
12. IO-Link is only available for PNP output variants. NPN hardware does not support IO-Link.
13. ECO is designed for OEM volume orders. Limited stock for single unit purchase. For project spares, PSD-4 standard is preferred.
14. All models support local 3-button configuration. IO-Link versions support remote read/write parameters. The IODD register definitions are largely identical for PSD-4 and PSD-4-ECO.
15. Explosionsschutz: Intrinsically safe versions are separate product lines outside PSD-4 family. PSD-4 / PSD-4-ECO are non-explosion-proof by default.
